Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, Lao Tzu, Shankara, Shakyamuni, and so on, all the spiritual teachers throughout history had the original intention of "to know thyself", and did not ask people to ask for anything, let alone the names and labels of their respective religions that those superstitious people are obsessed with today. Belief and being controlled are two different concepts!

People often ask me if I believe in Taoism, and I don't know how to answer, so I have to say that I have learned a little Taoism. True practice requires liberation not only from negative limiting beliefs, but also from all beliefs about the Tao, religion, truth, etc., because faith comes with opposition and fear.

How to understand it? For example, there are many gods and ghosts in Taoism, and these gods and ghosts are either described as saviors or depicted as harmful spirits, and people are afraid of death, and they are afraid that after death, there will be a soul messenger to pull them to hell, which is fear. Because of fear, I go to worship, and I bow three times and bow to those gods whose names I don't know, trying to get spiritual forgiveness and blessings, and this is the most powerful part of the spiritual realm.

Some Pure Land masters even say that there is no Zen root apparatus in the end of the Dharma era, and I would like to say that no one can judge the root apparatus of the other. There is nothing else to do outside of my heart. Cultivation is to follow one's own heart more, the Fa is just a tool to guide your mind to a certain avenue, not a wall that encloses people, and having the Tao in your heart is the Tao everywhere, and if there is no Tao in your heart just because of fear, that is pure self-deception. If you can't free yourself, you will go around and around in that "way" all your life, and faith is to adhere to your own way, the correct way, and not to worship myths!

Cha Wenbin said to Feng Qiyun: "Actually, it shouldn't be me who is afraid, but them, I am just being myself, and I have nothing to do with the so-called identity." Whether or not I am the successor of Zhou, or the next person who may rise in the spiritual realm, my heart has always been in the three small houses in Wulipu, and that is my world. The real ambition is them, they are afraid that anyone has a threat to this status, history, too many theocratic rise to defeat the empire of monarchy, although the Vatican is as small as a sesame seed, but who can despise every word that comes out of that acre and three points, but the reason why the Pope of Rome is a pope is not because he holds billions of believers in his hands, but because he is a respectable wise man, nothing more. ”

This is Cha Wenbin, whom Feng Qiyun saw again after a period of time, and now Cha Wenbin can say such words in his mouth, which is enough to shock her, this is a fog that many religious believers can't see clearly in their lives. There is a way, do not know the true face of Lushan, only because of being in this mountain, the most mysterious place in the spiritual world is infinite travel, there is no limitation of time and space, anyone once they enter will be deeply trapped in it and can not extricate themselves, but some people can be alone, he has faith in his heart but is by no means the so-called gods and ghosts, but an obsession with faith. The difference between superstition and religion is that one regards it as a law of practice, while the other uses it as a token that can control one's fate.

Now the answer has gradually surfaced, and in the eyes of Luo Meng, Cha Wenbin is equivalent to Jiang Ziya back then. Because Jiang Ziya can be a god, he created a myth that belongs to that era, especially the Taoist immortal system, which laid the integrity of the Taoist immortal system. And after three thousand years of Jiang Ziya's language, someone can complete one thing that he didn't accomplish back then, that is, he was not successfully sealed when he was a god, then this person is to replace Jiang Ziya to complete something that he did not complete, and this person is equivalent to having the ability to become a god.

Fengshen is just a story, and the mystery of this story is that Jiang Ziya created a set of mythological systems, which opened up the status of totems in the spiritual field of Taoism, and those Han gods who were ranked in the immortal class were shaped by him one after another. Any religion that wants to gain the support of faith is inseparable from the existence of God, without God, where do you put the concern in the hearts of believers?

It is no exaggeration to say that mythology comes with religion, from the earliest shamanic witchcraft there is an image of God, and the earlier Bon religion originated from 8,000 years ago with the specific depiction of various gods, and there is a religion with a god, and whoever created a god means that he has a pivotal position in this faith, and even can mythologize himself. Mythology is the personification of people's ability to transcend themselves in the spiritual realm, a totem that is artificially endowed with superpowers and rights!

The end of mythology is accompanied by the development of religion, and in the past few hundred years, no new religion has been able to develop systematically and genres, and in the same way, no new myths have been born.

The atmosphere in the tent was somewhat oppressive, and the gravity of the situation was successively applied in this round of conversation. Feng Qiyun said that history is developing, and the birth of new myths will not be erased because of time and cognition, just as the development of the spiritual realm cannot be obtained, and many branches have appeared, but these branches have not escaped their original system.

Cha Wenbin believes that the system of the Tao cannot be escaped, because everything is the embodiment of the Tao, and the Tao is not a myth but an objective existence, so the biggest problem of the Romans is that they are not firm believers but a ruler who tries to exist forever, and the ruler is to destroy any existence that will shake the foundation of their rule!

"I don't want to bother you brothers," Cha Wenbin bowed his head and said: "They are coming for me, you have more or less some entanglements with me, just like those Dharma protectors in mythology, but I can tell them that there is no need for such uprooting, I Cha Wenbin can bear it alone." ”

"Cha Ye, you are guilty of personal heroism again." The fat man said: "I'm going to criticize you, this is called left-leaning adventurism, any individual strength can't compete with the collective, we are born to be a brother on the battlefield." You're right, buddy, I'm the protector of the Dharma, whoever dares to take you under the knife, I'll take whoever sacrifices the flag, we've all reached the moment of this final showdown, whoever walks out of this tent today, don't blame Lao Tzu for sacrificing him to the gods first. ”

"You can bear it!" Feng Qiyun smiled: "Are there any outsiders here?" Are you going to take me or Qiu'er, bragging and not picking a suitable target, do you think we are like Pu Zhigao of the mutinous organization? ”

"I don't know if you are Pu Zhigao, I must be Sister Jiang, I won't give in if I am killed, Cha Ye, don't worry, no matter how awesome this scum hole is, it is just a paper tiger, you have to believe that we are all proletarian fighters who have been tested for a long time, and no cow, ghost, snake or god can resist the rolling torrent of people's justice."

"Boom", the fat man was holding the bowl of hot soup in his hand to give an enthusiastic speech, and suddenly this loud bang blew the ground under his feet at that moment, and countless gravel fell from the sky like raindrops, making the tent shake in an instant. A few people didn't have time to react at all, the fat man's hot soup rolled down to the instep, and Cha Wenbin almost fell into the fire in front of him. The shaking lasted for about half a minute, and the sound of whistling water was accompanied by the rolling down of boulders, and in a moment the entire embankment of hundreds of meters of the Merlin Reservoir was completely destroyed, and the lake was suddenly mixed with boulders and rushed down the mountain with huge waves......

After calming down for a while, the fat man was the first to rush out, and from afar he saw that a huge gap of twenty or thirty meters had been blown open at the embankment, and the rest of the embankment had also collapsed rapidly under the impact of the current. After all, the man-made project was destroyed under the power of man, and the water level began to drop rapidly. ”

"We've done measurements." Daoist Jia came out of the forest behind him and said: "There are dozens of miles of people in this ravine, and now the water level of the Tiaoxi River can still accommodate it, and the worst result is to wash away some residential houses by the river, and the personnel have been arranged to be transferred, and their property losses will be compensated." ”

"You still have some conscience," said the fat man, "when are you going to do it?" This reservoir is full of silt, and the seepage water can not be drained in a few days, Lao Tzu's clothes are imported from Italy, and you can't afford to pay for it after you go down. ”

"It's expected that tomorrow night," said Jia Daoshi, "there will be a few more small-scale explosions, and I will ask someone to repair your tent later, and you will wait patiently, and you will set off as soon as the time comes." ”

"Anyone else?" The fat man pointed to himself and said, "Don't you say just a few of us?" ”

"Yes, a few of you who went in back then will accompany you, not the more people the better, I believe that your ability is enough to deal with it."

"I don't want this high hat," the fat man said with a sly smile: "You always have something to do, I want to do it, I heard that dozens of people were inexplicably put in it." ”

"There will be everything that should be," Jia Daoshi said: "Don't disturb the rest of you, someone will bring food when the time comes, don't walk around in the wind and rain outside, this place is not very peaceful, and it is haunted at night." ”

"By the way, Brother Wen Bin, what was this place doing before?" Feng Qiyun said: "This place is not too far away from Hong Village, could it be that the age is earlier than Hong Village?" ”

"I heard that there used to be a village here, but according to an insider I visited last time, there were many martyrs at the bottom of the lake. The funeral system is a sign of a slave society, and it is also an important criterion to distinguish it from the feudal system, so I think it should be inhabited before the pre-Qin period, so the time is somewhat close to the Shang and Zhou periods, it seems that Luomen's concerns are not completely unreasonable, at least they are very likely to be products of the same era. ”
