Today in Guangjiao Temple, it is nominally a living Buddha looking for me, but in fact, it can be seen that it is a door, and if you have something to ask, it is the Hexi real person who comes forward. What I never expected was that after some nonsense, the suspicion of the old living Buddha was cleared up, how did it get to the head of the Zhengyi Sect and the upright real person?

When I went out, I felt a little uncomfortable when I saw Zeren. Qi Yunguan, those Taoist priests and dust and Zezhong, I don't like it, but this Zeren is an exception. This man has real kung fu, his mind is not stupid, and his demeanor is not so arrogant. Strictly speaking, I was suspected of blaming him for what happened last time, which made him very passive at the time, but he didn't do it in front of everyone. Seeing Zeren greeting me, I didn't just step forward and asked, "Isn't this Brother Zeren?

Zeren shook his head: "No, no, I'm waiting here for you on my master's orders, if I have something to say, it's inconvenient to ask you in public in Guangjiao Temple, his old man asked me to ask you here." ”

"Who is your master?"

Zeren: "No, it's not Hechen Zhenren, it's my uncle, my master, you just met it in Guangjiao Temple, it's Hexi Zhenren." ”

It turned out that this Zeren Daoist was not a disciple of Hechen, but a disciple of Hexi. How the master is is often known by looking at the apprentice. This Zeren's kung fu and cultivation are extraordinary, it seems that although Na Hexi is a fat man who is not amazing, he may really have two hits under his hands. I asked Zeren, "What else does Daoist Hexi have to ask me?"

Zeren didn't answer directly, but said with a smile: "Shi Ye originally represented the main sect today, and it should be the head disciple and Feng Zhenren. Uncle He Feng has a strong temperament, a cold face, and selflessness, and I'm still worried about you. Unfortunately, I had something to do with Uncle Feng, and my master came for him. My master, his old man, has always been easy-going, and I am relieved. ”

Listening to Zeren's meaning, not only did he not blame me for what happened to Qi Yunguan last time, but he was worried about me. Stretching out my hand not to hit the smiling person, I also said politely: "Thank you, Brother Dao, for worrying about me." ”

Zeren waved his hand: "Don't be in a hurry to call me Brother Dao, I won't be able to get it in the future, I'll call you Uncle Xiao...... I've also heard what you said in Guangjiao Temple about the immortals preaching the Dharma. ”

They all misunderstood that the old fairy in the dream I said was a true person. I knew what was going on, but I had to pretend to be confused: "Zeren, what do you mean by this? Isn't it okay for me to preach the Fa in my dreams? Why do you want to call me Uncle Xiao again?"

Zeren: "It turns out that you don't know that the appearance of the immortal you are talking about is that I am the ancestor of the Zhengyi Sect and the real person." ”

I continued to pretend to be confused: "But the old immortal didn't tell me that he was a true person? There should be a lot of Taoist priests in the world who wear patched Taoist robes, right? There should be more than one person holding a golden dust and using a sword-shaped hairpin, right?"

Zeren smiled: "It is said that there should be more than one, but if you dress up like this and cultivate again, you will probably be the head of the current generation." ”

Zeren said that this is a very high realm? I also wondered in my heart, the gentleman has been teaching the Fa in his dreams, can he also be compared with the true person of Shouzheng? I originally thought that this was an ordinary thing, as long as I was a cultivator, it would not be like this! The more I talked about this matter, the more I twisted it, the more I talked about it, the more I talked about it, the more I couldn't help it, and I hurriedly asked: "Actually, it's easy to figure it out, and your master will go back to the mountain and ask the senior Shouzheng to find out, why bother to come to me?"

Zeren: "How could Master Zu want to see him, he just retreated and practiced not long ago, and he couldn't get out of the customs for a while. Therefore, my master had no way to ask him, and the old man could only go back to the mountain first to discuss with Uncle Hefeng. ”

It turned out that the real person was in retreat, and I was temporarily relieved. A little uneasy, he asked again: "When will the old-timers be out of the customs?"

Zeren: "Before the sect conference. ”

"Sect Assembly, what's that?"

Zeren: "This is exactly what Ishino I want to tell you, you said in Guangjiao Temple that you want to start a sect, but is this true?"

I'm going to start a sect, which was originally just a talk, but then it became an angry phrase. These people clearly have their own sectarian portals, so what does it have to do with them when I start a sect? Why does Zeren ask me this again? Thinking of this, I said, "What about the real thing? What about the fake one?"

Zeren sighed: "It's not as simple as you think. It seems that your master has not had time to explain it to you, and you are still young and don't know the rules. ......”

Zeren explained to me the rules of the founding of the sect, and after listening to it, I really felt that it was very complicated, not as simple as I imagined. It's not like the government can set up an agency, find an office, hang up a card, and appoint a group of cadres. Since ancient times, there have been many people who have founded sects, but most of them are not recognized by practitioners all over the world, for many reasons, and the most important point is that they cannot be called gods in the world!

It is not only a religious principle that a living person cannot be called a god in the world, but also a principle of modern civilization. I've heard this before, not from what Mr. Feng said, not from Mr. Zhang, but from our politics teacher, Old Man Tang, in class. I think that Zhang Daoling founded Taoism and took Lao Tzu as the ancestor, and he himself did not dare to call himself a god in the world, as for the title of Heavenly Master, it was posthumously awarded by the emperors of previous dynasties. (Xu Gongzi's note: Jesus is not called a god in the world, and a movie called "The Da Vinci Code" was recently made in the United States, which also talked about this matter.) ）

From the perspective of religion, the most important criterion for distinguishing Orthodox Christianity from cults is this. If someone gathers to start a sect and claim to be the head of the sect, proclaiming that he is equal to the existence of God, and is called God in the world, he will not be far from being worshipped. At the same time, this also violates the first of the three major precepts in the cultivation world: do not use the Taoist magic to confuse the world and shock the world. This situation has been around for a long time, but it doesn't take long to toss for the reason. Therefore, some careerists have taken another approach, which is to misrepresent their ancestors. For example, the White Lotus Sect takes the Dharma, and the Pure Land Sect worships Maitreya Bodhisattva, although it is nondescript, and practitioners do not pay attention to it. The most interesting thing is that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is dedicated to the God of the West, but it combines the clan ideas of China, Hong Xiuquan is known as God's eldest son, Yang Xiuqing is known as God's second son, and several other leaders and so on. Even if this is not a cult, it is no different from a foreign way.

From the perspective of modern civilization, being a god in the world often only brings disaster, such as Hitler, and the emperor of small Japan. Of course, this is not easy to understand at my young age. I didn't expect that if I wanted to start a sect in the cultivation world, I would have to face this problem first, and I couldn't respect myself, and I couldn't disrespect my elders. I think that when Zhengyi opened a sect, it was the gateway that his disciples set up after the Zhengyi patriarch was feathered. If I really have the Tao and the Dharma, I can be the first to open a generation, but if I start a sect for me, it will be a matter for my disciples in the future, not for me. This is the rule of the spiritual world.

Sometimes I might think about it all night for a few sentences or a ten-word headline. Some people think that this book is not fast to write, but it is not easy for me to keep it updated daily.
