Neji thought that although Duran was very strong, he was very careless in dealing with students' practical problems. What does "religion have to offer"? He took the risk of becoming an enemy of the wood industry and challenged the outdated system, walking on thin ice.
The other party seemed to be playing a game.
Dulan is actually serious. After all, religion can indeed fight against blood.
Although the original religion existed to deify blood, religions have the need to develop and expand and will absorb other people.
The most famous thing is that after the death of Jesus, Saint Paul preached to non-Jews, greatly expanding the scope of religion.
There is also Buddhism to combat the caste system.
Polytheism also aims to expand the scope of blood and absorb different families together.
Therefore, bloodlines will use religion to deify themselves, such as saying that they are descendants of gods, or that they are some kind of demigod, or that they are black birds ordained by heaven. However, with the development of religion, bloodlines will also be restricted, mainly to allow newcomers to
Join, if there is no restriction on blood, why should newcomers join? If newcomers don't join and start a new circle of their own, then religion may be replaced.
For example, although the caste system is the core of Tianzhu religion, the religion also states that 'a person's behavior is Brahmin, and he is a Brahmin'. It is very similar to Confucius' monarch, minister, minister, father, father and son. I hope that everyone does not rely on blood to obtain status, but
It depends on behavior.
Similarly for caste, Buddhism also proposes the equality of all living beings.
These are all efforts made by religion, but the limitations of religion are indeed very large, and they can easily be exploited by powerful landlords. As a result, religion has developed ideas such as justification by faith, epiphany, etc., which is actually the decentralization of the right to interpret doctrine.
There are many rules in religion, usually set by landlords, such as vegetarianism, not killing, etc. In this way, they restrict ordinary people's practice and prevent ordinary people from being equal to them.
Especially for Taoist cultivation, it is completely a game played by powerful landlords. Ordinary people can only encounter adventures in novels. Generally speaking, the land of magic and wealthy couples is in the hands of powerful landlords, so they
You can make elixirs to become immortals, but ordinary people should never even think about it.
In Buddhism, after enlightenment and enlightenment, ordinary people have the opportunity to become a Buddha. Therefore, the Sixth Patriarch Huineng became the only local person who could spread the scriptures. Other scriptures were introduced to the Central Plains from outside.
Later, Confucian Taoism came up with a method of studying things and practicing principles, which believed that the world was formed by Qi according to the rules of heaven. Everyone can become a saint by studying things and practicing principles.
In the era of Wang Yangming, the study of mind was on the rise. It was no longer necessary to study things and reason. You only needed to unite knowledge and action to become a saint. You could even become a saint by helping an old lady cross the road or picking up a trash can that had fallen down on the side of the road.
The same is true for justification by faith in the West. In the past, the power of interpretation was in the hands of the priest. After justification by faith, each believer can interpret the doctrine according to his or her own understanding.
In short, religion has developed from blood, to powerful, to every believer. The god of religion has also become a symbol of absolute spirituality, an abstract absolute existence without reverse.
However, there are many shortcomings of religion, and the biggest shortcoming is one, that is, what should we do if some people don’t believe in God?
You just don’t believe it, no matter how good you say it. Then it will be difficult for religion to cooperate with these guys, because they deny the existence of God. If you cooperate with them, it will be easy for believers to be shaken.
After all, they can only participate in cooperation if they believe in God. Others can cooperate if they don’t believe in God. Isn’t this just a joke?
Religion cannot solve the problem of whether others believe or not.
The Taoist solution is the best at this point. Believe it or not, Taoism does not respect a certain god, but the Tao. What it seeks is not to spread the gospel, but to transcend the three realms and five elements. Therefore, the main thing is to practice on your own, rather than with others.
debate.
In Tianzhu religion, it is believed that all gods are the incarnations of Brahma, so no matter which god you believe in, you actually believe in Brahma, and you can even curse the gods through penance. Many Tianzhu mythological stories are routine, and one person
After practicing hard, he got God's blessing and became stronger, so he went to beat the Emperor of Heaven. Then the Emperor of Heaven had no choice but to ask God for help. God would use a trap to make this person abandon his hard work, lose his ability, and then be killed.
Or a person is practicing hard and is not blessed by God, so he curses the gods in turn. No matter how powerful the gods are, they must bear the harm of the curse until he meets the conditions to resolve the curse.
In short, a person can receive blessings or activate curses by practicing hard. The reason for this is because even gods have to accept the restrictions of Brahman. God is only one side of Brahman and is imperfect. Mortals can do the same as long as they meet the rules of Brahman.
Fight back against the gods.
The gods want to maintain their status and cannot deviate from the true Dharma of Brahman.
This also solves the problem of not believing in God. Even if you don’t believe in God, you still have to accept the restrictions of Brahman. Everything is under Brahman, even God.
Buddhism is theoretically atheistic. Buddha is not a god, but an enlightened person. However, many people worship Buddha as a god. People who do not believe in Buddha are also deeply disgusted.
Religion also takes great pains to deal with the problem of disbelief in God, but unfortunately it is not very effective. After all, if you don't believe, you don't believe. Unless you let gods come down to earth and show their spirits, you just don't believe.
"Although the shortcomings of religion are obvious, the advantages are also great. Promoting religion in Konoha Village can build power as quickly as possible. Because there are many people in Konoha Village who lack faith, and ninjas are a high-risk job, so tell the ninjas
In the world after death, it is also a good comfort for ninjas to know that they fight for gods and go to heaven after death." Duran said: "So I strongly recommend that you engage in religious activities. And religious activities are easy to do.
Become a villain.”
Neji also had to admit that there were indeed many people who lacked faith, not to mention Konoha Village, it was the same across the five major countries. However, he did not like to pretend to be gods, and religion would inevitably deceive people.
"I don't like religion, and powerful ninjas can move mountains and seas by themselves. Just like gods, there is no need to believe in gods." Ningji said: "Besides, many ninjas are demigods themselves. They really engage in religion and rely on religion to limit gods.
I don’t think it’s realistic. It’s probably God using religion to make things bigger.” He had concerns.
Dulan wanted to watch a show, but Neji wanted to put it into practice. This was related to the future of the entire Konoha Village, including his own future, so he had to be cautious.
"There is no best-of-both-worlds solution in this world. If you want to change things in a short time, you have to take strong medicine." Du Lan said: "Otherwise, according to the normal development rules, you will not be able to change the fate of the clan and branch families in a short time. As a result
A villain must be effective in a short period of time, and must be urgent and impatient. If a plan is made for a hundred years, it will not be a villain at all."
Ningji said that Du Lan was just watching the excitement and did not mind the trouble. The strong medicine was indeed effective, but the side effects were also serious. As the saying goes, the disease comes like a mountain and goes away like a string, so you have to take your time to treat the disease. You can't take heat if you are impatient.
Tofu.
"I am not a villain to begin with, and what I want to do is not a bad thing. As I said, whether you are a villain or a hero is not decided by yourself, nor by the enemy, but depends on the third party. What I have to do is to let the third party support me.
Let those third parties who are suppressed by bloodline stand on my side." Ningji is not stupid. After learning from Duran, he did not fully absorb it, but took the essence and discarded the dross, and screened Duran's suggestions.
Duran, the teacher, can no longer influence Ningji. His thoughts have matured. He is no longer fighting against the clan for himself, but for thousands of ordinary people. This requires a hundred-year plan. Although the strong medicine of religion has immediate effects
, but he does not want to benefit from it but leave trouble for the world.
By this time, Neji had already outgrown his vulgar taste.
