Buddhism realizes the afterlife, Taoism practices this life, and Confucianism proves itself.

What Buddha realizes is nature. As far as the concept of time is concerned, it means past life, present life and afterlife, San Ji. When he realized it, he had lost the concept of time and space. He transcended time and space and knew that we mortals only had the concepts of time and space, so the Buddha used San Ji as a convenient way to educate all beings.

Before the Qin and Han Dynasties, Confucianism and Taoism were indistinguishable, and Confucius went to Luoyang to consult Laozi. Confucianism is a supplement to Taoism. (/view/2237.htm) It's just that later generations think they have learned something for their own use and make irresponsible remarks about understanding Buddhism, Laozi and Confucius' views of transcending duality and transcending treatment. After the Han and Tang Dynasties, Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism became their own. Any good thing will go bad after processing, and Marxism is the best explanation. At that time, it was in line with China's national conditions and was indeed beneficial to the development of China. Now, Marxism has developed into a powerful backing with China characteristics. Everyone has egoism, and any well-learned theory, after the egoism of those in power, mostly becomes a stupid idea. Confucianism is the best evidence. From the Ming Dynasty to the present, all the Confucianism we have learned are Zhu's annotations. So far, pedantic and rigid thoughts have ruled China for hundreds of years, so the collapse of this thought during the May 4th Movement has its inevitable reasons. But due to reflection, it is not Confucius who is wrong, but those who are self-righteous and annotate at will. But now, needless to say, it is far from Confucius' original intention. There is still a long way to go.

Buddhists pay attention to the cultivation of mind and nature, which is a superior method, so they seldom talk about external use, but the karma in the world is too heavy, and the mind is served by things, so it is difficult for the body and mind to be fully cultivated. Taoism is different. Can advance and retreat, can save the world, can cultivate one's morality and self-cultivation, in line with people's natural and social attributes. Confucianism is the exertion of Tao. Why, Confucianism pays attention to the cultivation of morality. In ancient China, Tao was Tao and virtue was virtue. The two are different. Tao is metaphysical and intangible, but it is real. His existence is embodied in material things, and Germany is one of them. Tao is the body of virtue, and virtue is the use of morality. Therefore, Confucianism is the development and continuation of Taoism, and Buddhism also says that morality is lofty. These have to go deep into the original work to understand, and it is best to look at the notes before Qin and Han Dynasties to understand the true meaning.

Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism can know past lives, this life and the afterlife. The key depends on how you practice! Practice is the key, otherwise all understanding is just theory, and there will be no change without understanding the mind.
