Mysterious Taoism: Why can we win from thousands of miles away? (picture

) Zhuge Changqing believes that Taoist secret techniques have two core foundations: one is Taoism, and the other is virtue. ----- Zhuge Changqing The Taoist "Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Jing" says: The way to observe the sky, the way to observe the sky, and the way to hold the sky are complete. How to observe the sky? What is the way of heaven? How to stabilize the country? This is the essence of Taoism. Taoism is an important part of Chinese traditional culture. In particular, Taoism's in-depth research on Anbang and Dingguo, Zhouyi Bagua, astrological changes, Qimen Dunjia, Feng Shui magic, magic spells, etc., makes Taoism always have a mysterious feeling. Taoism is an inherent religion in China. It is closely connected with the local Chinese culture, deeply rooted in the fertile soil of China, has distinctive Chinese characteristics, and has had a profound impact on all aspects of Chinese culture. Zhuge Changqing believes that, Taoism originated from our human ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa. They have infinite magic power and profound Taoism. In order to protect the Chinese nation, our ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa left a Taoist lineage and taught it to many primitive tribes. With the development of society, as Taoist deities such as Yuanshi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, and Jiutian Xuannv continued to incarnate and come to the world to teach Taoism and Taoism, Taoism gradually improved and became the connotation of Taoism today. In the Han Dynasty, through the summary and dissemination of Zhang Daoling (Wudou Mi Tao, Tianshi Tao), Taoism officially formed a large-scale development. In particular, the popularization of traditional cultural books such as "Journey to the West", "Feng Shen Bang", "Water Margin", "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", "Generals of the Yang Family", "Xue Rengui's Eastern Expedition", etc. Spells, magic, and other spells quickly became popular among the people. Taoist masters who are proficient in Qi Men Dun Jia, Zhou Yi and Five Elements, and Taoist magic have become the secret power of China's development. Today, all ethnic minorities have profound Taoists. Since Taoism originated from our true ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa, its application in life is very targeted. In Zhuge Changqing's study of Chinese studies, he discovered that there were Taoist masters assisting him in all dynasties. Zhuge Changqing studied Chinese traditional culture and believed that the meritorious founding emperors of the past dynasties would be surrounded by magical and unpredictable masters. These masters are mysterious and unpredictable. They respond to the way of heaven, know people's affairs, and calm the hearts of the people. They are proficient in the secret arts of stabilizing the country, Zhouyi Bagua, star changes, Qimen Dunjia, Fengshui magic, magic spells and other secret arts. The founding emperors of the past dynasties, with the assistance of Taoist masters, strategized and won thousands of miles away, quickly conquered the world and settled the country: Zhuge Changqing, please think about it and see if it is consistent with this principle? King Wen of the Zhou Dynasty was assisted by the Taoist master Jiang Taigong and opened up the Zhou Dynasty; Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty was assisted by the Taoist master Zhang Liang and achieved a leap from the countryside to the world; Liu Bei of the Shu Kingdom was assisted by the Taoist master Zhuge Liang. Achieved a leap from living without a fixed place to an emperor; Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty was assisted by Wei Zheng, Xu Maogong and other masters, and achieved unification of the world; Zhao Kuangyin in the Song Dynasty was assisted by Taoist master Chen Tuan, and opened up the world of the Song Dynasty; Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty was assisted by Taoist masters such as Chen Tuan With the assistance of Liu Bowen, he achieved a qualitative leap... So why do Taoist masters such as Jiang Taigong have such mysterious powers? Why can it assist the founding emperors of the past dynasties: strategizing and winning thousands of miles away? Zhuge Changqing believes that the secrets of Taoism have two core foundations: one is Taoism, and the other is virtue. What is Taoism? Zhuge Changqing believes that Taoism in actual combat includes Zhouyi Bagua, Qimen Dunjia, magic spells, mobilizing Yin soldiers, mountain doctor fortune telling, etc. Masters of all ages have looked up at the universe and looked down at the geography. With a raise of their hands, they can grasp the universe in one palm. Jiang Taigong and other masters are proficient in this sect, so they should go out to assist the Zhou Dynasty in ruling the world. "Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Jing" says: ...The way of nature is quiet, so all things in heaven and earth come into being. The way of heaven and earth is immersed, so yin and yang prevail. Yin and Yang push each other and change smoothly. Therefore, the sage knows that the way of nature cannot be violated, so he controls the way of ultimate tranquility. The law and calendar cannot make a contract. Love has a strange weapon, it is the birth of all things, the Eight Diagrams Jiazi, the magic machine and the ghost are hidden. The art of overcoming yin and yang is as obvious as that of elephants. Zhuge Changqing believes that the magic of Taoism lies in integrating oneself with the universe. With the blessing of Taoist gods, he can meditate and suddenly understand the mysteries of the universe, absorb the energy of the universe, and cultivate himself with huge magic power. Then he strategizes and wins thousands of miles away. become a reality. Internally, one can cultivate one's moral character and become a god and become an immortal; externally, one can harmonize one's family, govern the country and bring peace to the world. Jiang Taigong, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen and others practiced with great concentration, and their Taoism and Taoism were profound, so they did not leave the mountain. Once they came out, the society was shaken and the world was established.

What is virtue? Zhuge Changqing believes that virtue includes having the world in mind, doing good deeds to accumulate virtue, rescuing the people, assisting the country, and promoting the healthy development of the Chinese nation. Because you wholeheartedly design and consider all the people in the world, your merits and blessings are great. Therefore, God loves you and the benevolent gods of heaven and earth protect you, and you can accomplish great things. For example, Jiang Taigong became prime minister at the age of 80 and assisted the Zhou Dynasty in 808. "Yellow Emperor's Yin Fu Jing" says: ...He is born to be killed by God, which is the principle of Tao. Heaven and earth are the thief of all things; all things are the thief of man; man is the thief of all things. The three thieves are both suitable and the three talents are safe. Therefore, it is said: If you eat it at the right time, everything will be cured; if you use its mechanism, everything will be in peace. People know that their gods are gods, but they don’t know the reason why they are not gods. The sun and the moon are numbered, the size is determined, the divine power is generated, and the gods are revealed. No one in the world can see or know how to steal a machine. A gentleman will have a firm bow, while a villain will have a light life. Zhuge Changqing believes that only by "the combination of Taoism and virtue and merit" can we truly strategize, win decisively from thousands of miles away, and promote historical development. If you have strong magic skills, you can make great achievements; if you have profound virtues, you can travel the world. If you want to understand Taoism, Zhuge Changqing believes that you only need to know these two items. If you want to learn Taoism, it is recommended to start with De Gong. With virtue and merit as the foundation, learning magic will make incredible strides. As for the core content of Taoism, which is doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, I will tell you a little more here. Doing good and accumulating virtue is very powerful. For example, if you want to become a god. There are two methods: one is to achieve it through cultivation, and the other is to achieve it by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. Taishang Laojun pointed out in "Taishang Inspiration Chapter": "Those who desire heavenly immortals should do one thousand three hundred good deeds. Those who desire earthly immortals should do three hundred good deeds." The meaning is: If you want to become an immortal after death, you should accumulate 1,300 good deeds. If you do one good deed a day, you will be successful in four years; if you want to become an earthly immortal after death, you should accumulate 300 good deeds. , if you do one good deed every day, you can succeed in just one year. People who become immortals by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue include the Taoist Eight Immortals Tieguai Li (Li Xuan/Li Hongliu), Han Zhongli (Zhongli Quan), Zhang Guolao, Lan Caihe, He Xiangu (He Xiaoyun), Lu Dongbin (Lv Yan), Han Xiangzi and Cao Guojiu (Cao Jingxiu) are our role models. Therefore, Teacher Zhuge Changqing always tells those who are destined to do good deeds and accumulate virtue that it is very important. As long as you conscientiously do the "five-in-one" good deeds of Master Zhuge Changqing (releasing animals, giving food, etc.) and continue for a few years, you can at least become gods such as the land god, mountain god, water god, and city god in the future. Taishang Laojun’s words are true. Let’s look at the emperors of the past dynasties. Because their starting point was to benefit the people of the world, they all had the intention to benefit the people of the world, so they had great virtues. Because these emperors have great merits, Taoist masters will follow the way of heaven and come out to help. "Huangdi Yinfu Jing" says: The way of observing the sky, the way of observing the sky, and the way of holding the sky are complete. Therefore, there are five thieves in heaven, and those who see them will prosper. The five thieves care about the heart and implement it in heaven. The universe depends on the hand, and all transformations occur on the body. Nature is a person; human heart is a machine. The way of establishing heaven is used to determine people. The sky sends murderous intentions, and the stars change their places; the earth sends murderous intentions, and dragons and snakes rise from the ground; humans send murderous intentions, and heaven and earth turn over and over again; the combination of heaven and man makes all changes possible. Nature is clever and can be hidden. The evil of the nine orifices depends on the three essentials, which can cause movement and stillness. If fire is born in wood, disaster will be overcome; if treachery is born in the country, it will collapse in time. Those who know how to practice are called saints.

They have great influence among the people: "Tai Shang Ying Pian", "Wenchang Emperor Jun Yin Zhi Wen" and "Guandi Awakening of the World Sutra" 4. Dao Zang Dao Zang is The collection of Taoist scriptures is a large-scale Taoist series that compiles many classics according to a certain compilation intention, collection scope and organizational structure. It was compiled in the early Tang Dynasty and has a history of nearly 1,300 years. The existing "Tao Zang" was compiled by the 43rd generation Zhang Tianshi Zhang Yuchu and his younger brother Zhang Yuqing under the imperial edict. In the ninth year of the Zhengtong reign of Yingzong, he ordered Tongmiao Zhenren Shao to correct and supplement it. In the tenth year of the Zhengtong year, the publication was completed, totaling 5,305 volumes.

Later generations called the book "Orthodox Taoist Canon" with the publication year. In the thirty-fifth year of Wanli reign of Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Guoxiang, the fiftieth generation of heavenly master, was ordered to compile the "Extended Taoist Canon".

Various classics in "Tao Zang" are arranged according to the classification method of "three caves, four supplements and twelve categories". Since 1996, Taoist Master Zhang Jiyu, vice president of the China Taoist Association, has presided over the compilation of "Chinese Taoist Canon". It is based on the main and continued "Taoist Canon" of the Ming Dynasty and maintains the basic framework of three caves and four auxiliaries. The scriptures other than the three caves and four supplements are classified according to different contents. They are divided into seven major categories. The scriptures collected in each category are arranged in order according to the origin and era of Taoism. After gathering a lot of manpower and material resources, after several years, it was finally officially published in 2004. 5. History of Taoism 1. The ideological origin of Taoism Taoism is a religion native to China and was formed after a long period of historical development. The worship of nature and ghosts and gods can be traced back to the primitive period. From the earliest divination and other methods of communication between humans and gods, primitive religion gradually evolved into the worship of heaven and ancestors during the Yin and Zhou Dynasties. Zhuge Changqing believes that Taoism originated from our human ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa. They had infinite magic power and profound Taoism. In order to protect the Chinese nation, our ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa left a line of Taoism and taught it to many primitive tribes. . With the development of society, as Taoist deities such as Yuanshi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, and Jiutian Xuannv continued to incarnate and come to the world to teach Taoism and Taoism, Taoism gradually improved and became the connotation of Taoism today. In the Han Dynasty, through the summary and dissemination of Zhang Daoling (Wudou Mi Tao, Tianshi Tao), Taoism officially formed a large-scale development. Today, all ethnic minorities have profound Taoists. In particular, the popularization of traditional cultural books such as "Journey to the West", "Feng Shen Bang", "Water Margin", "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", "Generals of the Yang Family", "Xue Rengui's Eastern Expedition", etc. Spells, magic and other magics quickly became popular among the people. By the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, ancient religions had undergone significant rationalization and differentiation from social and cultural knowledge. Among the hundreds of schools of thought, Taoism, Confucianism, and Mohism were the most prominent. At that time, the Yin-Yang School and the Immortal School emerged, which had a profound influence on history. In the Han Dynasty, due to wars and the collapse of the Han Dynasty, society had an urgent need for religion. As a result, Confucianism gradually became religious, and Buddhism was also introduced at this time. Under this social background, the comprehensive traditional worship of ghosts and gods, thoughts of gods, and yin and yang magic finally gradually merged with the trend of thought advocated by Huang Lao in the Han Dynasty; the Taoist sect was also formed at this time. The history of Taoism is generally divided into four periods: the origin period of the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, the prosperity of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the emergence of Quanzhen religion during the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and its decline after the Qing Dynasty. 2. The origin period of Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties The formation of Taoism was a slow development process. As two landmark events in the final formation of Taoism: one is the spread of the Taiping Jing, and the other is Zhang Daoling's Five Pecks of Rice Dao (Tianshi Dao). During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty (126-144), the "Taiping Qingling Book" (the "Taiping Jing") was passed down by Yu Ji (some say Qian Ji) and Gong Chong. It is believed to have been passed down by Gan Zhongke, a native of Qi during the reign of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty. The edited "Bao Yuan Taiping Jing") was widely disseminated. By the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiao was preaching according to the "Book of Taiping Qingling", which was called Taiping Dao. He claimed to be a great sage and a good teacher. His followers were spread all over the world and he was already quite influential. Later, the Yellow Turban Uprising failed and Taiping Road declined day by day. Also during the time of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling studied Taoism at Heming Mountain in Shu County and recruited disciples to preach. Those who believed in the Taoism gave five buckets of rice, so it was called the Five Bucks of Rice Road (some studies also say that it was because of his belief in the Big Dipper and the Southern Dipper and other five-dipper stars, which combined with Shu's belief in the Big Dipper and the Southern Dipper. The Di Mi sect was combined, so it was called the Wu Dou Mi sect, and later it was mistakenly called the Wu Dou Mi sect). His son Zhang Heng and his grandson Zhang Lubao had occupied Hanzhong for many years, and later cooperated with the highest ruling authorities, causing the influence of the Five Pecks of Rice Road to spread throughout the country from the southwest corner, and then developed into the authentic Taoist Tianshi Tao. During the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, with the popularity of alchemy and the deepening of related theories, Taoism achieved great development. At the same time, Taoism also absorbed the popular metaphysics at that time and enriched its own theories. In the first year of Jianwu in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong systematically discussed the theories of immortals since the Warring States Period and wrote "Baopuzi", which was the first systematization of Taoist theory and enriched the ideological content of Taoism. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Kou Qianzhi established the "Northern Master's Way" with the support of Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Lu Xiujing established the "Southern Heavenly Master's Way".

3. The prosperity of the Tang and Song Dynasties. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, Li Yuan, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, recognized Laozi Li Er as his ancestor. Zhenzong and Huizong of the Song Dynasty also believed in Taoism. Huizong of the Song Dynasty even called himself the "Emperor Taoist Master". Taoism was therefore highly respected and became a religion. State religion. At this time, sects such as Maoshan and Gezao appeared, and Tianshi Tao also re-emerged. The Taoist alchemy school has been hidden since the Han and Jin Dynasties. Due to the vigorous advocacy of Zhongli, Lu Dongbin and others in the Han Dynasty, the study of inner alchemy began to appear in the world. In terms of theory, the inner alchemy theory expounded by Chen Tuan, Zhang Boduan and others is extremely popular. During this stage, Taoism not only developed within China, but also spread to other parts of Asia through migration and cultural exchanges. For example, at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, after Wu Dou Mi Dao failed to launch an uprising in southern China, Lu Xun led his troops to flee to Vietnam (Jiaozhou). Vietnamese Li Tuo helped Lu Xun attack Jiaozhou Fucheng, but committed suicide after failure. This is the earliest record of Taoism being introduced into Vietnam. In the Taoism of the Song Dynasty, the title of the Celestial Master lineage of Longhu Mountain in Xinzhou began in the ninth year of Dazhong Xiangfu (1016) of Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, when Zhang Zhengsui was granted the title of Mr. Zhenjing. According to "History of the Song Dynasty." "The Benji of Renzong" records: In the fifth month of Jiayin in the eighth year of Tiansheng (1030), Mr. Chengsu was given the title of Zhang Qianyao of Longhu Mountain in Xinzhou. By the time of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, although he favored the Taoist scholar Lin Lingsu, he only gave general gifts to the lineage of the Celestial Masters. 4. The emergence of Quanzhen Taoism during the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. In the Taoism of the late Song Dynasty and the early Yuan Dynasty, Quanzhen Taoism founded by Wang Chongyang appeared in the north. Later, Qiu Chuji, a disciple of Wang Chongyang, preached to Genghis Khan of Mongolia, asking him not to kill innocent people indiscriminately. He was trusted by Genghis Khan, and was granted the power to take charge of Taoism in the world by the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty. At the same time, in response to the rapid rise of Quanzhen Taoism, the original Longhushan Tianshi Taoism, the Maoshan Qing sect, and the Gezaoshan Lingbao sect merged into the Zhengyi sect, with Zhang Tianshi as the leader of the Zhengyi sect, thus formally forming the Taoist Beiyou sect. There are two major factions: Quanzhen Sect and Nanyou Zhengyi Sect. During the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di claimed to be the incarnation of Emperor Zhenwu, and strongly supported Zhang Sanfeng and his Wudang sect who worshiped Zhenwu. At this time, Taoism still occupied a dominant position among various religions in China.
