"In opposition to Brahmanism is Jainism. The teachings of Jainism are probably ungodly, against the caste system, against killing and anti-fatalism, for everyone to attain enlightenment, for non-discrimination against women, and so on. ”

"Jainism and Brahmanism are two extremes."

"The remaining Buddhism, which has only been in existence for a few decades, was founded by Siddhartha Gautama, who they called 'Shakyamuni.'"

Lie Yukou continued to tell Qingji about the religious culture of the South Asian subcontinent.

"This Shakyamuni, whose status in the South Asian subcontinent is equivalent to my great Wu Laozi and Confucius, more than ten years ago, Shakyamuni died of illness on the bank of the Kushna Lileni Yevarti River."

"However, temples have been established throughout the subcontinent, and the number of monastic and lay believers is growing day by day, second only to Brahmanism in influence......"

Hearing this, Qingji nodded and said, "I know." Lie Yukou, it is indeed difficult for you to preach Taoist doctrine in such a place and spread the culture of the Celestial Empire of my Great Wu. ”

"No, Your Majesty, I think that if my Great Wu wants to conquer the South Asian subcontinent and conquer the world with culture, it is not impossible."

"How?"

Lie Yukou said earnestly: "Your Majesty, since you use the school to deal with the sect, you can't. Why not use sects against sects? ”

“……”

Qingji immediately understood Lie Yukou's thoughts.

Truly.

After all, the scholars of this era are only a small part, and the vast majority of people are illiterate and illiterate, and they naturally do not have much foundation if they want to spread their own doctrines based on schools.

And denominations are different.

Sects are the easiest to fool the world and deceive people.

Of course, it can't be said to be fooling or bewitching, after all, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

Atheists like Qingji cannot understand the thoughts of those who are superstitious about ghosts and gods.

However, this did not prevent Qingji from starting from this, and culturally conquered all the foreign races of the vassal kingdoms.

At this time, in order to persuade Qingji, Lie Yukou kowtowed to Qingji, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, it is easy to conquer Fanbang aliens by force. ”

"However, this can only get their people, not their hearts."

"Your Majesty, the minister's suggestion is that I, Dawu, establish a sect as the state religion, and use sects to deal with sects."

"There are many sects in Fanbang Waiyi, and Brahmanism is the state religion in the South Asian subcontinent, and the Persians before it also took Zoroastrianism as the state religion."

"Whether it is Brahmanism or Zoroastrianism, they are all tools of the emperor to control the minds of the people and unify their beliefs, and they have achieved great results."

"Your Majesty, the minister advocates that Zoroastrianism or Buddhism be designated as the state religion of my Great Wu."

"Both sects have a causality theory."

"Like Zoroastrianism, they advocate that in the struggle between good and evil, people have their own free will."

"Good is rewarded for good, evil is rewarded for evil, and the treatment after death depends on the degree of devotion and personal performance of worshipping Mazda during his lifetime."

"The teachings also divide the activities of life into three categories: thoughts, words, and actions."

"There are two kinds of good and evil in each category, and they are connected with heaven and hell, so that those who do good will be rewarded with good, and those who do evil will be rewarded with evil."

"Those who follow the good will gradually enter the kingdom of heaven, first into the heavenly heaven of good thoughts, then into the heaven of good words, then into the heaven of good deeds, and finally into the heavens of light, that is, the eternal heavens."

"The salvation of believers is not innate, but depends on their faith and the ...... of thoughts, words, and actions during their lifetime."

"The minister found that all religions have such doctrines, and it can be said that they have the same end."

Zoroastrianism?

Zoroastrianism, in fact, is Zoroastrianism, but on the side of Dawu, it is customary to call it Zoroastrianism and Zoroastrianism.

The rise of Zoroastrianism has been in existence for more than 100 years.

If Qingji is not mistaken, the founder of Zoroastrianism is Zoroaster, which seems to be a copy of Siddhartha Gautama.

Born into an aristocratic family in the Median kingdom, Zoroaster abandoned his family at the age of 20 and was inspired by God at the age of 30 to reform the traditional polytheistic religion and found Zoroasterism......

The main deity of the sect is Ahura Mazda.

They believed that Ahura Mazda was the omniscient and all-powerful creator of the universe, who possessed the virtues of light, life, and creation, and was also the embodiment of heavenly rules, order, and truth.

Mazda created the material world as well as fire, the "infinite light......

In any case, no matter how "high" the image is, the believers put on the body of the main god Mazda.

After thinking about it for a while, there was a faint glint in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Lie Yukou, whether it is Buddhism or Zoroastrianism, they are all foreign religions, and they are all the religions of the foreign races in Fanbang, not the native religion of my Great Wu." ”

"I'm a big Wu country, a heavenly kingdom, let my Wu people believe in a foreign god, isn't that a joke?"

"China has a history of thousands of years of civilization and a long history, and it is not without local gods."

"Fanbang barbarians can create gods, and my Dawu can also create gods; Fanbang barbarians have religion, and my Dawu can also have religion! ”

"I intend to establish a new sect as the state religion of my Great Wu, the only state religion."

As soon as he heard this, Lie Yukou was also very excited, and bowed to Qingji and said, "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

In fact, where would Lie Yukou want to make a foreign sect the state religion of Great Wu?

Isn't that a joke?

Da Wu also has a complete system of gods.

"Let Yin Xi and Nan Rong come over."

"No!"

……

Yin Xi and Nan Rong are representatives of the Taoist school and disciples of Lao Tzu.

These two people are not only knowledgeable and devoted themselves to cultivation, but they have also refined various elixirs for Qingji over the years.

The real elixir of life, they can't refine it, so they can only teach the "Five Fowl Opera" to Qingji and all the Wu people, so that they can prolong their lives.

Qingji, who has taken various elixirs, can also stay young forever, and his physical functions and appearance are maintained in his thirties, looking younger than Prince Heng, Wu Zhang, Wu Fan and others......

Yin Xi and Nan Rong are famous and rich, but Qingji still let one of them serve as the Qin Tianjian and the other as the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, which can be regarded as a heavy responsibility.

This time, Qingji wants to set up a new state religion, and the main person in charge is actually a Taoist person.

After Yin Xi and Nanrong entered the Zide Hall and sat down, Qingji told them what he thought.

"Establish a new sect to think that I am the state religion of Great Wu?"

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not an easy thing to do."

Hearing this, Qing Ji smiled and said, "If it was easy, I wouldn't have come to you to discuss." "a>vas>div> scan the code to download the red sleeves and Xiaoxiang to send benefits, and the newcomer will read div>div>div> for free for a limited time
