廟貌造型獨特 觀音庇祐平安 吉貝觀音寺成為吉貝地標

  (記者宋國正報導)至今已有一百多歷史的吉貝觀音寺,因廟貌造型獨特,不時吸引前往旅遊的善信焚香膜拜,祈求平安。而矗立在島上東、西方位的東鐘、西殼,由於有一段鮮為人知的神奇傳說,除象徵當地人文特色之外,也成為吉貝島的地標,當地居民說:今年前往觀賞、拍照留念人潮不亞於吉貝沙尾。

  位於白沙島北方的吉貝島,島上地勢平坦,耕地廣大,光復後由於政府的積極獎勵及輔導,農漁業長足的發展,曾有「小美國」之稱號,相傳一百多年前,吉貝島民偶見東方海面出現一片萬丈紅光,十分燦爛,懷疑海中出現寶物,引起全島居民駕著漁船競相趕赴現場查看,僅在海面上發現一尊慈祥面的觀音華祖金身,隨即在村民開會決議,將之供奉於武聖廟內奉祀,隨後即在地方紳士呂軒、謝如兩倡議下而募款興建,名為觀音寺。該亭曾於清光緒十四年及民國三十四年、三十九年重建,又於民國六十一年改造三仙門,寺後建一座小花園,左右抱兩廊,由於廟齡老舊,在民國七十九年再度重建,並於民國八十六年舉行落成典禮展現新貌。

  據當地居民說,自從供奉觀音佛祖後,村內經神靈庇佑,不僅合境平安、五殼豐收外,就是從事生產製造也日新月異,使得全村民眾生活更覺溫飽。一日,觀音佛祖神蹟再次顯現,於夢中指點村內耆老,指示為加速當地的繁榮景象,必須在村內東方興建一座像石塔,以鐘為標誌,並在西方興建一座以「殼」為標誌的建築物安鎮,同時書有東方龍馬壯山河及西境海雲飛日月,象徵吉貝觀光歷久不衰,也成為當地的人文特色。

  觀音寺不僅為當地宗教信仰中心,同時亦在寺後建造一座小花園,左右抱兩廊,並於廟前建造一座暮鼓、晨鐘亭,以配合觀光旅遊勝地,供遊人觀賞。據當地居民流傳的說法是,吉貝嶼能有今天的繁榮,全拜安置東鐘、西殼所賜,因此才有東方龍馬壯山河、西境海雲飛日月象徵精神標誌留存至今。
