Chapter 429
And it happened that these people subjectively believed that they should and could "destroy human desires". So they became accustomed to using this standard to demand and evaluate others. In fact, others cannot "destroy human desires", so they tend to be dissatisfied with others, which causes interpersonal relationships and cruel interpersonal environments.
Well, I'm going to go far, fucking, every time I always like to walk along the slope, I found that I had already run over three thousand miles. As soon as I raised my head, Liu Shuang and Yuan Tiangang were staring at me, then I remembered that the matter had not finished yet.
"Haha, I don't know where I'm thinking. Where did I just say?" I've been too far away and forgot what I said just now. Sweat first.
"I just said it again. I thought that all the fellow Taoists of all sects were not the same. They would speak their own ways and their own laws in the Taoist doctrine." Yuan Tiangang had no choice but to repeat it again.
"Okay! Wonderful, so wonderful." I applauded and praised Yuan Shenshu's incisive remarks. Yuan Tiangang seemed to be scared by me, as if he had just swallowed a goose egg and was stuck in his throat. He held an orchid with his fingers up for a long time and couldn't make a fart. Liushuang on the side kept expressing his stomach. What's wrong? Are you unhappy to praise you?
Liushuang seemed to think it was inappropriate to smile, so she moved her body, leaned into my ear, and said softly: "Young Master, you have praised my master just now." It was like an orchid scented on my face, numb and scented, just like the petals of spring. I really wanted to ask if this little sister had eaten any high-end brand of chewing gum.
"Oh, actually, this guy is thirsty." I don't know how to describe myself. Yuan Tiangang must have been a little depressed, and sat there grinning and showing his incisive teeth to me to express his understanding. In one sentence, the first time of praise may be true. But the second time it sounds like something is wrong.
I was a little embarrassed to wipe the sweat on my forehead with tea. It seemed that this habit was almost natural, so I had to be careful in the future.
I coughed: "So, we must strictly regulate and discipline ourselves, and combine the national conditions. Our Tang Dynasty was an enlightened and prosperous era. We must act as a booster for the country's development, and not become a stepping stone to prevent the country's development. Therefore, we can divide the Taoist "Tao" into several levels: Laozi and other natural saints can comprehend the "Supreme Tao". Zhuangzi and other philosophers, sages, and even local literati and officials who claim to be cultural elites can explore the mysterious philosophical logic of heaven and earth, life, and continue to develop the philosophical thoughts with Chinese characteristics; ordinary Taoists, in addition to religious activities,
You can use your brain to actually study the principles of all things, which is usually called "the means" they use, and then understand the key points of "Tao" from practice. That is the ultimate knowledge, that is, the truth or the essence of things. After all, Taoists need to read scriptures, basically have a certain level of culture, and have no worries about food and clothing. They have a certain amount of financial resources and energy, and can devote themselves to the research on things. In this way, they are linked to Confucianism and improve Taoism's excessive flaws, and at the same time cultivate Taoist practical scholars, and make Taoism a tool needed by society and the country."
"In this way, my Taoism has achieved several advantages over the country and the people." I raised my eyebrows proudly.
Yuan Tiangang looked through the manuscript he wrote down, and nodded with relief: "It's true. However, I still want to hear the opinions of my beloved brother. Maybe I can get something from it."
I praise me, but I like it. Since that's the case, let's talk about it in detail. What's wrong with him? I stood up, and my butt was numb when I sat down. I looked up at the sky. It was already a whole day, and the sunset had already floated into the sky. I stood at the threshold and said, "Master Taoism, right? My Taoism is quite related to the art of medicine and agriculture. I don't know if I can say this."
Yuan Tiangang nodded without saying a word. "So, we can start from this aspect and popularize medical skills within our Taoism. We should use the technique of seeking death and helping the wounded, so as to give to the people and cure diseases and save people. The people will naturally be grateful to our teachings. As for those alchemists, such as Taoist Luo and others, they are actually useful."
"Oh?" Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but widen his eyes. Why? Because there are many people practicing external alchemy in Taoism, three or four out of the dozen are practicing external alchemy. Since Uncle Li issued the order, external alchemy has lost the market, which does not mean that those alchemy scholars have no contribution to the country and the people. At least in ancient China, they have their own achievements. Although everything they do cannot make people immortal, why continue to study these things in all aspects? Isn't this also exploring the truth and pursuing a direction and goal of asking the Tao? They can continue to carry forward their spirit in this area and strive to make due contributions to the biochemical cause of the Tang Dynasty.
Yuan Tiangang nodded: "My brother's words are deeply loved by my heart." This is equivalent to pulling those soldiers in the place of death back into the Taoist camp and cannot live forever. You can change the angle and take a step back. Similarly, the road is different, and there will be a vast sky ahead. It not only unites Taoist people and unifies people's hearts. In this way, Yuan Tiangang cannot see the benefits of such merits and great things, unless he is a fool.
Another point is that after death, there is hell to accommodate sinners, and there is also heaven to accommodate good people. In this way, people are driven to be kind. Moreover, the stars in the sky are the best prove that Taoism has great connection with stars, and this time, it is just to make the people of the world close together. Every night on a clear sky, they can pray to the sky, seek blessings to their ancestors, to our Taoist emperors, or to seek spiritual comfort.
Another point is that the Emperor of Heaven is born in chaos. Therefore, he is the ultimate point of the natural earth, that is, the end point of the Tao, that is, Wuji. This point must be determined. It just happens to be in line with the Taoist theory that Taoism produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things.
Moreover, Taoist priests are all people who learn literature and read and are good at treating medicine. They can also assist the government, such as the Loyal Soul Temple, and Taoist priests who follow the army, not only save lives and help the wounded, but also spread teachings in the army to allow soldiers to gain spiritual comfort on the edge of life and death.
In this way, the Taoism is transformed into the world. The birth is for the purpose of practicing and exploring true knowledge. Entering the world is also a kind of cultivation, and it can accumulate merits to prove the great way, and cooperate with the ruling class. In this way, the people, that is, the lower class, and the ruling class, that is, the upper class, and at the same time, have obtained recognition and approval from these social systems, what else can be stopped from the development and growth of Taoism?
"As for the religious and immortal structure system we mentioned before, I know so much. If there is anything wrong, I will be fully and supplemented in the future, but I must pay attention to maintaining the original purpose of Taoism." I finally made a summary. Well, I can't stop summing up, I'm almost hungry.
Yuan Tiangang breathed a long sigh of relief. He signaled me to sit down. He saw my stomach rubbing and then woke up. He slapped his head: "Oh. I discussed with my brother, but I didn't expect that I had forgotten to eat. Liushuang, go to your senior brothers quickly. Let them make some food, so hurry up. I love you, please forgive me for being rude."
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Where are you, I'm so kind. In fact, I just felt very hungry at this moment. Time passed so quickly. In a blink of an eye, a day had passed." I smiled at Yuan Tiangang, picked up the tea and poured it into a big mouthful.
Soon, Liushuang brought the stool and walked in, and put the fine wine and food on it. It seemed that the Taoist priests in the Loyal Soul Temple really know how to enjoy it.
The chicken, duck, fish and meat were all sorted up. Well, it’s better to do Taoism. I turned my face to the side and looked a little greedy Liushuang smiled: "Little Sister Liushuang, how about it? Since I’m hungry, I’ll eat some together."
"I'm not hungry." Liu Shuang quickly turned her face and made a look of a Taoist nun, but the swallowing movement still made me see clearly. She almost lit up her back teeth. Liu Shuang glared at me in shame and anger, and continued to turn her face into ignorance. Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, OK, Liu Shuang, since the young master said that, why not eat with the teacher? Go and get a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Liushuang responded to Yuan Tiangang. He turned around, poked me with his eye dart, and deliberately stopped on the ground with a heavy blow.
"It's better for us to Taoism." I sighed and swallowed a large piece of fat and tender chicken.
"Oh? Why do you say that?" Yuan Tiangang was very slow in eating, and he didn't eat chicken skin. Who knew how to save food.
