Chapter 51: Identity
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Du Guangting wrote "Taishang Laojun Says Changqing Jingjing Sutra Commentary", the scripture records that the immortal Ge Xuan said: "I have the truth, and I have recited this scripture ten thousand times." This scripture is practiced by celestial beings and is not passed on to the corporal. I used to be the emperor of Donghua. The Emperor of Donghua was subject to the Emperor of Jinque, and the Emperor of Jinque was subject to the Queen Mother of the West. The Queen Mother of the West is passed down by word of mouth and does not remember words. I have recorded it in the world. ”
Du Guangting said: "Donghua, according to the Shangqing Jingyun, there is a floating cloud world in the east, the country of Bixia, the Canglong Palace in the city of Cuiyu, in which the palace is a combination of dragon and phoenix pearls, and there are five-colored clouds covering it, so it is called Canglong Palace." It is the place where the children of Tung Wah live. ”
Du Guangting believes that Emperor Donghua is the child of Donghua......
According to the Donghua Xiaotong, that is, the Donghai Xiaotong, in the Taoist Shangqing Sutra, often called Shangxiang Qingtongjun, Donghai Qingtongjun, also known as Donghua Qingtong, Donghua Great God Fang Zhuqingtongjun, is the Taoist Shangqing faction respected by the great god of the scriptures. The transmission process of the Queen Mother of the West, the Emperor of Jinque, and the Prime Minister Qingtongjun has been repeatedly recorded in the Shangqing Sutra.
Ge Hong's "Hug Puzi Inner Chapter • Dengshi" has already contained the "East China Sea Children's Talisman".
In the process of the evolution of the Taoist god system, because the East China Sea Qingtong Jun is the East Princes (Mu Gong), and the Donghua Emperor is the East China Sea Qingtong Jun, so the three names of the Donghua Emperor, the East China Sea Qingtong Jun, and the East Princes finally merged into one, pointing to the same god.
Written in the Yuan Dynasty and compiled by the Ming people, the first volume of the "Three Religions Sou Shen Daquan" "The Biography of the Emperor of Donghua" clearly states that "Emperor Donghua" or "Dongwanggong", or "Qingtong Jun, or Fang Zhujun, or Qingtijun, although the name is different, that is, a Donghua also." ”
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness East Classic" records that he lived in a stone room in the mountains on the coast of the East China Sea. Dongfang Shuo wrote "The Chronicle of the Ten Continents": "Fusang is on the east coast of the East China Sea...... In the blue sea, hundreds of miles away, there is the Great Emperor's Palace, which is governed by the prince of Taizhen East. There are many forests and trees, and the leaves are like mulberries. ”
"Daozang", "Chuan Northern Song Dynasty Wu Zongyuan (Chaoyuan Immortal Battle Map) Main God Combination Interpretation" and Quanzhen Sect internal documents record that he was a person from Wendeng County, Ninghai Prefecture, Shandong Province (now Wendeng City, Shandong Province). The former residence is located in the Yanxia Cave of Kunlun Mountain.
Emperor Donghua was born on the blue sea and created all things when he was born in the world. In the East, he is in charge of the qi of yin and yang. It is the ancestor of the mainstream of Taoism in the world, the head of the "Five Ancestors of the North", according to the five ancestors of Quanzhen, with Emperor Donghua as the ancestor, and the continuation of Zhong Liquan, Lu Chunyang, Liu Haichan, and Wang Chongyang. It is often called the Queen Mother of the West who leads the fairy. Also known as the "Eastern Prince".
Those who ascend to immortals must first worship Mu Gong (that is, the Eastern Prince) and then worship the Golden Mother. Fang had to ascend to nine heavens, enter the Sanqing Palace, worship Taishang Laojun, and see Yuan Shi Tianzun. The status in the fairy world is very lofty.
In the Yuan Dynasty, Peng Zhizhong's compilation of "The Aftersound of the Crane" volume 3 contains Wang Chongyang's "Man Tingfang" words, and Shang Yunyun: "You Feng Quanzhen, successively divided the five ancestors, and slightly praised the sect." Laojun Chrysostom, personally paid to the Virgin of the West King, and gave Donghua the master. Donghua descended Zhong Licheng, passed on the metaphysics, Fuchun Liu Xiang, Lu Zuwu Huang Liang. ”
Emperor Donghua is the leader of the Quanzhen Sect and is personally appointed by Wang Chongyang. "Chongyang Zhenren Teaches Danyang Twenty-four Tips", when Wang Chongyang answered Ma Danyang's question of "what are the three lives", he said: "The Tao is always there, in the three, the Emperor of Donghua is the heart, and the Emperor of the Ten Spirits is the kidney." ”
This at least shows that Wang Chongyang not only knows the name of Emperor Donghua, but also links Emperor Donghua with Neidan cultivation.
There is a saying within Taoism that the name of the Emperor of Donghua is "Wang Xuanfu, Li Xuan, Ni Junming", etc., "Golden Lotus Zhengzong Ji" cloud: from the Tai to the Golden Mother, the Golden Mother to the White Cloud, the White Cloud to the Emperor (Li Xuan), called "Donghuazi, called Donghua Emperor or Zifu Shaoyang Jun, Donghua Zifu Shaoyang Emperor", the first ancestor of the five ancestors of the whole true north.
The clear identification of Emperor Donghua as the ancestor of Quanzhen Dao began with the "Quanzhen Liezu Fu" written by Song Defang (1183-1247, who successively studied under Liu Chuxuan, Wang Chuyi, and Qiu Chuji).
Song Defang said: "Before the Long Han Dynasty, above Chiming, the Pure True Religion had been implemented. But the sage does not speak, and the world does not know it. The person who arrested my Donghua Emperor and the prince clearly pointed to it and said: This is the true way, and then the world is terrified and knows where to return. The emperor is knotted on the shore of Qinghai, received the trick of the white clouds, planted yellow buds in Daifu, Jiangxue in Kunyu, Yin Gong is good at the people, and the secret line is far from the descendants, and then gives it the way to the Zhengyang Zi Zhongli Gong. ”
Here it is clearly said that the surname of Emperor Donghua is Wang, and his teacher is Bai Yunsuo.
Qin Zhi'an, a disciple of Song Defang, wrote the "Records of the Golden Lotus Zhengzong" (written in 1241), in the preface: "It is a religion, which originated from Donghua, flowed in Chongyang, and was sent in Changchun. ”
Volume 1, the biography of the Quanzhen Taoist patriarch, the first list of Donghua Emperor, said: the emperor's surname is Wang, the word Xuanfu, and the Taoist name Donghuazi. Born with a strange table, young admiration of the true wind, the white clouds really see and love it, said: "The sky is immortal!" "It is to lead it into the mountain, and give it the green rune jade seal, Jinke Lingwen, Dadan secret, Zhou Tian Huo, and Qinglong swordsmanship.
Mr. got it, boxed and served, three years of meticulousness, to the best of his ability. Then he retired to the hermitage to claim himself, and his forehead was called Donghua View. Taoguang has been obscure for more than 100 years, and people do not know it.
After migrating to the Yang Mountain of Wutai in Daizhou, there is now Zifu Dongtian, and there is Taoist County under the mountain. In the world for hundreds of years, there is no appearance of aging. Open Xuanzong, give full play to the wonderful Yun, Yin Gong and Wuwu, Xuande moves the sky, so the innocence is called the Emperor of Donghua, and the Purple Mansion Shaoyang Jun.
Grant the door of Zhengyang real person Zhongli Yunfang, heir to promote the Dharma. All the holy miracles cannot be described, and the true way is thus supervised, so it is established as the first ancestor of the whole truth.
The above are the earliest documents that record the life and deeds of Emperor Xuanfu of Donghua. The ancients used words to describe them, but now I am just saying it for them......
What's right and who's wrong? I also hope that the old fairy must not laugh, if there is something missing, I also hope that Haihan!
