Taiping road taipingjing

The publication of Taiping Jing marked the initial formation of Huang's basic teachings and had an important influence on the establishment of primitive Taoism in Han Dynasty. Taiping Road is a branch of early Huangdao Road. Its theoretical basis comes directly from Taiping Jing, and Zhang Jiao is the founder of Taiping Dao.

The story of Taiping Youth is generally regarded as the Taiping Jing in the Taoist collection. It was born out of the Taiping Jing written by Gan Zhongke, a Qi man in the Western Han Dynasty. According to Li Han Xunzhuan, Gan Zhongke forged twelve volumes of Tianguan Yuan Taiping Jing and taught it to Xia, Zhou and others. However, due to Liu Xiang's opposition, he was called a "false ghost", so Zhong Ke died in prison. When Mourning the Emperor, this book was all the rage because of Li Xun's sponsorship. Later, Xia and others were finally accused of left-wing chaos, and Li Xun was also convicted of a felony. This book has become a banned book and has been circulated in folk secrets for a long time. As the length of the book is getting longer and longer, it has become a masterpiece of 170 volumes by Gong Chong.

Regarding the content of Taiping Jing, Xiang Kai Zhuan said simply: "Committed to serving the world, following the five elements, and the art of rejuvenating the country and spreading it to future generations." And he said, "Witches are full of miscellaneous words." This is similar to the Taiping Jing left in today's Taoist collection, and it is not revolutionary. However, the biography of Li Xun before the Han Dynasty quoted Gan Zhongke's Taiping Jing of Tianguan Baoliyuan. "It is said that when the Han family reached the end of heaven and earth, it should be God's will, and the Emperor of Heaven told Chi Jing to teach me so." Such words can't be found in today's incomplete edition of Taiping Jing, but the slogan of "Heaven dies, and the yellow day stands" advocated by Zhang Jiao and others during the Yellow Scarf Uprising may not have no source, but may be influenced by Gan Zhongke's prediction.

Since the defeat of the Yellow Scarf Army, the great momentum of Taiping Road in the Central Plains has also been hit and restored. More than ten years later, the earliest people who taught Taiping Ching Ling Shu appeared in Wu (Wuxian County, Jiangsu Province) and Hui (Huiji County, Zhejiang Province). It was cured with water, which attracted many disciples and won the trust of Sun Ce soldiers, thus touching Sun Ce's anger and being killed. Taiping Road later had no chance of revival.

He first appeared in front of the peasant masses. He was a great and virtuous teacher who was good at Taoism. Around the Jianning period of Lingdi in the Eastern Han Dynasty (A.D. 168- 17 1), Zhang Jiao began his missionary activities. He used magic to cure diseases, was widely active in society, gained a large number of disciples, developed his own strength and expanded his influence.

After more than ten years' efforts, Taipingdao, founded by Zhang Jiao, has developed into a Huanglaodao organization with hundreds of thousands of followers, covering Qing, Xu, You, Jing, Yang, Yan, Ji and Yu, connecting counties and countries.

The history books recorded Zhang Jiao's missionary ways. The Biography of the Later Han Dynasty Huangfusong said: At the beginning, Julu called himself' Teacher Dade', served Huang, accepted disciples, and bowed down for the first time, saying that he used water spells to cure diseases. The patient has recovered quite well, and the people are convinced of it. Jiao sent eight disciples to all directions to transform the world with goodness and turn it into confusion. Over the past ten years, hundreds of thousands of disciples have connected people from Ziqing, Xuyou, Youyou, Hebei, Jingyang, Yanzhou and Henan counties. Then set 36 squares. General Fang, you are also. There are more than ten thousand generous ones and six or seven thousand small ones, all of which are handsome. The Biography of the Three Kingdoms of Zhang Lu also quoted the Canon as saying: Light and harmony have an opening angle in the east, and the angle of … is Taiping Road. ..... Taiping Road, with nine branches, is a blessing, making people kowtow and think, because they drink it with water. If you get sick, or get over it, you will know that this person is a channel; If it doesn't heal, it means that this person doesn't believe this channel. It can be seen from these records that Zhang Jiao's missionary activities mainly used water and spells to treat diseases. At the same time, he also recruited disciples and sent eight disciples to all directions, making Taoism a world. In addition, Zhang Jiao's teaching of Taoism combined the thoughts of Taiping Jing and Huang.

Since the mid-Warring States period, the concept of immortals has been popular in Chu and Yanqi areas. After the mid-Western Han Dynasty, Fang was criticized by public opinion for his inexperience in alchemy. The theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements is only thin in theory. At the same time, Huang Lao's political decline did have the connotation of mysticism attached to and exerted by the party. As a result, Huang Lao's study and immortal art gradually combined. "The Biography of Jiao Shen in the Later Han Dynasty" notes: "Jiao Shen is a native of Zhong You, and also helps Maoling people. I am young and kind, and I am hiding in the valley. Because the cave is a room, I am eager for the guidance of Song and Joe. " Wu Cang, his friend, was dissatisfied with Jiao Shen's view of Huang Lao as a fairy road, and pointed out that "it is also reasonable to cover up Huang Lao's words, take advantage of his weakness, hide far away, support the country and the people, and apply them to politics." If mountain climbing is extinct, people can't see it without the witness of God. What do I want from Mr. Wang? "JiaoShen ignore," more than seventy years old, race is not willing to marry. Then I came home suddenly and said I died that day, and I died. Later generations were cautious about Dunhuang, so there were differences in previous lives, or immortals. "This legend about jiao Shen's cultivation of immortality clearly points out that the situation has the color of guidance and longevity.

The Book of the Later Han Dynasty Xiang Kai Zhuan mentioned in the Book of Xiang Kai Huan Di that "or I said I was a barbarian and became a Hu". People regard Laozi as the great power that embodies and dominates nature, the ever-changing savior of monasticism, and worship him as the founder.

Huang Lao's sacrifice first appeared in Chu State where Huang Lao's learning prevailed during the Han Ming Emperor's period in the East. Chu Wangying, a book in the later Han Dynasty, recorded that Chu Wangying "liked Huang Lao more in the evening festival and learned to fast and sacrifice for the pagoda", and then he should make a letter to make amends. On the day when Ming Di sent the letter of encouragement, he said, "The King of Chu recited the whispers of Huang Lao, and he still visited the Temple of Mercy in the tower. In March, Zhai Jie swore to God, so don't doubt it, but feel sorry. " Justin's Book of the Later Han Dynasty (Volume 10) also called Liu Ying, the king of Chu, "having fun with Huang Lao in the evening and building a pagoda temple". Worship Huang Lao's idol and compare Huang Lao with stupa have revealed Huang Lao's religious flavor. Chu Ying Wang Jianwu was king in fifteen years and became king in twenty-eight years. "When I was young, I was a good ranger and a guest." Believing in Huang Lao in his later years is a personal belief, but it is not unrelated to his influence by local thoughts. Chu Wangying took charge of eight cities, such as Pengcheng (now Xuzhou), and later took care of its interests for Ming Di. Changyang County is located in the north and south of Huaihe River, where the capital of Chu moved eastward at the end of the Warring States Period. The Biography of Xiao Ming, Eight Kings in the Later Han Dynasty has Chen's feelings and Chen Chong's "* * * offering sacrifices to Huang Laojun and seeking eternal happiness". Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty was a "good fairy" and paid special attention to the worship of Laozi. "The History of the Later Han Dynasty Xiang Kaizhuan" contains: "Wengong is the temple of the Yellow Tower. This road is clear, you have nothing to do. You are good at killing and killing, and you want to be extravagant. " "Biography of Wang Huan" contains: "In China, Emperor Huan dealt with the old road of Huang and destroyed the temples." "Ji of Emperor Huan" also records that in the first month of the eighth year (165), Emperor Huan served Zuoxian in the county and worshipped Laozi. In November of the same year, he also "made Zhong Chang serve the tyrant in a bitter county and worship Lao Tzu"; In the second year, "near the ancestral hall, always in the Dragon Palace". From the universal belief in Huang Lao's whispers to the worship of Huang Lao's idols, this is almost a religion.

Early Taoism directly inherited the tradition of Taoism and worship of Huang Lao in Han Dynasty. Wudou Rice Knife and Taiping Knife founded at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty were both developed from Huang. "The Biography of the Later Han Dynasty Huangfusong" contains: "At the beginning, Julu claimed to be a great teacher and served Huang." "The Story of Building a Mausoleum with Zitongzhi" has been published for six years: "Julu Zhang Jiao took Huang Lao and taught him witchcraft, which is called Taiping Road." "The Biography of Liu Tao in the Later Han Dynasty" said: "The giant deer opens its horns and pretends to hold the avenue, and the demon confuses the king." Religiously speaking, the "avenue" entrusted and respected by Taiping Road is the god of "ruling Kunlun forever", that is, the deified Laozi. Taiping Road may be just a heretical group of Huang at first. Zhang Ling, a native of Pei Guofeng (now Fengxian County, Jiangsu Province), was originally a student of Artest. He began to study Taoism in four years (125), and later went to Shu. According to "The Family of Han Shi Tian" written by Zhang Ming Normal University, in the first year of Han 'an (142), Shundi claimed to be appointed as Shi Tian of Hemingshan and founded Wudou Midao. Respecting Lao Zi as an old gentleman shows that Zhang Ling studied Taoism during Emperor Han 'an and was regarded as an old Taoist. The Biography of the Three Kingdoms of Shu Wei and Zhang Lu clearly points out that Wudou Midao is "similar to the yellow turban insurrectionary", and it is also said in Dianlue that Zhang Xiu, the founder of Wudou Midao, "made people commit adultery as a drink offering, and the owner of the drink offering used Laozi's five thousand words to make the capital learn". Taoism in past dynasties called Zhang Lingzhi's way "Shi Tian's way", and the text of Taiping Jing was written in the form of a question and answer between real people, immortals and Shi Tian. The word "Shi Tian" was first seen in Zhuangzi Xu Wugui. As for Xiangcheng's wilderness, the Yellow Emperor met a boy who was a horse herder, so he asked the way of "serving the world" and said that he had nothing to do but "kill horses". So "the Yellow Emperor bowed his head again and said that Shi Tian had retired".

Zhang Jiao believes in Taiping Jing, and he named the Huang Lao Dao organization he founded as Taiping Dao, which came directly from Taiping Jing. The so-called Taiping Dao means doing what it wants to do before Taiping, because Taiping Dao, its promise, its national wealth, its destiny and its treasure. Zhang Jiao claimed to be the teacher of great virtue, and also came from Taiping Jing. Volume 90: There is a thousand pounds of gold in this matter, which is a treasure of thousands of pairs. If you don't learn from the teacher, you won't learn. You can't do great things if you want to govern the country happily. Why can it be done at once? Volume 98: There are billions of stars, and I can't tell you for a day. Zhu Tianqun's words are not as good as those of the country. Zhang Jiao claimed to be a teacher of great virtue, but actually regarded himself as a prophet of Taiping Road. His purpose was to take the road of great harmony, thus teaching the world to save people and achieve world peace.

The main magic of Zhang Jiao's preaching is to teach people to kowtow and think, and to cure diseases with water. This thought of kowtowing also comes from Taiping Jing. In Zhang Jiao's view, heaven and even Tao are Tao, earth and even Germany are home, and * * * gives birth to everything, with nothing hidden and nothing private. People's mistakes are caused by violation of heaven. If you want to cure a disease, you must bow your head the first time. The way to bow down for the first time is to thank the surrounding areas on the four roads in the wilderness, kowtow to the five elements, look to the sky first, and then kowtow to the ground. ..... Xiezi Taitian. After that, everyone was like children. Heaven can see human behavior and understand human language. To bow down to heaven and earth is to ask the gods to forgive themselves and relieve their sins and pains, so people in the wilderness should be in the light; Therefore, people on the road, people on the road, take care of things; So, four people, when paying four people. Heaven makes gas, and it is also for the child to meet the sky. The four seasons are full of benevolence, and the solution is too great.

Another important spell preached by Zhang Jiao is to use the charm of water to treat diseases. Suffering from hydrotherapy is also called swallowing essence. "Taiping Jing" makes it very clear: what is the word repetition, which leads to enlightenment and thinking? ..... The essence swallows it, which is called God. ..... with Dan as the word, the above one or two lines tell people, the bath is fine, and it is strict with good wine, such as drinking clear water and thinking about its words all the time. ..... or see this word, along with the disease, the name is also fine (1). The so-called compound word is compound text and the prototype of Taoist symbols. Swallowing sperm is swallowing symbols. Taking Dan as the word, that is, writing, is a kind of figure with curved strokes, which resembles words rather than words.

The so-called amulet hydrotherapy is to burn amulets to ashes and drink them with wine or water, which is called swallowing amulets.

Swallowing a symbol means keeping it in your heart. When you think of it, the divine power of the symbol will come out, all diseases will be dispelled, and people will return to a healthy state and be full of energy. Therefore, the Taiping Jing says: If you swallow my character today, you can learn from it and teach it a hundred times. In an instant, it is between eight directions and six rivers, and the spirit will be healed. (2) This is the charm of Zhang Jiao's hydrotherapy mantra, and it is also a wish, that is, the word of God. It has infinite power. You can cure diseases if you read it.

Taiping Jing (Volume 50) and Blessing by God (Article 75) call the mantra "Blessing by God": There are always sacred words in the sky. Now when people are taught to speak, God officials respond to their anger and the people get it, which is called "Blessing by God".

I wish you all the best, all the best, all the best and all the best. Its wish can make the gods get rid of diseases, and they all gather in ten places, and those who use what they want will not heal. But the more disgusted you are with words, the more prescient you are. He also said: this man, who is also a god in heaven, was originally called God. If the name of the photo is leaked, Taoist priests can pass it on and pass it on to each other, so they can cure diseases, such as pedestrians, but they can't cure diseases. The History of the Later Han Dynasty quoted this passage from Taiping Jing: There are always holy words in the sky. Nowadays, people are endowed with words and used as officials. They should communicate with each other and respond to their anger. It is also called the magic spell. Mantra is 100% 100% 10% 10%, and its mantras can help God eliminate disasters and diseases and be used in all directions. Zhang Jiao's spell therapy is to recite the spell to the patient. The Book of Mantras, known as the Book of Wishing and Predicting, is the main word of God and has supreme magic. If you say a spell, all diseases can be eliminated.

Zhang Jiao preached that the teacher held up nine sticks as a symbol of blessing. Nine staff, meaning scepter, also comes from Taiping Jing. The forty-second volume of Taiping Jing says: the heavenly heart can be ruled, so that the nine gases can be in harmony and the nine people can be in peace, so it can be peaceful for the emperor. The so-called nine people, that is, their invisible gods, are responsible for their vitality; The great god is in charge of heaven; Real people are in the right place; The post of immortal is in the four seasons; Avenue people are in charge of the five elements; The duty of a saint is to manage yin and yang; Sages manage documents and teach them; Everyone is in charge of vegetation and food; The handmaiden's job is to manage the goods. Volume 71 of Taiping Jing says: The Tao has nine degrees. ..... One is lack of vitality, the other is nothingness, three figures can be seen separately, four are wandering out and returning to the opposite side, five are road gods similar to the four seasons and five elements, six are stabbing blessings, seven are seeking social benefits, eight are external gods, and nine are family first.

There are nine songs, nine songs, nine songs and eighty-one songs in one thing. If we use different methods, then * * * is a big root. God made ... people who are three years old, nine years old and twenty-seven years old can live in the world; Its central 3927 can be a true god collector; Next, there are many ways. In other words, the nine-section stick is similar to a scepter, which can not only recruit gods, but also disintegrate ghosts. Holding a staff can manage the affairs of nine people and nine spirits, and can manage everything in the world; You can learn from others.

Serve Huang, and in the process of missionary work, create the world together with Huang. Huang became a tool to publicize the people and organize Taoist priests. At that time, many people in the ruling and opposition parties in the Eastern Han Dynasty believed in Huang, and many rulers also believed that he was a good Taoist priest. Even people in the eight states of Qing, Fu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan and Yu had to agree, or abandoned their property and moved. After more than ten years of missionary work, the number of believers in Zhang Jiao has increased to several hundred thousand.

Taiping Road founded by Zhang Jiao worships Huang Lao and Huang Zhong Taiyi. Taiyi is also Taiyi. According to historical records, Beichen is a star in Wei Zi Palace, and Taiyi has been living there. Zhang Shoujie's "Justice" said: Taiyi is also an alias of the Emperor of Heaven. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, Taiyi was regarded as the Arctic emperor or the Emperor of Heaven in Wei Zi Palace, and was the highest god who dominated the center of heaven. The book "Historical Records" and "Zen" said: God is too expensive, and the first one is the Five Emperors. In the Han Dynasty, Taiyi was regarded as a better fairy than Huangdi, the Beidou god. Wang Han Mangzhuan quoted Zigetu: Taiyi and Huangdi were immortals. In the book "Spring and Autumn Annals and Sincerity Map" in the west, there is also a saying that the Yellow Emperor asked Taiyi how to live forever. There is also a belief in Taiyi in Taiping Jing, and there is a concept that Taiyi is located in the center. "Taiping Jing" said: However, the reason why the way of heaven and earth can last for a long time lies in the ceaseless rest. ..... from the day is too one, the pole is also, from the operator, Saturday is eight miles away, infinite time is also. (1) The word "Huang Zhong" in Taiping Road before Taiyi is related to the theory of the end of five virtues. Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor with the red symbol, calling himself Huode. The order of the five elements is wood-fire-earth-gold-water. Fire can produce soil, the soil in the five elements is in the middle, and the color is still yellow, and yellow is the color of good luck.

Taiping Road takes the earth as an auspicious place, and believes in and advocates the yellow, which means that the Taiping Road with the earth morality as the main carrier will soon replace the Eastern Han Dynasty with the fire morality as the main carrier, and establish a peaceful society in Huangtian. Zhang Jiao claimed to be the yellow sky, wrapped in a yellow scarf, and put forward the slogan that the sky is dead and the yellow sky should stand upright. This is why Huang Taiyi is a god.

In addition to preaching in his hometown of Jizhou, Zhang Jiao also sent eight disciples to preach everywhere. In a short period of more than ten years, people from eight of the twelve states in China participated in Taiping Road, with hundreds of thousands of followers. In order to facilitate the organization and management, Zhang Jiao organized Taoists all over Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan and Yu into a parish organization with the party as the unit. There are 36 political parties in the country, with more than 10,000 generous people and 67,000 small parties, and all parties have Qu Shuai in charge.

In this way, after more than ten years of missionary activities, a huge yellow organization, Taiping Road, was finally established, with hundreds of thousands of believers, covering more than two-thirds of the state capitals in the country.
