The four major Dharma sects occupy the main body of Taoism in this world, and the vast majority of Taoist priests’ lifelong learning cannot be separated from the scope of these four.
But there are not many people who can be called true practitioners on a certain path.
"In the early years of my practice, I was engaged in business, and later I had an enlightenment. It is said that I had a dream from Lingqu Wenyue Daojun. In just two days, I understood the way, shed the shackles of the world, and achieved freedom."
Walking in the courtyard, the two of them walked towards the two-story building while talking about this Taoist cultivator who was one of the few in Xizhou.
In Qimeng, in practice.
An old practitioner over seventy years old.
It can be heard that Taoist Jiang admires this person very much. Although he is from Zhengyuan Temple, not Haiyun, his master had visited him with a group of masters and disciples a few years ago. When a Taoist priest meets, he can't help but talk about Taoism. , but in the end it was his master who felt inferior and bowed down to drink tea, just like an apprentice.
"Yu Xiuxian has not been here for a long time. I heard that he went to Yuanyang Peak to devote himself to Taoism and has moved out of the small courtyard. It was later used by Zhengyuan Temple as a place to receive Taoist disciples."
Soon, Chen Yu saw this two-story Sino-French teahouse hidden in the busy city.
[Xunyuanzhai]
The vague road is far away if you look for it.
This sentence came to Chen Yu's mind. He didn't know which Taoist book he had read it in. Yunheguan didn't include many of it, and there were only a few books on the left and right.
He remembered that after just two sentences, there was another half sentence.
Search far and wide.
Beside him, Taoist Jiang interrupted his thoughts.
"Let's go, there should be more places inside."
Opening the door, sandalwood scent bursts out.
In a trance, the state of mind is peaceful, as quiet as a deep pool, and distracting thoughts are gone.
…
When the time was approaching, the two of them walked out of the small courtyard. Chen Yu raised his sleeves, raised his eyebrows and sniffed lightly. There was still a little sandalwood scent on his body.
"There is nothing interesting to see in Jingzhai. That is a matter for the senior cultivators. It is up to the elders to take care of it. Why don't Master Chen discuss Taoism with everyone in the building for a while?"
In front of the door, Taoist Jiang seemed to be unfinished. As early as when he arrived, he had expected that Taoist Chen next to him had learned a lot.
In cultivating Taoism, age depends on age, but sometimes this is not important.
To paraphrase what a Taoist priest from Haiyun Temple said, what you cultivate in Taoism is yourself. Age actually doesn’t matter, spirituality is the key.
And this man was undoubtedly one of the most spiritual Taoist priests he had ever seen.
Although it can be seen that he has not read much Taoist scriptures, his words are always surprising and enlightening, and they are not empty nonsense.
Maybe this is genius.
Taoist priest Jiang sighed silently. It was also a book of Taoism, but in the hands of these people, it became a golden book of heaven that leads directly to the road.
And in the hands of those stupid people, it may also be a heavenly book - a wordless heavenly book.
On the side, Chen Yu declined politely, saying that he would come again if he had the opportunity in the future. He was very new to Jingzhai and did not want to miss it.
Of course, in fact, he couldn't draw much inspiration from the dozen or so Taoist priests in the building. There were very few who practiced the five internal organs and were proficient in pharmacology. It was okay to talk about metaphysics and Taoism, but it would be a bit boring to talk all the time - especially They are still a group of Taoist priests who have not been practicing Buddhism for much longer than him.
In the end, it was Jiang Qinan and his friends who listened to Chen Yu talk about the mountains.
Although most of the words spoken in this discussion are my own personal experience and insights.
Relying on the experience of many real encounters with spirits and spiritual fluids, I still have no problem dealing with them.
He didn't even need to move around the Taoist classics from his previous life like he did when he first met Taoist Jiang.
No need to be a copycat again.
After leaving the small building, with a full stomach of tea, Chen Yu returned to his house. After taking care of it for a while, he turned to the outside of the city.
The Dharma assembly of Jiuqi Guangsheng Zhu Dharma Practice takes up a lot of space. Just to build the altar requires several feet in length and width, so naturally it will not fall within Pingcheng.
When leaving the city, you can see many Taoist priests wearing square scarves along the way, walking together in groups, also heading towards the foot of the mountain.
…
The first step in the Dharma assembly is meditation.
What is fasting?
Observe the majestic rituals of fasting and purify yourself together.
What we are doing today is the former four words.
In Taoism, one must purify one's body and clarify one's thoughts before setting up a ritual ceremony. But before joining, marrying, and purifying, it is necessary to lower the majestic ceremony and build a fasting platform.
When Chen Yu came to the wide place, he looked up and saw two wooden pillars standing not far away. There were no dragons and phoenixes on the pillars, but they were filled with paintings of flowers, plants, animals and birds.
On the top of the wooden pillars, each holds a round ball, all carved from sandalwood.
One is round and brushed with red juice, like the scorching sun.
One has a broken hook, soaked in a layer of lead, like a bright moon.
Those holding the yin moon face the yang, and those holding the sky yang face the yin.
All around, there were Taoist priests in solemn costumes with white beards and hair, holding staffs, whisks, mirrors and other utensils. They kept shouting and drinking. Their postures did not look old and decrepit at all, but were as light as a bird.
In all directions, there were five Taoist priests of the same age standing there. Judging from the different looks of their Taoist robes and their unusual auras, Chen Yu suspected that these were the elders of the sect mentioned by Jiang Qin'an. As for the young Taoist priests, perhaps
I could only watch from the outside like him, with no chance to participate.
Not long after, the old Taoist with long beard and white eyebrows stepped up and down, flew several feet, shuttled back and forth between two wooden pillars, and the next moment there was a crackling sound in the air, suppressing all the noise in the venue.
Tongjin!
Chen Yu looked serious, and his level was not low. At least he couldn't see it clearly. Anyway, he was higher than most people present.
I’m afraid this person is already old and rare!
It's really awesome.
Just as he was sighing, many elders from the Taoist sects surrounding the outside made noises, working their mouths and noses vigorously, and when they hummed, they burst out like thunder!
He almost thought he had been attacked by sound.
After listening carefully, I found that it was chanting one paragraph after another:
"The supreme three-dimensional Xuanyuan Shi Sanqi Zhenjun summoned the officials and envoys of the three or five meritorious officials among the ministers...
...There are golden boys holding incense and beautiful girls scattered with flowers...
May the Supreme True Dao Qi, the auspicious light of the spiritual treasure, and the sincerity of enlightenment speed up the path to the true infinite Dao..."
Dozens or hundreds of people recite it together, regardless of other things, the momentum alone is quite magnificent.
Chen Yu stood quietly on one side, his mind agitated, and as he chanted chants one after another, it seemed as if a large spiritual light was falling in front of his eyes.
Such a powerful sound...this trembling as if facing the waves of the ocean...this indescribable resonance...
His thoughts fluctuated and he unconsciously used his own sound attack method.
Rumble——
The five internal organs in the abdomen are agitating, and the sound is far less powerful and vast than the one in front of me. Instead, it is a bit muffled and inaudible.
The movement was obscured, and at this moment he fully experienced the waves of sound that were surging as if they were real.
It is so vast that it cannot be described in words.
Inside, the Taoists have not stopped, and even some young Taoist priests gathered around are reciting softly. Although they are not as good as the old practitioners, they still complement each other and echo in this open space for a long time.
"...the number starts from one, and the position becomes three. One is the ancestor of all things, and the three are the order of the two rituals...
The two rituals are combined with virtue, the three scenes are bright, the day and night are consistent, and the four seasons are carried out without force..."
At the gate of the city, several armored guards stood up straight, stretched their necks and looked curiously into the distance.
There are also villagers in the countryside who suddenly hear the chanting and don't care about their work. They kneel on the ground, trembling and kowtow, shouting that the gods will appear.
Not far from the Zhaitai, Chen Yu slowly opened his eyes.
Looking at those chanting Taoists, he felt that they were particularly amiable thanks to this opportunity.
So I chanted it myself and joined in.
However, if someone listens closely, they will find that the words coming out of Chen Yu's mouth are more hesitant, ups and downs, and have some kind of weird rhythm, which inexplicably pierces the mind and heart. After listening for a long time, it can shock other people's heart, lungs, and five internal organs...
This section excerpts part of the content of the Luotian Dajiao Wu Chaoke. In addition, the setting of the book takes place in a different world, so if there are any titles, praises, Taoist scriptures, allusions, or medicinal herbs that are not in line with reality, please do not delve into it.
The question is just something the author was lazy and came up with on the fly.
