Chapter 388: Scientology 3 Fifth Update!
In the palace city of Mingdu Mansion, a good meal is the time for the guests and hosts to enjoy themselves.
These days are the Spring Festival, Chen Dexing has to have dinner with his subordinates almost every day, and he is tired of eating all kinds of delicacies from Liaodong and Goryeo. Today's vegetarian meal, rice porridge is slightly yellow, tofu is tender and white, kimchi is fresh and tender, candied fragrant fields, plus various fungus and mushrooms from Liaodong specialties, and Guo Fuer and Yang Po'er personally cook and manipulate it, which naturally makes Chen Dexing have a great appetite.
The reason why he opened a vegetarian fast today is not because Chen Dexing needs to lose weight, his figure is still very good, as a martial artist, he has not abandoned his martial arts, and he exercises enough every day. The reason for the vegetarian fast is that there is a monk among today's visitors, that is, the friend of Chen Huaiqing, the great monk of the Nine Lamps who visited with Wen Tianxiang.
The Nine Lamps Monk is not a Tibetan secret lama, nor is he a monk of wine and meat in Honganji, but a generation of senior monks who are serious about the Eight Classics. Tall and thin, with unfathomable words, he doesn't care about the Buddhist rules of eating and not saying anything when he eats, and he keeps talking and laughing. is on the same page with Wen Tianxiang, talking about allusions to Confucianism and Buddhism. Chen Dexing only laughed, where did he not know where the two of them came from? Ever since Chen Dexing began to engage in feudal superstition, Chen Huaiqing has been persuading him in his letters -- in Chen Huaiqing's view, what Chen Dexing needs to do most now is to win the support of Confucian scholars, at least not to let Confucian scholars in the world regard Chen Dexing as a heretic.
Chen Dexing now has the conditions for the founding of the country, and at this time it is time to take the right path, and he should no longer engage in cults and follow the wrong path!
After all, most of the people, wealth and public opinion in the world are in the hands of Confucian scholars. If all the Confucian scholars in the world oppose Chen Dexing, then it will not be easy for him to establish a country in Liaodong and Goryeo, and he wants to enter the Central Plains or even dominate the world. It's a pipe dream!
And the Tiandao Sect that Chen Dexing raised was a sect that could be disgusted by most Confucian students in the world - historically. Confucianism and other sects are not very harmonious, because Confucianism is not a pure school. Rather, it is a quasi-religion, except that there are no immortals, but they are replaced by gods and ancestors. There are a lot of Confucian scriptures, but fundamentally speaking, it is the reverence for God and the worship of ancestors. This leads to the yearning for ancient politics and thought, as well as the extreme respect for filial piety and the strong clan concept.
However, Tiandaoism advocates a scientific outlook on development -- that is, people can study and master the knowledge and truth of the universe through guò, and are infinitely close to God, and can use these knowledge and truths to build an ideal kingdom that is extremely rich in material and can be distributed according to people's needs......
Other words. With the mastery of science, the present and the future will be far superior to the ancient! This is diametrically opposed to the Confucian idea of reverence for the ancients. At the same time, Tiandaoism focused its "learning" on the field of natural sciences rather than ancient scriptures. He also made the study of natural science and the discovery of the "way of heaven" to the height. This is tantamount to putting natural science above the Confucian scriptures, and natural science is where the avenue lies!
This set of truth is really more hated than Chen Dexing's pretending to be a ghost! Not only Confucianism can't agree, but even monks and Taoist priests have to fight Chen Daxian to the end. This time offended the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, Chen Daxian's Heavenly Taoism is really a sect that can attract hatred.
Chen Dexing kept a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, listening to Wen Tianxiang and the Nine Lights Monk criticizing the Heavenly Taoism there. The rejection of the Heavenly Dao Church by the mainstream ideology of the Central Plains was expected by Chen Dexing. But as he told Mo Yingniang, Tiandaoism was the key to building a new country in the future - Tiandaoism was an important tool for introducing scientific methods and positivism to China, and at the same time establishing a modern education system in China!
If there is no Heavenly Taoism, the idea of science is spread in the name of God. Chen Dexing has no other way to shake the science of science, which has formed a perfect philosophical system -- unless he burns books and pits Confucianism and kills people on a large scale! But even with the killing spree, Chen Dexing still needed a new philosophical system of thought to acquire Confucianism. Otherwise, it won't be long before Buddhism and Taoism, which are more negative than Confucianism, will take advantage of the void. Occupy the minds of the Chinese!
And under the rule of the Southern Song Dynasty, even he passed on all the scientific knowledge he knew to the Chinese in the 13th century. It is unlikely that this knowledge will become the cornerstone of China's scientific rise, and it will most likely seem to be gradually annihilated by Chen Dexing, and if it is not lost, it will not continue to make much progress. Because no matter what great scientific inventions Chen Dexing came up with, in the eyes of a group of big Confucians, they were just small ways, they were just strange tricks and tricks, and they couldn't be compared with moral articles at all.
Therefore, the only way is to use the knowledge of God to oppose the knowledge of Confucius and Mencius under the pretense of oracles, and to foster a "Scientology", so as to implant scientific methods and pragmatism in the Chinese philosophical ideological system.
That is, to spread science and truth with religion! Use scientific superstition to fight Confucian superstition......
And to establish the Scientology Cult, Chen Daxian certainly can't admit that he is pretending to be a god.
Thinking of this, Chen Dexing no longer circled with Wen Tianxiang and Monk Jiudeng. He tapped the wine glass lightly on the table, and then lowered his voice: "Wenshan, master, what you have said for a long time is nothing more than that Chen is pretending to be a god and playing ghosts, and the Heavenly Taoism is a heretical cult that cannot be tolerated in China. However, Chen does have a destiny, and the knowledge that Chen knows is indeed not used in this world. Chen's cannon, black H medicine, telescope, and heavenly sphere were not created by Chen, but Chen introduced the knowledge of heaven to the mortal world. And Chen also knows more about the knowledge of the Heavenly Court, which can be verified, not pretended! ”
That is to say, Chen Dexing's great immortal is real, because his knowledge is true! Since his great immortal is true, then what kind of scientific method and what kind of pragmatism of the Heavenly Daoist Sect is not a cult doctrine, but a real great truth!
Wen Tianxiang resolutely didn't believe it, so he looked at Chen Dexing angrily and said coldly: "Brother Qingzhi still has any great knowledge, please say it, and it will also open Wen's eyes." ”
Monk Jiudeng just smiled and shook his head, and did not publicly refute Chen Dexing's words. Buddhists believe in reincarnation, and Buddhists also believe in the theory of "three thousand worlds", believing that the world of Bosha (probably the earth) is only one of the three thousand worlds, and that Chen Dexing's soul comes from other worlds, and it is possible that he has not completely forgotten the knowledge of his previous life......
Chen Dexing also looked at Wen Tianxiang angrily, he also knew that Wen Tianxiang's great Confucianism was not so easy to convince - he was different from Zhao Fu, Zhao Fu had experienced ups and downs, his clan was ruined, and he had been living in the north for many years, so he had no attachment to the Confucian principles for a long time, and it was easier to accept new things.
And Wen Tianxiang is a great Confucian of the Southern Dynasty who was born in the champion! Although his current reputation is a bit stinky and he is regarded as a traitor, the persistence and arrogance of Confucianism are still there.
Chen Dexing also let go of his tone: "There are naturally many truths, but it is inconvenient to say them now." Because I have already planned to hold a Heavenly Dao dialectic at the right time, and I want to sit and discuss the Tao with the great masters of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism! When the time comes, Chen will naturally come up with new knowledge! ”
Wen Tianxiang looked at Chen Dexing in surprise, as if he was looking at a monster. If Chen Dexing goes to wrestle with the great masters of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, he may be able to win. Compare the Tao ...... Isn't that self-defeating? Those who are virtuous and high-ranking people can not speak the Tao, and those who are dead can say that they are alive, what knowledge can Chen Dexing say to them?
The monk of the Nine Lights touched his bald head and laughed: "This feeling is good, hold a dialectical conference, and invite the three masters of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism to sit and discuss the Tao together, the truth in this world is always clearer and clearer." Our Lingyin Temple will definitely send someone to participate in the dialectic! But the poor monk wanted to gamble. ”
Chen Dexing nodded with a smile and asked rhetorically, "Master Nine Lights doesn't want to open the Lingyin Lower Courtyard in Liaodong, right?" ”
The monk of the Nine Lights folded his hands and said with a smile: "The king is really a god, and the little monk wants to open a Lingyin Lower Courtyard in Liaodong to promote Buddhism." ”
"Of course not!" Chen Dexing shook his head and refused very simply, "There are no Buddhist temples and nunnery in Liaodong!" Unless monks and nuns get married and eat meat, and pay taxes like ordinary people, there will not be a temple in Liaodong! ”
The monk's face suddenly became ugly. How can a monk nun get married and eat meat? Do you want the great monk to marry a little nun and give birth to a little novice? What has come of this? Chen Dexing: This is difficult to revitalize in Liaodong!
Chen Dexing smiled and said in a deep tone: "Chen has the mandate of heaven, turning the tide, and saving Huaxia is only one of them. Because the difficulty of this China is not how strong Hu Lu is, but the sinking of my China, and now China no longer has the atmosphere of the Han and Tang Dynasties. Today's Huaxia only knows the old ways, without the spirit of pioneering and upward, and there is no hope! Chen wants to reshape the spirit of China, revitalize the spirit of China, so that it can open up the four seas and lead the world! ”
In fact, Chen Dexing now really believes that he has the mandate of heaven - all for the goddess Mo Yingniang - so his ambition is getting bigger and bigger, not only to get the Mongols away from the Central Plains, but also to fantasize about making China the world.
Wen Tianxiang and the Great Monk of the Nine Lights looked at each other, and they were quite helpless about Chen Dexing's obsession.
The monk of the Nine Lights folded his hands, chanted a Buddha name, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, I don't know where you want to hold a dialectical conference?" ”
Chen Dexing thought for a while, and said loudly: "Let's be in Putuo Mountain!" In April and May this year, a certain family held a heavenly dialectical conference in Putuo Mountain off the coast of Mingzhou. (To be continued......)
