Written in front of the words
Before I start this book, let me explain my profession. I am a Taoist priest and a corporate consultant for a well-known company. Some people may ask, as a Taoist priest, why are you still a consultant for other people's enterprises?
It's not because it's too difficult for the Taoist profession to survive these days!
Yes, I am a Taoist priest, to be precise, a Taoist priest living at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
Seriously, the reputation of the Taoist profession is really not very good, compared to Buddhism and Christianity, Taoist priests can be scolded a lot. Although it is better now than in the fifties and sixties, there are still many people who have some misunderstandings and resistance to Taoist priests.
Alas, it's all tears, in fact, sometimes I'm also helpless, the things inherited from my ancestors, people who really know how to do it are put in their stomachs, where will they take a horn to advertise everywhere? And the real Taoist family, because of many rules and constraints, are hidden by the side of the common people, and the real identity will not be known to you, unless fate comes.
Some of your friends may start to scoff at it: Look, this thing is fooling people again! If you open your mouth and close your mouth, I think you are a god!
Hey, I still like to hear people call me a god, but it's kinder than people calling me Taoist. You know, Taoism pays attention to nature, and this nature can include fate, such as who you know, who you befriend, who you marry, etc., this is all due to fate. Let's talk about accepting apprentices, in addition to looking at talents, accepting apprentices will have to collide. Your talent is up to the sky, and if you don't have a master-apprentice relationship, people won't accept you. Accept it, that is, a strong twisted melon, although it is not against the sky, but after all, it is not going with the flow.
But where do people know this now? Because of the development of the Internet, many Taoist people are aware of the problem of poor reputation, and then begin to use the rapid spread of the Internet to justify the name of Taoism. This kind of propaganda on the Internet has attracted many young people to seek advice and apprenticeship, which is actually a good thing, injecting fresh blood into Taoism, and allowing modern young people to inherit Taoist culture. But what I never expected was that this also gave some real gods a chance to improve themselves, and many self-proclaimed "Taoist chiefs" of such and such a sect and such and such a mountain began to shoot videos to show some "spells", and then collected a large number of disciples on the Internet, the purpose of which can be said to be obvious.
Speaking of which, I can only sigh, I said, the road is long!
So with this in mind, I decided to write a book to tell everyone about my experience and show everyone the world of real Taoist priests. Of course, I won't write out the specific techniques, first, I am afraid that some friends who love Taoism will draw scoops according to the pot, but there will be problems; The second is that all the key things in the magic are taught by the teacher or the family heirloom, which cannot be expressed in words. Because it involves some things that cannot be known to the public, I will do some processing, and I hope you will not sit in the right seat.
