蒙顶植茶人物演变与社会文化背景

中国茶文化史上，有栽种茶树第一人——甘露禅师吴理真之说，或表述为“西汉时，甘露禅师吴理真结庐于四川蒙山亲植茶树，是佛教徒种茶的最早记载。”本文依据相关历史资料，进行考证，认为蒙顶产茶记载于唐代；五代至北宋记载中的蒙顶植茶人具有道教文化的内涵；蒙山甘露禅师出现于北宋；自南宋至清代记载中的蒙顶植茶人具有佛教文化的内涵；吴理真是宋代从岭表至蒙山的僧侣，因有灵异而被南宋孝宗敕封；明代杨慎的记载，进一步确证了“宋甘露禅师行状碑”的真实性，并补充了关于吴理真的生平，吴理真之所以被敕封是因为有灵异，而不是种茶；蒙顶植茶人吴理真是当地农民的观点出现于现代；蒙顶植茶人身份的变化反映的是各时代的社会文化背景。茶文化史上“吴理真是西汉时在蒙顶植茶之人的观点”是错误的。作为茶文化工作者有必要厘正茶史，以免谬论遗于后代。
