Today's natural morality has been changed three times. Hu Zhongzi wrote the "Natural Taoist Codex", and the Executive Committee immediately paid strong attention to it.

(A lot of content on the teachings of nature Taoism, provided by Gu Wusheng's novel "Confession")

Bai Baoxiang, Mao Pi, Gu Wusheng and other bigwigs have no religious concepts in their hearts at all, and they are naked pragmatists. The establishment of the natural way is a good thing, it can be used for education, charity, and the important task of winning over the people's ideological work, but all religions must be under the control of the people, and the natural way must develop and grow under the leadership of the executive committee.

After discussion, the Executive Committee decided to appoint the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Ding Yusu, as the director of the Religious Affairs Office. Religious affairs are ideologically important and must be personally handled by a member of the Executive Committee. Gu Wusheng volunteered to be in charge of religious affairs. Although Gu Wusheng is located in Shanghai, the near-modern means of communication and transportation have made Zhoushan, Shanghai, and Taiwan very closely linked.

In the wireless communication between the three places, Gu Wusheng raised the problem of the positioning of natural roads.

According to Gu Wusheng's understanding, the most critical core doctrine of religion is nothing more than to solve, how did the world come about? Why do people live? What does the future hold? These issues need to be addressed with a derived code of conduct, coupled with appropriate organizational approaches. Finally, there are some ancillary things such as rituals that increase sacredness.

If we want the Tao of Nature to become a weapon of great destruction and serve the future of the team to dominate the world, we must change the religious concept of Taoism's purity and inaction, and develop into the most extensive folk religion, instead of evolving into an upper-class Taoism and becoming the plaything of the powerful as it did in history.

Gu Wusheng's idea is consistent with the original intention of the creation of Huzhongzi, which is to make Taoism keep pace with the times and be brilliant again in modern society.

During the discussion, Ren Xuefeng, director of the Policy Research Office of the Ministry of Rites, also put forward his own ideas. Ren Xuefeng, the word is dignified. He is 28 years old, a native of Wuchang, Hubei Province, with a master's degree in international relations and a bachelor's degree in management. After the crossing, he has been in the Ministry of Rites, and several colleagues have set up a political research office, specializing in strategic deduction, and providing advice and advice for the team's military, political, diplomatic, and economic strategies.

Ren Xuefeng pondered and designed a set of contents of bloodline, Taoism, and law by himself. After the people of the world were originally Fuxi Nuwa, they should all respect Fuxi Nuwa; Lao Jun founded the religion of people and preached the world, Tao Te Ching and I Ching are the foundation of Chinese culture and the tools for communication between heaven and man; The two ancestors of Yan and Huang have holy virtues, and they are the ancestors of China.

Gu Wusheng objected to this, "Our natural way is to be promoted to the whole world, and it is to serve the future global strategy. It is hard to imagine that the people living in the Middle East are also the inheritance of Yan Huang. ”

Eventually, the "Natural Taoist Codex" was greatly revised and many new contents were added.

"There are five virtues in the Tao: 'good life', 'freedom', 'equality', 'reward', and 'purity'. In this way, it embodies the belief and social norms of kindness, freedom, equality, diligence, and temperance. As long as you believe in Taoism, you should follow these moral standards to behave. ”

"The supreme existence between heaven and earth is the Tao! The tendency of the Tao is called 'virtue'. When a person's behavior is in line with virtue, he will be encouraged by the Tao and thus accumulate merit. On the contrary, they are disgusted by the Tao and lose their merits. ”

With the financial support of the Executive Committee, Guo Ye rearranged the pattern of Taoism according to the morality described in the "Natural Taoist Codex", and the fields and forests also increased by several hundred acres.

On December 2, the renovated Longshan Temple welcomed pilgrims from all directions. Cixi Taoist Association Daoist Zheng Chen Daochang, some Taoist priests of local Taoist temples, and local gentlemen also came to cheer together.

The Yongsan Temple was built at the foot of Dapeng Mountain. Daochang Chen, fellow Daoists, and gentlemen got off the sedan chair in front of the mountain gate, and were immediately shocked by the sight.

The Longshan Temple, which was originally not prosperous with incense, is now full of people worshipping incense. People carry incense bags and enter the mountain gate in an endless stream, and more people come out of the temple and enter the square in front of the view.

In front of the Longshan Guanshan Gate was originally a piece of farmland, but now it has become a very large field, a Zhaobi is facing the Longshan Guanshan Gate, and in front of the Zhaobi is a stage.

The venue was full of people sitting on the ground. There were some futons, teapots, and the like piled up next to it. Several middle-aged aunts were guiding on the edge of the venue. After paying homage to the incense, the people entered the open space, and the ladies stepped forward to hand over the futon tea diligently

A Taoist priest-like figure was standing on the stage, beating a fishing drum and singing loudly.

“…… The five virtues of the avenue are listed in purity. Purify the heart and body, live in peace and moderation. Only by observing the virtue of purity can we live and work in peace and contentment, and this livelihood is not only worry-free, but also surpassing the past. ”

The Taoist priest sang here and went down. A few more people put on makeup, so they hurriedly went on stage, beat gongs and drums, and danced the big play.

There are many small Taoist temples around Cixi where the incense is not prosperous, and many Taoist priests in order to make a living, go around singing Xuanjuan, singing Taoism, and traveling to turn their fortunes. Longshanguan brought all these people and gave them 5 catties of rice every day, and asked them to sing the religious propaganda stories of the natural way. The Natural Way compiled many genesis stories that conformed to the morality of the Natural Path, religious stories that persuaded the good and the upward, and operas. The one who sang on stage was a troupe, and according to the script provided by Longshanguan, rehearsed the new drama "Open the World".

The Taoist Department was the official Taoist administration department of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the Cixi Taoist Department was located in the Qing Taoist Temple on the outskirts of the city. Chen Daochang is the Taoist of the Taoist Division and the host of the Qing Taoist Temple. Although he has entered the world quite deeply, he still yearns in his heart to be able to escape from the world, cut off vulgar feelings, and prove the road early. Longshanguan is so kind of that he is very disapproving.

Seeing Guo Ye smiling and singing out, Chen Dao bowed his head, "My Taoist has always paid attention to quiet and inaction, and the poor road is an eye-opener today, I didn't expect the Longshan Temple of incense to be so vigorous, and the mountain gate is so lively!" ”

Guo Ye had already led people to worship the mountain gate of the Qing Taoist Temple, and also left a "Natural Taoist Codex" to Chen Daochang. Chen Daochang has also read it a few times, the style of "Natural Taoist Classics" is not like Taoist classics at all, the content is quite straightforward, and there is not even a sentence of dragon and tiger intersection, female babies and other terms throughout the whole text, it sounds good, the doctrine is plain and easy to understand, and if it is not good, it is simple and shallow. However, in troubled times, it is not easy to survive, since the natural way is not evil, and there are many gentlemen who say that Chen Dao has a large number of people, he will never be embarrassed.

Guo Yeji returned the salute, "Humanity is the way of heaven, and I naturally enter the world to walk, preach and save people, and preach the Tao with meritorious deeds." ”

Although the Longshan Temple is not large, the scale of Taoism is also quite neat. The whole view is progressing forward and backward on the central axis, the first entrance is the main hall, which is dedicated to the statue of the Taoist ancestor Taishang Laojun, and Zhang Ge and the two heavenly masters serve on both sides.

Under the guidance of Zhike Daotong, pilgrims from all over the world entered the hall in an endless stream, and they rejoiced with incense.

Guo Ye accompanied Daoist Chen of the Taoist Division, as well as a group of gentry into the Da Luo Treasure Palace. Seeing that the main hall is dedicated to the Taoist ancestor, Chen Daochang's face sank like water, "The hidden void is long, and the Longshan view is converted to the natural way, which can be described as unique." ”

The Taoist Da Luo Bao Hall is usually the Sanqing Palace, the Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun statue is in the center of the main hall, the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun statue is on the left in the main hall, and the Taiqing Daode Tianzun statue is on the right in the main hall.

"The Tao is natural." Guo Ye knew that there was such a controversy, and he had already made full preparations, "The statue of the Three Qing Gods enshrined in the Taoist temple in the world is just a Heavenly Venerable who has been transformed into a catastrophe. ”

Chen Dao has been cultivating for many years, and his heart is good, he smiled, "So, what is enshrined in the natural Dao is the real avenue?!" ”

"All of us are cultivators, but what is the Great Dao?" Guo Ye held the dust whisk in his hand and said loudly, "The Great Dao is the truth and the law of the universe. The Great Dao is the original state of the universe when the heavens and the earth are not opened and the void is not divided, and it is the supreme existence of the universe. 'The Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. 'The avenue is invisible, giving birth to the world; The avenue is ruthless, running the sun and the moon; The avenue is nameless, and all things are nourished for a long time.

The natural way believes that the avenue is simple. Yuan Shi Tianzun, Daode Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, and the three Qings are all the embodiment of the Tao, the ancestor of vitality, and the foundation of heaven and earth. Shangqing, Yuqing, and Taiqing are the Tianzun that should be transformed in the past dynasties. It is said that it is the continuation of the Tao, the evolution of the Tao, and the formation of the Tao, and that the Tao is omnipresent and inclusive of all things. ”

Guo Yekou was like a river, his words were chiseled, and he looked like a fairy wind and bones, and the gentry couldn't help but nod their heads again and again, "It's extreme, it's extreme!" ”

Chen Daochang's mouth was plugged for a while, he thought, forget it, this natural Dao is the same as the White Lotus Sect, it is an outlier that cannot be provoked.

Guo Ye dusted off the dust and looked around at the people around him, "Come on, come on, all the Taoist friends, all the gentry, the murals on this hall depict all the contents of the creation volume of the "Natural Taoist Canon". ”

The walls of the main hall are covered with tile murals made in modern Jingdezhen, depicting images of the Big Bang and the origin of mankind in the eyes of nature.

In the chaotic time, the Dao Ancestor turned into the Yuan Shi Tianzun to open the world. During the flood and famine, the Taoist ancestor divided yin and yang, turned into Fuxi and Nuwa, and Fuxi played gossip and became the ancestor of humanity; Nuwa made clay figures and was the ancestor of the flesh. The way of heaven is humanity, and the way of enlightenment is to respect the sky, respect the sky and love people, and it is the unity of heaven and man.

Chi You was originally transformed by the Dao Ancestor Heart Ape, slipped out of the heavenly court, came to the Nether, caused chaos in China, and confused the common people. Dao Ancestor's eyes released two divine thoughts, turning into the Yellow Emperor of Yan. Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor came to the world, legislated and established a state, exterminated Chiyou, and opened the foundation of 5,000 years of civilization in China.

While guiding everyone, Guo Ye explained the morality of the natural Tao, "The supreme existence between heaven and earth is the Tao, the Tao is the truth, and the Tao is the law of the operation of the universe."

The two ancestors of Yan and Huang are enlightened and become the ancestors of China, so the Chinese Miao descendants can be so prosperous, and all the descendants of Yan and Huang in the world will be blessed by the two ancestors of Yan and Huang. ”

The "groundbreaking" of the natural way only wraps the scientific cosmology with a cloak of mysticism. Qianxuzi told about spitting lotus flowers in his mouth, and fooled everyone into a fascination.

However, Guo Ye only preached the creation, classics, morality, cultivation, precepts and other teachings of the natural way, and never mentioned the magical power of the natural way, nor did he talk about the secret method of cultivating immortals, charms, and even the art in the room.

Guo Ye knew that he could not treat this kind of Taoist gentleman who came to pay his respects, just like he did with ordinary people, and he could persuade them to change their beliefs by relying on a little display of "mana". Therefore, when he preached to Chen Daochang and others, he never deliberately, but discussed them as if he were talking about academics, and had an attitude of discussion in response to the questions raised by the other party.
