Chapter 292: Overthrow the Han Dynasty to Create a Prosperous World
Outside the main hall, a group of Taoist priests and Taoists from the Five Bucket Rice Road on Heming Mountain gathered together to listen intently to the Taiping Road that came to visit the mountain gate. Although this Ma Xiang and Zhao Yi are now famous Taoists who faintly have the Taiping Dao, the first sect in the world, it is not indispensable for them to humbly listen to each other's Taoism, but the other party personally visited the mountain gate at this time, and the meaning is different.
Personally come to the door to talk about Taoism, this is quite a kind of going to the mountain gate to smash the field, in this case, of course, these Taoist priests and Taoist aunts of the Wudoumi Sect can't really listen to Taoism so simply. They listened attentively, and naturally they found the wrong meaning of the Taoist debate in the words of the Taiping Taoist who came to talk about the Tao, so that they could fight back and slap this Taiping Dao in the face to correct their Taoist name.
After all, now, it can only be said that there is a well-known Wudou Midao in Shudi, compared with the Taiping Dao where there are Taoist believers in the thirteen states of the world, even if they have the blessing of Zhang Daoling's name, but in front of the Taiping Dao, they are like a poor dick who has nothing in the future to be talked to by Gao Fu Shuai in public. Of course, this heart is unbalanced, so naturally I always have to think of the "rich and handsome" who slaps Taiping Dao in the face, and I can't say that they slapped Taiping Dao in the face, and it spread out, and their reputation rose to attract more Taoist believers, thus strengthening their five buckets of rice Dao.
I saw that the tall Taoist among the two yellow-robed Taoists got up and shook his Taoist robes, then took a wooden pole from his side and walked to the middle of the hall on crutches. This is not to say that he has a disability in his leg, but this thing indicates his status in Taiping Dao, when Zhang Jiao first built Taiping Dao, he held a self-made nine-section scepter, reciting Fu Zhu to preach.
What is a blessing?
There are clouds in "Shuowen Jie Zi", "Wisher, mantra also", Fu Zhu has the same meaning as "Fu Ma" and "Fu Mantra", that is, the meaning of the mantra to be recited when preaching. In the era of the Yellow Emperor, the blessing and the curse are not separated, and the official position of the Yellow Emperor is also called the curse, so the spell used in the spell is the greeting of the ancient sorcerer when he sacrificed to the gods.
Zhang Jiao preached, holding a nine-section scepter, and passed on the blessing of the charm, relying on teaching the patient to kowtow and think about it, and then drink it with the words of the talisman water mixed with medicine. If those patients happen to be able to heal themselves because of the accurate addition of medicine, Zhang Jiao will tell that person that person believes in the Tao and has a relationship with the Tao; But if he is not healed, then he says that he is not a believer and has no connection with the word.
Among these people, most of those who have recovered from their illness have believed in the Taiping Dao, and those who have not been cured will not blame the Taiping Dao, but most of them will blame themselves for introspection, so as to become more committed to the Tao, and then join the Taiping Dao. After all, in the Han Dynasty, although the people could sing and read from pre-Qin classics such as the Book of Songs, it was difficult to learn too esoteric knowledge, and Zhang Jiao used the superstitious ideas of the Han Dynasty people, as well as the support of some powerful families behind Zhang Jiao, Taiping Dao could of course resurrect after the rebellion against the Han Dynasty, and grew rapidly, and the power was even greater than before Zhang Jiao was punished, so that it finally set off the battle that shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty. Yellow Turban Uprising".
It can be said that this scepter is a token to prove his status in Taiping Dao, and it is also a tool that he must use to preach. I saw that Ma Xiang saluted with a cane, and then looked around and said: "Fellow Daoists, in the Lower Taiping Dao Ma Xiang, added as Yizhou Dafang Qu Shuai, today I have the honor to visit all the Taoist friends of Wudou Midao in Heming Mountain, and discuss the Tao with all Taoist friends, it is really an honor......
The opening remarks of Ma Xiang's self-reported home were as straightforward as the TV series of later generations, with no new ideas at all, and Fu Quan suddenly felt bored. However, this Ma Xiang's position in Taiping Dao made Fu Quan stunned, this person turned out to be a generous Qu Shuai in Taiping Dao in Yizhou, no wonder he saw that he had the same majesty as himself when he came.
In this life, although Fuquan was the first Taoist to see the Taiping Dao, after all, he knew about the Yellow Turban Uprising that shook the foundation of the Han Dynasty, so he also inquired a lot of news about the Taiping Dao. This Taiping Dao organizes believers with "square" as a unit, and each party is led by a "Qu Shuai", with more than 10,000 generous people, six or seven thousand small parties, and a total of 36 parties in the world. It is necessary to know that in the religious organization strictly managed by Taiping Dao, the status of this kind of generous Qu Shuai is definitely not low, if it is changed to the official position of the Han Dynasty, it is equivalent to the Taishou of a county, but it is not much different from his own status, judging from the fact that Ma Xiang and Zhao Yi have joined Taiping Dao for a long time, it is not surprising that they have a stronger atmosphere of superiors than themselves.
With the end of Ma Xiang's opening remarks, he finally got to the point, and only listened to him: "Lao Tzu, the great sage who has attained the Tao, and the one who is the teacher of Youming." The response changes with the party, and the success is hidden and permanent. There is no place to live, and Chang Yuan is not there. …… Circulating the six voids, educating the three realms, coming out of the world's law, being in the world's law, doing nothing and doing nothing, all of them are investigated. ”
What Guan Ma Xiang said, but it was a word that Fu Quan had never heard before, and he didn't know where it came from, so he immediately asked the little Taoist priest beside him who was listening to the sermon in the periphery at the moment. The Taoist priest thought that someone was so rude, and at this time he actually disturbed him with words to listen to the Taiping Dao Shuai's arguments, and in a blink of an eye, it was the new Bajun Taishou Fuquan who came to pray for blessings and make wishes, and quickly replied with a smile that Ma Xiang was talking about the "Taiping Qing Collar Book".
The Taiping Sutra?
Fu Quan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that since this Ma Xiang was a generous commander of Taiping Dao, he would naturally only talk about their Taiping Dao missionary classic "Taiping Qing Lingshu".
This "Taiping Qing Lingshu" is the "Taiping Sutra" of later generations, its content is mixed, involving heaven and earth, yin and yang, five elements, ten branches, disasters, immortals, etc., according to legend, the god granted Fang Shi Yu Ji, that is, the Fang Shi Yu Ji who was jealous of Sun Ce and killed.
Later, for some reason, it fell into the hands of Zhang Jiao.
Later, Zhang Jiao obtained the "Taiping Qing Collar Book" preached by the Taoist priest Yu Ji and others, and if he obtained the treasure, he used some religious concepts and social and political ideas in it in the name of "religious salvation as his own responsibility", plus the fallacies and lies in it, superstition to confuse the people, and establish the "Taiping Dao", so as to preach. Zhang Jiao believed in the "Taiping Qing Lingshu", and even named the sect he founded "Taiping Dao", also because of the "Taiping Qing Lingshu", and the so-called Taiping Dao is the righteousness before the Taiping, because of the Taiping Dao, its text, its national wealth, the destiny of heaven, the treasure of the body, even Zhang Jiao's self-proclaimed "great sage and good teacher", and even the use of nine rods and the granting of water to the believers to cure diseases during the preaching are also born from the content of the "Taiping Qing Lingshu".
Outside the hall, Ma Xiang began to elaborate on the various ideas of the Taiping Qing Lingshu, which was mixed with some of their Taiping Taoist teachings as explanations. I have to say that this "Taiping Qing Lingshu" can make Taiping Dao become the first Taoism of the Han Dynasty today, and it also has its reason, because the teachings expressed in the book are very in line with the ideological needs and life aspirations of the people at the bottom who are seriously exploited in the feudal dynasty, and it is no wonder that there are so many people who are willing to follow the Taiping Dao, so that most of these people willingly rebelled with Zhang Jiao.
The main content of the Taiping Qing Lingshu has five aspects: first, it reconstructs the theological ideological system of early Taoism, that is, the idea of "the unity of heaven and man"; The second is to take the theory of yin and yang and the five elements as the theoretical basis, outline an ideal social picture for the emperor "to peace", and put forward a set of "do nothing and do nothing" ruling technique; The third is to put forward how the cultists of the Taoist can cultivate self-cultivation techniques such as valley cultivation, food qi, nourishment, house, divination, and public opinion; Fourth, it put forward to people the concept of retribution for good and evil in the common ownership of property and self-reliance, and pointed out that only when people believe in the Tao of Correction can they cut off disasters and become immortals; Fifth, it reflects the simple people-oriented ideology of egalitarianism and the ideal of equality.
It can be said that the "to peace", "common property, self-reliance" and "egalitarianism and equality ideals" had what kind of impact on the people at the bottom of the Han Dynasty at that time, as long as the uprisings of the past dynasties had "egalitarianism and equality ideals", it is no wonder that those people at the bottom who live in poverty want to work for the rebels, not to mention that there is still a set of theoretical foundations.
Even some meat eaters also agree with the ideas mentioned in this "Taiping Qing Lingshu", so even if Zhang Jiao has a history of rebellion, most of the rulers of the Han Dynasty still ignore it, and even the emperor Liu Hong also praised this scripture, of course, for these rulers, the "egalitarianism, equality ideal" is naturally a fallacy, and it is best to delete it, so this "Taiping Qing Lingshu" in the current Han Dynasty If Zhang Jiao preaches this, otherwise it will not be collected by the government privately.
Of course, this is not to say that the "Taiping Qing Lingshu" is an evil book, which can be passed down to future generations, and even admired by countless emperors, so it naturally has a lot of merits, and Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao is just a distortion of the original meaning of the "Taiping Qing Lingshu" scripture to find a suitable theoretical basis for their rebellion.
However, Zhang Jiao's success was not only due to the "Taiping Qing Lingshu", but also due to the social background at the time. On the occasion of Jianning and Xiping, the plague "favored" the Han Empire, and the plague was everywhere in the land of Shenzhou. In the midst of the wailing of the people, a person who claimed to be a "great sage and good teacher" appeared, preaching with a "Taiping Qing Lingshu" that has become a theoretical system of its own, supplemented by the superstitious preaching method of water curing diseases, giving countless people who were mired in darkness a glimmer of "dawn", thus rapidly growing the Taiping Dao.
Therefore, at this moment, listening to Ma Xiang's exposition of the Taiping Taoist doctrine through the "Taiping Qing Lingshu", Fuquan has a sense of déjà vu of watching the news broadcast in later generations. That Ma Xiang is like the "Five Mao Party" that later received money from the Celestial Empire, constantly boasting about the beautiful world that they Taiping Dao wanted to create, but there is also a book that is said to be based on the theoretical ideas of the "Taiping Qing Lingshu" taught by the gods, which has a complete set of theological ideology of "the unity of heaven and man", which is naturally very acceptable and convincing, if it is not for Fuquan to know the future of Taiping Dao, after listening to it at this moment, there is also an impulse in my heart to live in the beautiful world described by Ma Xiang.
It's just that, obviously, what Ma Xiang said is Taiping Dao after all, and history has long told Fuquan that Taiping Dao is a force destined to end in tragedy, no matter how close his teachings are to the people, but unfortunately it is only used by distorted rebels after all.
Fu Quan listened to it again, and at first he felt that this Taiping Dao had some meaning, but later he always heard that Ma Xiang was constantly explaining the essence of the scriptures of the "Taiping Qing Lingshu", and always mentioned the ideological content of "common property, self-reliance", "egalitarianism, and equality ideals", but gradually felt much more boring.
This kind of thing is very new for the common people of the Han Dynasty who are limited by the rule of the feudal dynasty, and even makes them feel surging and look forward to fighting for it. But for Fu Quan, an excellent young man who has seen too much of this kind of theoretical knowledge from later generations, it is not very surprising, not to mention that when he went to school in later generations, the theoretical knowledge of various political ideology and moral character was constantly brainwashed by examination-oriented education, and then listening to this brainwashing of public opinion, which was not perfect at all a thousand years ago, and only had a set of ordinary rhetoric, it really didn't feel at all.
Of course, this thing is useless to Fuquan, but it is enough for the people of the Han Dynasty at this time, and for the Taoist priests and Taoist aunts of Wudou Midao who listened to the sermon at this time, even if some of them have heard the sermons of Taiping Dao many times, they are still surprised.
Just when Fu Quan felt bored, he didn't know what the horse minister said, but he heard him suddenly shout: "Overthrow the Han Dynasty to create a prosperous world!" ”
