two hundred and sixty-five
It was also in December of the same year that the Duke of Guise and all the Catholic leaders were assassinated by the king's guards! From here we can see that bullying the king, making the king submit, threatening the king, and ignoring the king,
Letting the king's code of conduct and thoughts obey one's own, etc., is very, very serious. Now, everyone is dead, right?
However, because Catholicism used force to force the king to surrender, all high-level Catholic officials were assassinated by the king's guards. Riots broke out in Paris, and a new regime headed by the Guise family was established. This was the real preparation to kill the king.
Henry III also had to choose to form an alliance with the Bourbon family, mainly to protect himself first and expand his military power. In 1589, King Henry of Navarre became King Henry IV of France after Henry III was assassinated.
.
So who assassinated the previous king? In fact, both the current French King Henry IV and the Catholic Church wanted the previous king to die, because the Catholic Church had a grudge against the previous king, and the current Henry IV should
They want power, so I don’t dare to speculate on the mystery. In short, it must be the previous king who was sent by one of the two major sects to assassinate him. There is absolutely no doubt about this, because they are the only ones who can get close to the king.
But the Catholic Church must refuse to recognize Henry IV as King of France, because that's okay? Henry IV is the leader of the Protestant Church, and if he becomes King of France now, will the Catholic Church still have a way to survive? Isn't there going to be another massacre?
Did they have something to do with the Catholic Church? So because the Catholic Church was in the middle, Henry IV was unable to enter Paris. It seems that this matter will require a very, very outrageous large-scale war to get a better solution.
Another problem is that at this time, people's minds were initially liberated, so more than 90% of the people in France believed in the old church, Catholicism. Therefore, Henry IV wanted to use the new church as a new church member.
As he entered Paris, it seemed that he had to completely annihilate the entire Catholic Church, but he currently did not have such military power. Therefore, on July 25, 1593, Henry IV, under such heavy pressure and
Forced by the situation, Henry IV converted to Catholicism at Saint-Denis Cathedral and reached a truce agreement with the Catholic Church.
On March 22, 1594, Henry IV entered Paris, and issued the Nantes Pardon in April 1598, declaring Catholicism as the state religion, and Huguenots had religious followers throughout France.
Freedom. The Nantes Pardon retained some privileges of the Huguenots, which in disguise broke the situation of Catholic dominance. At this point, the Huguenot War, which had lasted for more than thirty years, ended.
From the above, it is not difficult to see that the entire war process has nothing to do with religious disputes between sects. It is completely a struggle for hegemony and even power between a few high-level people, or a group of people.
, but the believers and even the soldiers who did not understand the truth of this matter at all, they only understood hatred and orders from their superiors, so this led to the war that lasted for more than thirty years throughout France.
But in the past thirty years of war, if we say that civilians have not been affected, then this is absolutely nonsense, because we must understand one thing very clearly, in fact, whether it is the believers between the two major sects, or the so-called
The soldiers in the palace are all civilians. To put it bluntly, it is the death of these large numbers of civilians that ultimately determines the interests and status of a very few people. In fact, this is the true face of war.
The true nature of this war must have been that it had a tragic impact on the lives of civilians throughout France and even other aspects. Don’t those dead soldiers or believers have family members? How many families were destroyed! Even the entire France
The military strength of the country has been very seriously affected. If any neighboring country has ulterior motives, wouldn't it be possible to take the opportunity to destroy France?
So the knowledge point we get from this war is that in the future, we should not say that war is cruel. No one is innocent. In fact, it is not as complicated as we all think. The reason for the war is actually very simple, because even if
Even if the Protestants win, or the old believers win, the quality of life of the common people at the bottom will not change much anyway. The common people are still common people, they still have to work, they still have to pay taxes, and they still have to be treated by the people at the top
They may look down upon or even treat them as pariahs, or the higher-ups treat civilians as talking tools. In short, war is actually meaningless to us civilians except for life and death decisions.
Okay, now our analysis of the Huguenot War has ended here, but when analyzing this religious issue, I suddenly remembered how our Chinese Taoism handles this kind of thing. We simply
Let’s take a closer look and see how China’s Taoism dealt with the invasion of Buddhism before.
It is obvious that the arrival of Buddhism will definitely have a huge impact on the interests of Taoism! Because all Buddhist monks do not work, they need the support of all devout believers to maintain their existence, and the core of Buddhism
The concept had already changed when it was introduced from India, so Buddhism is very decadent internally. In fact, it has the same concept as the so-called Catholicism.
And our Chinese Taoists are not like Buddhism, who always speak gorgeous language and beautify everything. Instead, they do not beautify themselves, but do practical things to get paid, instead of using rhetoric to deceive us civilians, and then deceive us.
The wealth of our common people provides for their quality of life. In fact, Taoist priests are very miserable. There is a good saying, that is, a fat monk is a thin Taoist priest. In ancient China, Taoist priests were generally related to burial, just like today
Just like the funeral team, don’t our today’s funeral teams not collect rewards? Therefore, the payment of Taoist priests is legal! It is also reasonable and reasonable, because he really did something! There is also the practice of martial arts to strengthen the military force of the entire China.
Then Taoist priests are also a profession of reading Feng Shui. They mainly understand the mysteries of the Five Elements and Bagua. They are also a fortune-telling profession. The main basis is the "Book of Changes". Until today's modern times, some of us think that Feng Shui is a lie? Let me tell you.
Let me explain to you that the existence of Feng Shui is not a lie, it is real! This is actually a science. It is based on the topography and landforms to determine whether a natural disaster will occur in this place, such as an earthquake or something. But we
The ancient Taoist priests did not understand this so-called science, because they did not have the concept of science, so they used their own imagination to deify this science to a certain extent. If you ask me how important Feng Shui is? Then I
All it takes is an example.
The mausoleum of our Qin Shihuang, that place is a dragon vein according to Feng Shui. According to my personal opinion, the dragon vein is an auspicious treasure land that is not prone to natural disasters. And facts have proved that our ancestors’ attainments in Feng Shui
Very, very high! It’s so outrageous that our descendants can’t believe it! Because until now, when have you ever heard of a natural disaster occurring in Qin Shi Huang’s mausoleum? An earthquake? Yes! But it couldn’t be shaken because of geological reasons. So.
My definition of Feng Shui is that this kind of existence is a science, but what I don't understand is why our ancestors were able to discover these Feng Shui treasures just by using the landforms? If it were me? I feel like I have to use scientific instruments to drill into the ground.
Several thousand meters or even tens of thousands of meters can be used to initially determine whether this place is a treasure land and whether natural disasters such as earthquakes and faults will occur. However, the Feng Shui of our ancestors does not require this at all. Just like a traditional Chinese medicine doctor,
It’s so outrageous to know whether a woman is pregnant just by counting her pulse without using X-rays or touching her belly. I can’t figure it out. However, I finally figured it out because it’s the pulse of two people, but I don’t understand Feng Shui.
I still don’t understand. I will continue to research in the future. Don’t worry. When I find out, I will tell you the truth to get a glimpse of the supreme wisdom of our ancestors!
Then there is the matter of Taoist priests telling fortunes. Are Taoist priests cheating money? In fact, I don’t know if Taoist priests are cheating money now, and I have never been in contact with them. The only Taoist priest I have contacted is Taoist Master Qingyun. At the beginning, I also asked
What am I, Taoist Master Qingyun? But let’s stop this topic and analyze what the Taoist’s fortune telling is based on. In fact, it is the "Book of Changes", but in order to find out what the Book of Changes is, is it superstition? Or is it science? I want to do it.
After understanding this matter, I copied the "Book of Changes" four times with a pen. Now I will share my own opinions.
After copying the "Book of Changes" four times, I still don't understand fortune telling. I just found that the "Book of Changes" is the ultimate development law of everything in our world. It is not superstitious at all, it is completely scientific! For example, in the "Book of Changes"
Among the sixty-four hexagrams, the only hexagram in which all lines are auspicious is the Qian hexagram. Why are they all auspicious? It is very simple and easy to understand. Nothing bad will happen to a modest person, because everyone is auspicious.
People who like to be humble, this is the essence of being a human being. Of course, there is definitely more than these contents in the Book of Changes. The sixty-four hexagrams contain all things, and they are absolutely the laws of development of all things at the level of the heaven. The scope is absolutely wide enough to make any of us
It’s incredible. If you are interested, you can verify what I said. I’m not afraid that you will verify it.
As for using the I Ching to predict fortunes, I think roughly, just roughly. I think our ancestors used the laws of the development of these things to predict the future direction and tell a person what to do in order to avoid some disasters that are bound to happen. For example,
If I steal money, the I Ching will immediately predict that what will happen after I steal the money is that I will either be caught by the police or eventually become a complete thief. Therefore, the I Ching will give suggestions to stop stealing or transfer the money.
