Wudou Midao, the same religious form of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, rebelled in Ba County, and the leader "Wudou Mi Shi" Zhang Xiu attacked the county, but was not taken seriously by the Han family.

So, what is the "Five Bucket Rice Division"?

The "Five Bucket Rice Master" is the preacher who promotes the Five Bucket Rice Path. "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Emperor Xiaoling" Tang Lixian quoted Liu Aiji as saying: "Shiba County Witch Zhang Xuan cured his illness, and the healer hired five buckets of rice, called 'Five Buckets of Rice Master'. ”

"Five buckets of rice masters" is the preacher who promotes the five buckets of rice road, so what is the five buckets of rice road?

Wudou Rice Dao, also known as Zhengyi, Tianshi Dao, and Zhengyi Mengwei Dao, is one of the earliest sects of Taoism. According to historical records, during the period of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was founded by Zhang Daoling in Heming Mountain, Shu County (now north of Dayi County, Chengdu, Sichuan). According to the records of the Book of the Later Han Dynasty and the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, those who enter the Tao must produce five buckets of rice, so they get this name, because they are also called "Mi Wu", "Mi Thief", and "Mi Dao". In addition, some people believe that this name may also be related to the worship of Wufang Xingdou (Nandou, Beidou, etc.) and Doumu, and Wudoumi is "Wudoumu" (another theory is that Wudou worship and Shudi's Mi religion are combined, that is, "Wudou Mi" religion). Because the disciples respect Zhang Daoling as the heavenly master, it is also called "the way of the heavenly master". In addition, during the Guanghe period (178-184), Zhang Xiu preached in Bashu and Hanzhong. The method is somewhat similar to that of Zhang Jiao, such as using Fu Shui to cure diseases. But in general, the sect that is closer to Zhang Daoling, for example, also has sacrificial wine, learns the Tao Te Ching, and worships five buckets of rice, so history also calls his sect of Taoism "Five Buckets of Rice Dao".

Zhengyi is also known as Zhengyi. Its ancestor falsely claimed to be Zhang Daoling in the late Han Dynasty and the way of "Zhengyi Alliance" created by him, and was later called the way of the Heavenly Master. In fact, in the first year of Zhengyi to Yuanchengzong Yuanzhen (1295), Zhang Youcai was the 38th generation of Heavenly Master by the Mongols, and he took charge of Jiangnan Taoism, especially in the eighth year of Dade (1304), he was awarded the title of "Zhengyi Sect Master, presiding over the Three Mountains Runes". Later, he was awarded the "Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor", sealed the national prince, and gave a gold seal.

The Northern Heavenly Master Dao was formed by Kou Qianzhi, the first officially recognized Taoist Heavenly Master in feudal history, to reform the Five Bucket Rice Dao. Kou Qian said that Taishang Laojun personally came to Songyue to confer the "position of Heavenly Master", and gave him 20 volumes of "The Ring of Reciting New Science in the Clouds", and passed on the method of obeying qi and guiding the formula, and ordered him to "clean up Taoism, remove the three (referring to Zhang Ling, Zhang Heng, and Zhang Lu) pseudo-laws, rent rice money tax and the art of male and female harmony." "Etiquette is the first priority. And add to it to take food and retreat. Its main ashram was established in present-day Datong, Shanxi (formerly known as Pingcheng). The main contents of his reforms were: to clean up Taoism, to preach the "Rings of the New Science in the Clouds" preached by the New Heavenly Master, to preach the "New Branch" and other ways of purifying the void, and to advocate focusing on etiquette as the first and taking it to take food and close practice, and his New Heavenly Master Dao practices are: Taichang 8th year [423]. There are Taoist priests Li Puwen's "Lutu Zhenjing" and other Jiao rituals that moved Emperor Taiwu. Emperor Taiwu personally went to the altar in the third year of Taiping Zhenjun [442]. Receiving the Taoist talisman, the new Heavenly Master Tao was combined with the imperial power, and it once became the state religion. Growing and growing. [1] In this way, the new Heavenly Master Tao attaches great importance to Jiao rituals, advocates etiquette, and changes the past teachings of using Fu to heal diseases and pay attention to refining forms, especially in the eighth year of Taichang (423), there are Taoist priests Li Puwen's "Lutu Zhenjing" and other Jiao rituals moved Emperor Taiwu, and Emperor Taiwu personally visited the Taoist altar in the third year of Taiping Zhenjun (442), and received Taoist talismans, so that the new Heavenly Master Tao and imperial power were combined, and once became the state religion, continued to grow and develop, and laid a historical foundation for the "three religions in one" in later generations. Kou Tianshi's "removal of the three pseudo-laws" in the north was far-reaching and implemented. Later, the Quanzhen Dao that arose in the north had nothing to do with the dragon and tiger Zhang Tianshi. However, it is reported that Wang Chongyang's Zhonglu Danfa is inextricably linked with the Shangqing School of Maoshan Shangqing School "Shangqing Huangting Jing", and Qiu Zu also received the Shangqing Law Urn, wore the Shangqing Hibiscus crown, and wore the Shangqing Cave Zhenyu Luo Xiaotai robe...... According to the examination, the "True Rhyme" that is popular throughout the country also originated from Maoshan Shangqing. In the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, some early Taoist sects, such as "Taiping Dao" and "Yu Jun Dao," were in decline due to the blows of the rulers, while the new sects "Lingbao School" and "Shangqing School" were in the beginning of the development stage; although there were some immortal Taoist priests like Zhang Zhong and Wang Jia, they were only a loose Taoist group formed in the form of a master-apprentice relationship, and in the name of Taoist Zhenwei, different people in various places under the name of "Li Hong" disappeared in an instant; at this time, Tianshi Tao was still a banner of Taoism, and basically it was also a synonym for Taoism. However, due to political turmoil, the division of the world's forces, coupled with the fact that there are always many believers, and there is a lack of prestige Zhang Tianshi's successors, the headquarters of the Heavenly Master Dao in Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi Province, is out of reach of the subordinate "governance" of the sacrificial wine, and the internal organization of the Heavenly Master Dao has fallen into serious chaos. There are also those who distort the theories of the Heavenly Master's Taoism, such as "the art of the house," so that "the practice of lewdness is rampant and insults Taoism." In addition, the lower-class Taoists have repeatedly used Taoist organizations to launch uprisings in the name of Li Hong (Lao Jun's pseudonym) and Liu Ju, which have continued throughout the ages, causing Taoism to be closely watched by the forces of various divisions and dynasties. In view of this, many high Taoist sages were determined to reform and organize Taoism, and Kou Qianzhi in the Northern Dynasties and Lu Xiujing in the Southern Dynasties were the leaders at that time. Kou Qianzhi (365-448 alive) used the "Ring of Reciting the New Science in the Clouds" (also known as "Lao Junyin Reciting the Commandments" (also known as the "Laojun Yin Reciting the Commandments", "Lao" is an excerpt of the "Cloud") and the "Lutu Zhenjing" taught by Li Puwen, the great-grandson of Lao Tzu, to carry out a resolute reform of the Tao of the Heavenly Master, and carried out a comprehensive reform of the teachings and systems of early Taoism, absorbing the five constants of Confucianism (father's righteousness, mother's kindness, brother's friend, brother's gong, and son's filial piety) concept, absorbing the etiquette and precepts of Confucianism and Buddhism, establishing a relatively complete Taoist doctrine and fasting rituals, and reforming the hereditary system of Taoist official positions, advocating meritocracy and abiding by the precepts and practice. He attached great importance to the Taoist Zhai Jiao rituals, and added many rituals and rituals to Taoism, which also laid the foundation for the Taoist Zhai rituals in later generations. After Kou Qian's reform, the Tao of the Heavenly Master was not only supported by the lower classes, but also suited the needs of the ruling class at that time. For a while, the haze was completely removed, and there were countless followers of the government and the opposition, and later generations called the Heavenly Master Dao after Kou Qian's reform as the "New Heavenly Master Dao", or "the Northern Heavenly Master Dao".

The Nantian Master Dao was formed by Mr. Jian Lian and Lu Xiujing's reform and development of the Jiangnan Heavenly Master Dao. It is mainly manifested in his rectification and transformation of the Jiangnan Tianshi Taoist organization, and actively collecting and sorting out Taoist scriptures, formulating Taoist Zhaijiao rituals, and promoting the reform of the old Taoism in the Southern Dynasties and the formation of a new Taoism among scholars. In particular, during the seven years from the fifth year of Emperor Xiaowu (461) to the third year of Emperor Taishi of the Song and Ming Dynasty (467), Lu Xiujing lived in seclusion in Lushan to build the Taixu Temple (known as the Jian Lonely View in later generations). It has successively expanded the Baiyun Pavilion, the Chaozhen Pavilion, the Alchemy Well, the Medicine Mortar, the Medicine Washing Pool, etc. After the rise of the Void. Successively there are dozens of Taoist temples such as Kangwang Temple, Chongshan Temple, Yongzhen Temple, Zhaode Temple, White Crane Temple, Guangfu Temple, Taiping Temple, etc., all of which are grand in scale, majestic and magnificent, so they are known as the "Eighth Cave of Yongzhen" of Taoism. With the expansion of Lushan Taoism. Its status and reputation continue to prominence. It has gradually become an important dojo in the north and south. So that the Quartet high road came one after another. In the Tang and Song dynasties, there were a large number of high roads such as Xu Jian, Qian Lang, Sun Sheng, Xi Fazun, etc., who gathered in Lushan, and there were many high roads in Lushan. The fame was shocked in Jiangnan. Lu Xiujing formulated and perfected the ritual of Zhaijiao. Absorbing the Confucian tradition of loyalty, filial piety, etiquette and righteousness, and taking it as the rules that Taoists must abide by, emphasizing the priority of loyalty and filial piety, this not only ensures that Taoist priests strictly abide by the precepts and devote themselves to cultivating good and meritorious service, but also further improves the religious etiquette. He devoted himself to the theoretical study of Taoism, and authored the "Lingbao Sutra Catalogue Preface", "Taishang Cave Xuanling Treasure Brief Text", "Dong Xuanling Bao Zhai Said Light Candle Punishment Lamp Wishing Instrument", "Taishang Cave Xuanling Treasure Granting Instrument", "Daomen Keluo", "Dong Xuanling Treasure Five Senses", etc., he will be these fasting ritual works and collected Taoist scriptures such as prescriptions, runes, etc., a total of 1228 volumes, has been in the world 1090 volumes, etc., all using the method of "three holes, four auxiliaries and twelve categories", becoming an unprecedented Taoist book classification in Taoist history, he will organize these Taoist books into the " Catalogue of the Three Caves Sutras", in the seventh year of Taishi (471), it was presented to the imperial court, and was deeply appreciated by the Song Wen and Ming Emperors, so that "the teaching of Lingbao is great in the world", especially he summarized the "three caves", reformed the old Heavenly Master Dao, and advocated Taoism based on Zhaiyi, so its reputation continued to grow, and the southern part of the Yangtze River became the leader of Jiangnan Taoism, and the Northern Wei Dynasty Kou Qian's reform of the "Northern Heavenly Master Dao" coexisted in the north and south, and all laid the historical and theoretical foundation for the "three religions in one" in later generations.

Zhengyi is also known as Zhengyi faction, its ancestor falsely claimed to be Zhang Daoling in the late Han Dynasty and the way he created the "Zhengyi Alliance", and later called the way of the Heavenly Master. In fact, Zhengyi was formally formed in the first year of Yuanzhen (1295) by the Mongol heir as the thirty-eighth generation of heavenly masters, and took charge of Jiangnan Taoism, especially in the eighth year of Dade (1304), he was awarded the title of "Zhengyi Sect Master, presiding over the Three Mountains Fulu". Later, he was awarded the "Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor", sealed the national prince, and gave a gold seal. When the more than 7,008 volumes of the "Daozang" scripture plate were destroyed and burned by the Yuan Chamber, the descendants of the Zhang family shouted long live to the mountain, bent their knees to seek glory, and sacrificed the dignity and orthodoxy of Taoism in exchange for their own strong merger of the three mountains and the rights and interests of Jiangnan Taoism. The teachings of Taoism, such as the fundamental teachings of Taoism, such as moral education, natural non-action, tranquility and lack of desire, indisputability, and longevity, all originate from the Taishang Tao Te Ching. When the patriarch Zhang Daoling established the Taoist Order, he used the 5,000 texts ("Tao Te Ching") as the holy text, and wrote the "Lao Tzu Xiang'er Note", expounding the main teachings and practice standards, and initially establishing the Taoist doctrine and ideological system, and using the name of "Zhengyi" to show that the teachings advocated are the orthodox religion of Taishang Zhenyi. Moreover, the Taoist scriptures and the writings of many high Taoist real people are also based on the holy text of the Tao Te Ching, which is fully developed, or made necessary interpretations. The "Nanhua Sutra" and "Chongxu Sutra" respected by Taoism inherit the ideas of Taishang's "Tao Te Ching", and enrich and elaborate the Taoist ideas of cultivating the body, spiritual leisure, sitting and forgetting health, and immortal changes, so that the Taoist doctrine that emphasizes rationality will transition to the Taoist doctrine under the inheritance and exposition of the high Taoism in later generations, and blend with each other. The Taiping Sutra is based on religious education, and fully explains the creation theory of the "Tao" of the Tao Te Ching and the doctrine of "the Tao of Heaven and the Tao Te Ching" that "the Tao of Heaven is more than is damaged and makes up for the shortcomings". Ge Hong's real people talk about the art of immortals, which should also belong to the system of Taishang Taoism. The "Book of Virtues" is based on the theme of "Immortal Dao and Noble Life, Immeasurable People", which embodies the fundamental meaning of the "Tao Te Ching". In short, the doctrines and ideas of Taoism are all fundamentally based on the Tao Te Ching, so Taoism respects the Tao Te Ching as a sacred text. (To be continued......)
