Reactionary Huidaomen means to explain the meaning. Please explain it in detail.
"Huidaomen" is the collective name of "Huimen" and "Daomen". Taoists chant scriptures and worship gods, creating and spreading superstitious heresies, which are extremely superstitious. The Huimen were originally named after the types of weapons. They focused on swallowing talismans, chanting incantations, practicing martial arts, and protecting their territory. After long-term development, there are hundreds of organizational names. Due to the proliferation and mixed growth of various associations, Taoism, religions and societies, multiple names, duplicate names and name changes are common. After the founding of New China, they were collectively referred to as "Huidaomen".
Huidaomen was formed in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, became active and developed in the Qing Dynasty, flourished during the Beiyang Warlord Period and the early stage of the Nanjing National Government, experienced great differentiation during the Anti-Japanese War, and tended to decline after the founding of New China.
Huidaomen is different from religion. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the feudal emperors regarded all Taoist sects as cults. During the Republic of China, some of them were labeled as religious groups, public welfare groups or charity groups. Huidaomen is a folk secret association with religious and feudal superstition colors. Its daily activities are a mixture of feudal superstition and martial arts practice. As a superstitious organization, Huidaomen pursues utilitarianism, requires "divine power" to serve people's real interests, and cares about worldly things and self-well-being. Religion, on the other hand, requires that human interests conform to "divine will" and cares about the meaning of life or the foundation of value beyond this life.
At the beginning of liberation, there were more than 300 Taoist sects in the country, with about 820,000 Taoist leaders and key members, and about 13 million Taoist disciples. Most of these sects were used by spies and became the largest reactionary organization that attempted to fight against the people's government at that time. Article 8 of the "Regulations on Punishing Counterrevolutionaries" promulgated by the Central People's Government in February 1951 stipulates that "Those who use feudal guilds to carry out counterrevolutionary activities shall be sentenced to death or life imprisonment; those who commit relatively minor offenses shall be sentenced to more than three years' imprisonment." This provision It provides a powerful legal weapon to combat reactionary guilds. Through the banning of the reactionary Taoist sect, a large number of Taoist leaders were punished by law, and thousands of Taoist disciples retreated. The huidao sect lost its reputation in society and lost its glory. All this marks the beginning of the decline of the Chinese Huidao Sect.
Chairman Mao Zedong pointed out in his comments, “With regard to the banning of Yiguandao, Shanxi’s experience is the most complete, correct, and thorough. The summary of the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee is also very good, and I forward it to you for your study. , can be imitated in all places, with a view to systematically and thoroughly banning Yiguandao and other huidao sects, and eliminating important counter-revolutionary elements among them. Just like fighting, do not fight an unprepared battle or an uncertain battle. The Shanxi Provincial Party Committee in This was achieved in the preparation and implementation of the large-scale struggle to ban Yiguandao, so the achievements are very great and worthy of study by the whole party.”
However, due to the stubbornness, mystery and deception of the reactionary Huidao sect, the Huidao sect has been criticized. The ban was not completely complete. Some reactionary leaders moved from big cities to small cities, and from small cities to rural areas, and began to restore. In August 1955, public security organs across the country made unified arrangements and acted simultaneously to resolutely ban the reactionary sects that carried out restoration activities.
After the 1960s, although the reactionary Taoism sects were not completely eradicated, overall, the number of their Taoism species was gradually decreasing, and the scale of their activities and the degree of social harm were shrinking.
The resurgence of Huidaomen in the new era
Since China entered a new era of reform and opening up, great changes have taken place from rural areas to cities. Opportunities and challenges come one after another, and the situation changes rapidly. Some people's beliefs are shaken, they lose their psychological balance and fall into panic. They turn their attention to mysterious powers. The trend of mysticism is quietly rising. Meditation on Qigong, Feng Shui, Yi Gua divination, ghost culture... gives feudal superstition an opportunity to take advantage of. , Huidaomen took the opportunity to revive.
Important features of Huidaomen activities in the new era: (1) There are frequent instances of Huidaomen activities infiltrating grassroots party and government organizations. For example, among the 20 cases of sabotage activities at Huidaomen uncovered in Henan Province in 1981, 52 members of the Communist Party of China, 28 members of the Communist Youth League, and more than 50 grassroots cadres were found to have joined the Taoist movement. (2) Asking the government to recognize it under the banner of religion. (3) Move to Hong Kong, Taiwan and even abroad, collude with hostile forces abroad, and in turn penetrate into the mainland, attempting to use legal channels to carry out illegal activities.
The central government attaches great importance to new issues arising in the new era. In 1982, the “Basic Views and Basic Policies on Religious Issues in my country’s Socialist Period” clearly stipulated that “all reactionary sects, monastics, and witches that have been banned will not be allowed to resume their activities.
Anyone who confuses the public with evil words and defrauds people of money will be strictly banned and brought to justice. "Article 300 of the "Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China" revised in 1997 stipulates that those who organize and use huidao sects, cult organizations or use superstition to commit illegal crimes shall be convicted and sentenced. Fighting against huidao sects will be a A long, arduous and complex task.
