With the founding of Legalism, an important step was added to the dazzling civilization of humanity. Since then, it has penetrated the entire long river of humanity and influenced the theoretical reality of the entire human civilization.
Its significance is so great and has been circulated for a long time that it even surpasses the Zhouyi and any theory of hundreds of schools of thought. It is a rare event of great merit and virtue after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of the human race. Humanity's destiny flourishes again, and the brewing supreme creation takes a further step, and
A very mysterious connection developed between Ji Xuanmiao.
Lao Dan and Kong Qiu were also a little stunned. Lao Dan didn't expect to be overtaken by Ji Xuanmiao and get the chance to be number one in a hundred schools.
Confucius, on the other hand, had no idea that establishing a doctrine would bring boundless merit, which made him more determined to formally establish Confucianism.
The same is true for other great powers who seek opportunities. However, it is not easy to establish a doctrine. This is the second most important act after establishing a great religion. Not only must there be a rigorous theoretical system, but it must also be in line with one's own way, and more importantly, it must be in line with humanity.
The greater the impact of development on the human race, the more merit and luck it will gain.
After Ji Xuanmiao founded the doctrine, he was asked by Emperor Zhou to learn about Legalism. Although he was eager to learn from it, he lacked the courage and ambition to reform, so he could only sigh with regret.
Confucius met Lao Dan and spoke about benevolence and righteousness. Lao Dan said: "When chaff enters the eyes, it will turn the world upside down. Mosquitoes and other small insects bite the skin, and people will not be able to sleep all night. The poison of benevolence and righteousness makes people confused.
Nothing can cause greater harm to people than benevolence and righteousness."
"If you want to keep the world from losing its simplicity, you should act naturally and follow the laws of nature. Why should you preach benevolence and righteousness like beating a drum to chase a fleeing person?"
"The white swan does not need to bathe every day and its coat is naturally white. The black crow does not need to be dyed with black every day and its coat is naturally black. The black of the crow and the white of the swan come from nature. There is no one who is better or worse. Everything in the world is the same.
It is a natural development, so why do you have to put on the shackles of benevolence and righteousness to forcefully standardize what is right and what is wrong? This is only your understanding of right and wrong, not universal right and wrong."
Confucius said: "There is no right or wrong in heaven and earth, but the development of things has its own laws, good and bad. My way is the heavenly mind of the upper body, combining the benevolence and the way of heaven, and dividing good and bad into right and wrong.
Just like Yin and Yang, if there is more white, there will be less black. I use this to guide the development of humanity and make everything lean towards the good side and avoid the bad side."
Lao Dan sighed: "Oh, Qiu has achieved enlightenment!"
Confucius returned from Lao Dan and did not speak for three days. Ji Xuanmiao asked, "What do you think of Lao Dan when you see him?"
Confucius said: "Before I saw him, I thought he should be like a dragon. When put together, he becomes a whole. When scattered, he becomes a gorgeous literary talent. He rides on the clouds and rests between yin and yang. But when I see him, he should be like a dragon.
After meeting him, I realized that Long Yuan could not describe him. He is the incarnation of Tao, the ultimate manifestation of the mysteries of heaven and earth. Among the people I have ever met, no one is more consistent with Tao than him."
Ji Xuanmiao said: "This is because Brother Kong is ignorant and ignorant. The Three Realms are so big that there are so many sages and sages. Let's just say that Brother Kong, his achievements in the future will be no worse than those of Lao Dan. When he looks back on today, Fang Xiaodao will have endless ideas. What he once was
, is the frog at the bottom of the well!"
Confucius was silent for a while, and then said cheerfully: "What Brother Ji said is true. Looking at me now, and looking at me in the State of Lu, I feel as if I have lived in another world. The future is long, and a gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement and work hard all day long in order to pursue the great road."
"Okay, Brother Kong's words are very kind!" Ji Xuanmiao said: "I wonder what Brother Kong's plans are next?"
Confucius said: "I will continue to travel around the world to improve my Confucianism. I hope to be able to become a family like Brother Ji soon."
Ji Xuanmiao said: "If I want to preach and teach and promote Legalist thoughts, I'd better go with Brother Kong. You and I can use Confucianism and Legalism together, and maybe it will be more effective!"
So the two of them bid farewell to Lao Dan and embarked on their way to defend their country. Confucius said: "Senior Lao Dan has already studied heaven and man. He has memorized all the books in the collection room. Why are he still here? If he preached to the world, wouldn't it be in the human world?
A blessing?"
Ji Xuanmiao smiled and said calmly: "Lao Dan is sorting out Taoist theories and creating Taoist doctrines, making the mysterious and obscure sectarian doctrines accessible to the people and becoming a universal philosophy that is easy to understand but has profound principles."
"This is just like Brother Kong's Book of Changes and my Xuanzi. Although there is no secret method of cultivation, the principles contained are all-encompassing and are the laws of the operation of things in the heaven and earth. They can be seen and understood by gods and mortals."
"This is from top to bottom, from inside to outside, integrating the entire Taoist theory and Qi Luck, becoming a unified Taoist sect with wider influence."
"This move makes Taoist concepts take root among the people and is no longer limited to believers. Everyone can understand it. It can be used as a guiding light in life, or it can be used as a policy to govern the country and the people. It is everywhere and everywhere.
No matter what, the luck is also continuous. Combined with the higher level of cultivation methods to become immortals, Xuanmen's luck is stable. There may be ups and downs in the future, but there will never be a decline."
Confucius was deep in thought. Although he did not talk about strange powers and chaotic spirits, he did not deny their existence. He just felt that a gentleman should follow the straight path and there is no need to make a fuss about it.
"In this way, the three religions of Xuanmen can be collectively referred to as Taoism. This word is invisibly combined with Taoism, and it is innately contaminated with a certain amount of Qi. As the first sect established in the ancient world, Xuanmen does have this qualification."
While the two were talking about Lao Dan, he was also sorting out his Five Thousand Words. This is something that must be in line with humanity and take root in the human race. If it is done as a human race, there will naturally be no barriers, so that
Taoist concepts are truly integrated with human civilization and absorb each other.
Even if Taoism declines one day, but other doctrines absorb its ideas, it can be regarded as another way of existence, and it will naturally benefit the luck. If it is reversed, it is impossible to form a relationship between Buddha and demon.
Time passed by a hundred years, and Lao Dan wrote the Tao Te Ching based on Taoist ideas. His mission of reincarnating into the human race was about to be completed, so he resigned from his official position and rode an ox to the west.
In Dachitian, Lao Tzu felt something and said to the Duobao Daoist who was sitting in front of him listening to the sermon: "The time has come. The Buddhists sent Medicine Master Buddha to the lower world to fight for the creation of humankind. At this time, they had no intention of developing Mahayana Buddhism. Regarding Mahayana Buddhism,
I have explained it clearly to you. When the time comes for you to establish Mahayana Buddhism and become the founder of one religion, wouldn't it be better than being a prisoner now?"
Taoist Duobao said expressionlessly: "Master, don't worry, I have some understanding. But if I establish Mahayana Buddhism and a Buddhist saint kills me, what should I do?"
I said calmly: "If they take action to kill you, Pindao will let Lao Dan kill the Medicine Buddha and make him completely dead. Not only will he lose the opportunity to snatch the creation of the human race, but also the ambition of Emperor Qinghua will be shattered.
"
A sneer flashed across Taoist Duobao's lips. This uncle was indeed cruel and ruthless. He looked kind and kind, like the old man next door, but when he did things, he was extremely decisive. Not long after he had wiped out Jie Jiao, he began to make plans to harm Buddhism again.
It's just that this is beneficial to you. Since you are destined to be reincarnated into Buddhism and you can't resist, you must actively accept it and start seeking the greatest benefits.
There are many disciples of the Jie Sect in Buddhism. If you go there and raise your arms, you will immediately become a sect of your own. When the time comes, you may not have the opportunity to bring them back to the Jie Sect.
Originally, Taoist Duobao was worried that he would be killed by Buddhist saints when he was reincarnated, but since Medicine Buddha is a hostage, there is no problem.
Medicine Buddha is his direct disciple and he is a quasi-sage. This time he descends to earth and may be blessed by the human race and soar into the sky. Even if he fails, Buddhism is seeking the position of the Qinghua Emperor of the East Pole for him, which has the same meaning for Buddhism.
It is so important that it cannot be destroyed.
"Don't worry, as long as you successfully establish Mahayana Buddhism and a lot of Buddhism's luck gathers, if they try to kill you again, they will kill eight hundred enemies and lose one thousand to themselves. They will only win over you."
Lao Tzu naturally has a plan for all situations. Let Duobao Taoist split Buddhism, it is best to become the current Chan Jie, so that it will not be a threat.
Even if such an ideal situation is not achieved, if Duobao is killed, Buddhism will suffer heavy losses. If Duobao is won over, it will be difficult for Mahayana and Hinayana to be united, and internal fighting will definitely be inevitable, which will also weaken the power of Buddhism invisibly.
I waved my sleeves, and Duobao Taoist flew into the human world, landed behind Lao Dan, and walked together outside Hangu Pass. Guan Ling Yin Xi watched the sky at night and saw the purple air coming thirty thousand miles from the east. He knew that the saint was coming, and he would arrive early.
Just waiting by the side.
Lao Dan took out a diamond bracelet and turned it into a deep tunnel. Taoist Duobao was sucked into it, and his physical body and spirit suddenly changed, turned into a relic, and disappeared.
When Lao Dan was about to leave, Yin Xi knelt down to ask for help. Lao Dan smiled incomprehensibly, and immediately accepted him as his disciple, established a Taoist school in Hanguguan, taught the Tao Te Ching, and gave Yin Xi the name of Wen Shizhen Taoism. After that, he built a building
Guan Tao once influenced the rise and fall of dynasties.
Lao Dan collected the merits of the heavenly general with a diamond bracelet and a handwritten copy of the Tao Te Ching. He created two spiritual treasures of merit and virtue. He left on a bull. Soon after, in a small village, he found a young man with big ears who was planting some plants.
.
Lao Dan could tell at a glance that these were medicinal herbs for treating diseases, so he gave some random advice. He was amazed by the young man and immediately asked for advice. Lao Dan stayed here naturally and got along with the young man day and night.
Just when Laozi was bringing many treasures to transform into a Buddha, Confucius returned to his former residence in Lu after completing his travels around the world.
Although he has been active in these years, his political ideas have never been upheld. He was even driven out in the Song Dynasty, and was besieged by the army in the Chen and Cai countries, making him very embarrassed.
Confucius saw that the world was in turmoil and the people were in chaos. He was very angry at the vassal states that had caused all this since the Spring and Autumn Period. He decided to write a history book to record important events, speak in small words about great righteousness, warn future generations, and make rebellious ministers and traitors fearful.
After several years, the history book was completed and named Spring and Autumn Period. Confucius put pen to paper and stopped writing.
At this time, he had completed many Confucian classics and established his cultural system. So he led 3,000 disciples, including 72 sages, to establish Confucianism in Qufu.
