Chapter 1783 Life, God
Perhaps there are many things, like "the theory of the five virtues at the end", or "the theory of the induction between heaven and man", in fact, the creators didn''t think so much at the beginning, they just thought it could be used, so they came up with it I used it, but I didn''t expect that it would be difficult to end after using it, and even have a far-reaching impact.
It’s like having a big bearded man with a Большаячистка back then. I didn’t expect him to do so, which caused panic in the whole society. When the mustache invaded, many generals and marshals were obedient, and they didn’t even dare to do anything without the exact order of the headquarters. So much so that Mustache can easily wear three through one, killing super gods.
The new Taoism that Fei Qian and Zuo Ci are pondering now is to make up for these big holes left by the predecessors. Although it may not be able to completely make up for it, at least it will be perfected as much as possible.
This pit is called monopoly.
When monopoly occurs in an industry or a society, it is a very scary thing.
Perhaps some people think that in the market economy environment, there will be no natural monopoly, and they even think that naturally occurring monopoly enterprises are harmless...
Of course, if monopoly enterprises are obtained through public power, the monopoly class is even more terrifying, but it does not mean that the monopoly class after natural competition is kind.
No matter how innocent the whole process and methods are when the monopoly class obtains the monopoly position, even if it completely relies on the natural market to generate and rely on self-struggle to grow, but after taking the monopoly position, it must instinctively It will use all kinds of rights and cause great harm.
Especially the combination of capital and rights.
The reason why the monopoly is not easy to be disintegrated naturally is because the monopoly company has erected a series of technical patents, scale and talent barriers for itself.
The ultimate goal of capital pursuit is monopoly. Without market intervention, every industry has a natural tendency to monopolize. This is inevitable and the only way for capital development. The harm of monopoly is not at all such trivial things as raising product prices and lowering service quality after obtaining a monopoly position, but it will start to spread to the whole country and even the world after obtaining a monopoly position. They can control the government and influence the development of the whole world.
When the economic activities of the entire country are firmly controlled by a private company, this is the advanced form of a monopoly company, and it is also the ultimate dream of these monopoly companies.
In the Han Dynasty, the princes from all over the country were like enterprises in the market of Dahan. Everyone wanted to be a monopoly in this market. This was the pursuit of everyone, whether they realized it or not, they did so. .
Including Fei Qian.
If now Fei Qian said that he quit and wanted to go home to hold the child, believe it or not, there were a group of people crying and shouting, crashing to death in front of the hall? He even has the heart to replace him, and he will not give up until he kills Fei Qian?
This is interest, and this is also human nature.
Not only the princes and emperors, but also the previous Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, etc., are all like this.
These people are all spontaneously pursuing a monopoly position, and after grabbing the position, they start to control talents and build technical barriers on the one hand, and continue to suppress competitors on the other hand, and even force them to leave the market.
By controlling the land, local tyrants form monopolies, oppress and exploit farmers, and are extremely eager to expand their land scale, even across the country. Therefore, they will be sad during the harvest and inexplicably excited during the disaster year. Because the owner farmers only have When a disaster occurs, they will have to sell their own fields as a last resort.
Aristocratic families monopolize officialdom through scriptures, set up wide moats, absorb talents to form barriers, and even marry power to suppress competitors, regardless of whether the opponents are doing right or wrong.
So since the human heart and human nature are like this, is it completely unchangeable? Uncontrollable?
Not really.
The simplest four words, "killer dies".
This is the final bottom line and the basis for the normal operation of the entire human society. If someone can kill people without rules and restrictions, the entire society will eventually collapse. This is true whether it is a feudal dynasty or any other form of society.
On the basis of "killer dies", the basic social rules extended are the law.
Before Feiqian, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, these Taoists, Confucians, Legalists, etc. did not have any laws to regulate them, that is to say, they could do whatever they wanted. There are different systems in different countries, so these people don’t have to abide by anything. They can even claim that the scriptures written by others are their own. If they feel that the opponent is too strong, they can simply find a way to eliminate them physically, even if it is the opponent. If you leave the venue, you will be sent a thousand miles away...
What''s interesting is that these people also know that doing so often has no good end, but they feel that it is impossible not to do so, so they grit their teeth and do it, and even do it more sinister and cruel. This is also the case of many people in power in feudal dynasties The reason why you must firmly hold on to the authority until the moment you die.
Now, the rules that Fei Qian made for Confucianism is education.
Education without monopoly.
Students in the academy either enter the officialdom through the examination room or through the enlightenment envoy. The only position that can be held without an exam, but with the scriptures and no other abilities, is the doctor of the academy.
In addition to the Great Theory of Qinglong Temple, through Sima Hui Zhengxuan and others, he put forward the theory of "seeking truth and truth", once again standardizing the specific scope of Confucian scriptures, the rules of citation and extension, and at the same time distributing free scriptures and teaching sentence reading methods, so that Confucianism back to basics...
Of course, with the passage of time, these rules will always undergo various changes, some may be the evolution of the times, and some may be artificially added or destroyed, but since all the people in the entire Han Dynasty are to form a joint force, then It is impossible for one side to overinflate its strength and embezzle other people''s interests unscrupulously. Therefore, setting up some necessary rules and regulations is something that Sima Hui, Zheng Xuan, and even Pang De in Jingxiang have jointly recognized.
Now, it is the turn of the Taoists.
Taoism is more interesting.
Taoism has everything, even openly declaring some methods for childbirth. It is precisely because of this reason that it can''t deal with the Buddhist school that claims to have rhythm on the surface, but in fact still secretly gives birth to children.
Since they have everything but don’t know anything, Taoism needs to do better in at least one thing, and even become a specialty of Taoism, which is the affairs of religion itself.
Sometimes Feiqian also finds it unbelievable that a local religious enterprise that has been developing freely for at least four or five hundred years can’t beat a foreign company that only had two or three big cats and kittens at the beginning. This should be said that the corporate culture of the foreign company is too perfect , or is it that the management of these local religious enterprises is too free and loose?
Could it be the alchemy and birth of children that completely ruined the reputation of Taoism?
Taoism is like a huge enterprise. As a result, there are too many investment projects, and these projects are basically operating at a loss.
So, now the people of Taoism and the mainstream of Chenwei are sitting together and working together to establish a new marketing model.
『The gods of the five directions are based on qi and based on virtue... 』Yun Yi said slowly, 『The end and beginning of the five virtues are all like this. Things are mixed, the heaven and the earth are born, Yuan Qi evolves, the five directions are gathered, and the five elements are inherent to give birth to the five emperors. This is the principle of combining yin and yang, and the way of clarifying affairs. 』
Zhong Jie and Wei Duan looked at each other, nodded involuntarily, and accepted Yun Yi''s words. Because such an explanation is logically reasonable, and it is also in line with the cognition of ordinary people in Dahan. The five elements correspond to the five emperors, and everything in the world is in the five elements, plus the changes of yin and yang, it is a relatively complete religious worldview.
There is nothing wrong with the basic disk, and the next step is to build a structure on the basic disk to change the violent "Five Virtues" version 1.01 and the buggy "Heaven and Man Induction Theory" version 4.04...
『Qi is the innate spirit, all things are born and carry it, scattered in Changye, and when Qi is exhausted, it will perish...』
Yun Yi continued to add the second article of the new Taoist rules.
This explains the problems of birth, old age, sickness and death of human beings and other creatures. Some are sick, some are not sick, some die early, and some die late. The reason is simple and straightforward.
The other three thought for a moment, then nodded in approval.
『Innate qi, each has its own definite number, but virtue complements and continues it...』
Article 3.
Religious Basis of Goodness Theory. Of course, it is inevitable that things such as "replenishment" and "blood-sucking" will evolve out of this, but generally speaking, persuading believers to do good and accumulate virtue is the most important thing for a religion to survive, otherwise it will sooner or later Something went wrong.
『Innate qi, acquired virtue... 』Qiao Bing repeated in a thoughtful murmur.
Yun Yi nodded.
Originally, Taoism also had the theory of innate nature and acquired nature, and there was also a theory of qi transformation and three cleansing, etc., but it was rather vague, and it could not be specifically standardized. There was no unified statement, and what "Tao can be Tao is very Tao" is confusing. Here, it is not conducive to the promotion of religion.
Religion must be simple and straightforward if it is to be promoted. A system that is too complex is actually not conducive to copying and pasting.
If we adopt the theory of New Taoism now, then the innate "Qi" is the different starting point of each person, and how to grow up depends on the acquired "Virtue". Such a statement can not only meet the needs of noble families, but also adapt to the spiritual desires of ordinary people.
New Taoism even has a certain effect of paralyzing stability and eliminating social class contradictions. After all, it is still a feudal society, and productivity and production technology cannot provide the soil for a new social model, so exploitation and being exploited are still the theme among the overall feudal social classes.
『Tao is the only way to seek virtue. Establishing the Tao leads to the accumulation of virtue, and the accumulation of virtue transforms the qi. This is good fortune...'' Yun Yi finally said.
This is also the final conclusion and the foundation of the existence of New Taoism. "Qi" and "virtue" are invisible and intangible things. Only the so-called "Tao" is something that can be followed and done in daily life, so all the divergent emptiness eventually falls into specific practical affairs On, "Tao".
"So..." Zhong Jie pondered, "Everyone in the world can practice Taoism?" 』
『Of course! 』Yun Yi nodded.
Qiao suddenly said: "Everyone in the world has Tao, and a country has its own virtue!" There is Qi in the five virtues, and the world can last forever! 』
This is the improvement of "Five Virtues Ending and Beginning"!
It is also a change of "Theory of Interaction between Heaven and Man"!
Whether it is the "Five Virtues" or "Heaven and Man", they are all given away at a big discount. Planting a second-rate son will become the son of the Red Emperor, and Emperor Wu of the Han will become the son of the Emperor of Heaven...
Right?
In a person''s life, perhaps many things can be decided by themselves, but who is my father, I really don''t have to decide by myself. It was decided at birth, maybe a little confused, but it was definitely not my choice.
The problem with the "five virtues" is that if the next "virtue" is determined, then no matter whether it is stealing or stealing, as long as you defeat the previous "virtue" by any means, or wait for yourself to climb up, then you will Regardless of whether it was "virtue" before, it has become the "virtue" of the present anyway, and in the future, someone will use the same method, the same method to deal with themselves...
It''s like the reincarnation of Chinese feudalism, that''s it.
The theory of "interaction between heaven and man" is even more outrageous. Seeing that the emperors after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty have become more and more useless, they may not have been affected by it. Acting as the emperor in the world, he did something wrong, God was furious, and then there was a disaster. It seems to sound good, and it can also make the emperor feel awe, but in fact, the emperor is the one who suffers from the disaster and suffers? No, even the one who took the blame was not the emperor, but San Gong.
So there is nothing to be afraid of if you make a mistake, just change to another Sangong.
When a person, an emperor, does not need to pay any price for his mistakes, will this emperor still maintain a sense of awe, and will he still run the country conscientiously?
Therefore, in the subsequent dynasty emperors, there were more jerks and fewer shrewd ones. On the one hand, the founding emperor was not so powerful in land annexation, and on the other hand, he also knew the sufferings of the people, so it was not bad at all, but basically it got worse as it went on. Many emperors were successfully raised by noble families as pigs.
Now, according to the theory of New Taoism, if a person wants to live longer and live better, he must first have good conditions, and he must have more "Qi". Contribute to society, how to gather "virtue" next, you must have "Tao" and know what you do, and most of the "Tao" that can be put on the face and recognized by the society are basically upward and positive .
In this way, from top to bottom, there is a relatively complete moral framework. As for each individual, whether this or that person can find the "Tao", and can they persist in doing something that can "morality" , until the life-changing "Qi" is personal ability and self-struggle.
To put it simply, it’s like a boy who shreds green onions. He shreds green onions when he was born. That’s "Qi". More "virtue" will eventually change one''s original "Qi" and stand on a higher position. Does it make sense?
Of course, the matter of cats and dogs is not simple, but this does not prevent the theory of New Taoism from becoming a new religious concept that brought the entire Han Dynasty. 』Growing up "Qi", is it much better than the resigned Buddhas who prevailed in feudal dynasties, white lotus green hats who can only make trouble and can''t build?
Even if we take a step back, regardless of what is said in religion, if a person works hard, strives hard, and persists in working hard, can he change his own class to some extent? At least live better?
Wei Duan asked: "So, there are also prostitutes in the land of Sanfu, can they be eradicated?" 』
Yun Yi shook his head.
New Taoism is also a non-monopoly Taoism.
『Immortal worship in the countryside is the gathering of local qi! There is a way to live, and a virtue to survive! If the Tao disappears, it will disperse, and if the virtue is dark, it will disappear! Yun Yi added, "Everything is transformed by qi, just like heaven transforms all things!" To worship is to worship the gods of the five directions! Don''t go there! 』
Only with a broad mind can there be a broad world. In the future, if you say no, maybe you can also summarize all the gods in the world into this framework. Anyway, all things are born, and Qi naturally has its own changes. It is not surprising that what kind of local gods appear.
『Wonderful! Zhong Jie praised, "So, General Hussars is determined to be a righteous man!" 』
The remaining three people responded in unison: "It should be so! 』
