摘　　要："祅"与"祆"二字由于字形相仿,极易混淆,所以在实际应用中,经常会出现错误。其实"祅"从"夭",通"妖";"祆"从"天",音xiān,主要是指与火祆教有关的事物名。历史上经常有借"祅道"之名发生的暴动与叛乱,此"祅道"即"妖道",大多与民间信仰或邪教有关,而非"祆道",也即不是与火祆教有关。Chinese words ＂Yao＂ and ＂Xian＂ are easy to get confused because of their resemblance in charac- ter patterns, so, mistakes often ＂Yao＂, which is interchangeab occur in the practical application. In fact, ＂Yao＂ comes from its homophone le with another ＂Yao＂ with the meaning of evil spirit, whereas ＂Xian＂ comes from ＂heaven＂, pronounced as ＂ Xian＂, mainly connected with Zoroastrianism. In history, many riots and re- beUions have broken out in the name of ＂evil spirit＂, namely, diabolism, mostly related to the folk belief and heresy, rather than zoroastrisme or Zoroastrianism.
