摘　　要：云南大理的本主神中有个"大黑天神",其神格为瘟神。这位神灵来自古印度教的湿婆崇拜。瘟神在许多民族的神话体系中都存在,是现实中曾出现过的瘟疫灾难的历史记忆。在云南这个烟瘴之地,历史上瘟疫流行,瘟神信仰在抗击瘟疫的过程中曾发挥巨大作用,帮助人们对抗瘟疫流行所带来的心理焦虑。直到今天,瘟神神话仍有心理安慰、族群凝聚和审美等实用价值。In Dali of Yunnan Province there is a major god named Heavenly God Dahei- God of Plague. The god stems from ancient Hinduism＇s worship of Siva. God of Plague appears in the legends of many ethnicities,and history records his images in plagues and disasters. Yunnan used to be a place of hidden disasters and plagues,and thus the faith in God of Plague has played a key role in increasing people＇s confidence in fighting against plagues and relieving their anxiety. Even today legends of God of Plague are still significant in psychological comfort,ethnic cohesion and aesthetics.
