Chapter 124: Culture and Beliefs

It is difficult to have a specific definition of civilization, such as Confucianism in the previous life of the Fifth Xuan.

You say it's useless learning, for nearly 2,000 years, the great ancient China, which has been at the forefront of the world and even at the peak many times, was created by it.

For a long time, those countries that came to be called the Great Powers could not catch up quickly.

People's livelihood, agriculture, politics, and economy, under the shroud of Confucian culture, are comprehensively ahead of their time.

But if Confucianism is useful, at the end of the period, it can allow the enemy to win more with less and occupy the whole country, and in modern times, it has been comprehensively surpassed by the great powers and beaten at will.

If it weren't for the time when the country was destroyed and the species was wiped out, countless heroes came out one after another, and in the end, the strongmen leveled the world and washed China, what would happen in the end, it's really hard to say.

For a period of time, Confucianism was criticized, and the second child of the Confucian family was almost hanged and beaten, and he almost became a pillar of shame.

But before the Fifth Xuan crossed, it was just in time for the Great China to set sail, although it did not charge to the world status at the peak of ancient China.

But the right to speak and strength are indeed much better than the previous weakness, and it can be expected that this situation will continue to be better.

Why?

Fifth Xuan feels that this matter still needs to dig deep into the culture and Confucianism in the culture.

Removing the cognitive bias caused by the change of time, is Confucianism really so "dirty"?

Fifth Xuan doesn't think so.

Each era has its own different demands, we have broken feudalism, and it is of course not good to look back at feudalism.

But in feudalism, is there no light?

If there is, this brightness should be Confucianism.

On the other hand, how much Confucian culture was influenced by the departure of Great China?

Confucian culture, one of the iconic cultures is the family world.

Up to the officials and nobles, down to the peddlers and pawns, you must have a heart to serve the country, no, it is disloyal, no, your parents can say that you are not filial.

Fifth Xuan believes that it is this spirit that makes everyone in New China willing to pay for this country, which has created the rapid rise of this country.

Although there were various problems before the fifth mystery, such as lack of innovation, such as lack of copyright awareness, etc., many times, this is an exaggeration.

When the United States imperialism was developing, it was not a pirate of British literature, and Britain did not rebuke the United States for this, and the United States was not a scoundrel and did not care about it.

Over and over again, it is still the same truth, the times change, the demands are different, the needs and practices will naturally have deviations, as long as the spiritual head is still there, there is the will of the iron head baby, after all, it will walk out of a road of its own.

Therefore, when the Fifth Xuan first established the culture of the Fire Tribe, it was the first to start private ownership, followed by the culture of filial piety.

And it is the filial piety culture of ancient China, not the kind of great powers.

People, only with concern and fetters, can they grit their teeth and work, otherwise they will all take care of their own and be free and easy, what about their family and country?

In addition to the culture of loyalty and filial piety, as a totem, the fifth mystery has to pay attention to the culture of faith.

The ancient Chinese belief culture is mainly Taoism and Confucianism, and to be honest, the fifth Xuan feels that these two are not doing well.

When the former arrived in New China, it was almost cut off, or rather, completely integrated into the culture, without independence.

And the latter, Fifth Xuan is not very fond of it.

Before He crossed, there was a sentence that was exaggerated, but also very interesting:

In the prosperous world, Buddhism is Chang, and Taoism is hidden alone in the deep mountains;

The Bodhisattva in troubled times doesn't ask about things, and Lao Jun carries a sword to save the vicissitudes of life.

This is certainly not entirely true, but judging from the world events that the Fifth Xuan experienced in his previous life, there is some truth to it.

When he traveled by himself, he also saw Bodhi more and rarely saw Taoist, of course, he didn't know about troubled times.

It may be that Buddhism is a very good philosophical thought, but if it is regarded as a kind of faith, the fifth meta itself cannot do it.

If he can't do it himself, he naturally can't promote this kind of thinking to his clansmen, so in the alliance he established, there is not much Buddhist culture.

He never mentions the ability to suffer and atone for sins, to seek an afterlife, and to abstain from lust.

He asked his people to endure hardships and sins, but they had to have some plans, otherwise they would be working in vain, and they would be discrediting the justice and morality of the world.

Seeking the next life has never been proposed, this life is not good, and the next life can be good?

Co-authoring life has really become "a game, a dream"? If you don't play well, you can save it in advance, and then reopen it at any time?

Quit lust and abstinence, the fifth Xuan is even more opposed, what the alliance lacks now is people, let's talk about this thing when the population is overflowing.

But he didn't want his people to be lustful, so he still used the Confucian doctrine of self-denial.

It's good not to abstain, but to refrain from it, to have some moderation.

Excluding Buddhism, the Fifth Xuan considered using the Western sect, and even named the current temple a church for a time.

The advantage of Western denominations is that they are easy to spread, and they are relatively organized, that is, they have clear rules.

What is good and what is evil, what can be done and what cannot be done, can be said clearly in general.

After thinking about it, the fifth mystery is still not promoted, one is that after raising the belief too high, it is easy to breed all kinds of problems.

After all, no matter how clear the canon is, it is not the same as the law, and once its influence is greater than the law, the darkness in the shadows is too much for people to look at directly.

Moreover, under the hint and impetus of the Fifth Mystery over the years, Taichu's faith has long been stable enough, and there is no need for him to make unnecessary implementations.

In this way, it is better to determine the culture of the alliance with Confucian culture as the main body, supplemented by Taoism to determine the output of faith, so as to form an alliance.

The advantage of Taoism is that it is far away from politics, and the more moral Taoists are, the farther away from politics, and even from the clansmen.

They only focus on their beliefs, and that is enough, and excessive propagation or proximity to power is a disservice to the rights of the upper echelons of the Alliance.

Previously, except for the period of preparation for becoming a god, the Fifth Xuan had all his strength to integrate the faith, and since then, the Fifth Xuan has been free to develop in the temple.

But this time, the reincarnation system was established, and the land god was ready to be promoted, and the meaning was completely different.

This is a thoroughly perfected system that sends faith into the towns through the land gods.

Faith at the grassroots level, this is completely different, and the impact of faith on many totems in the alliance will be very strong.

The fifth mystery is naturally invincible, no matter where the temple is, the first one to worship must be him.

Even if this temple is called the Land Temple, on the throne of the Lord, there is also a statue of Him, which no one can change.

But except for him, the status of the other totems is about to be lost.

"This matter, when you do it, you can't do it too wantonly, and you can do it quietly, starting from the villages and towns. ”

The idea of the fifth mystery is nothing more than that the countryside surrounds the city, and when the high-level totems react, the matter is done, and they can only admit it.

The ancestors nodded, wrote down the matter, and began to discuss it again, while the fifth Xuan went to the underworld to put forward some ideas.

In general, it is nothing more than judges, eighteen layers of hell and so on, just orders, and the big boss will naturally arrange it.

Even if his administrative ability is average, he is assisted by six generations of leaders, six generations of leaders, but a generation of outstanding people.
