Written by Zhang Yuchu, the official leader of Taoism in the real world

I heard that the sage taught Shinto, and the Supreme Being regarded nothingness as his sect. Zhang Yuzhu. Although there are three treasures of Taoism masters, it was Taishang who first taught Guan Lingyin the Five Thousand Words of Taoism. The so-called purpose of doing nothing and not arguing can be traced back to the beginning of the third generation of Yin Dynasty, when Guangchengzi asked the Yellow Emperor to ask questions at Kongtong and waited for him. The foundation of Tao comes from the Supreme Being. Those who cultivate themselves and cooperate with their husbands in the way of inner saints and outer kings are like the last words of Guan, Wen, Zhuang, and Li. My ancestor Tianshi established the sect in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Ge Xiangong and Xu Zuyang established the sect in the Wu and Jin Dynasties. When it comes to teaching, it has the distinction of being upright and complete; when it comes to teaching, it has the eyes of purity, spiritual treasure, and thunder. If we don’t investigate the source in order to seek the flow, we will forget the origin in order to drive away the end. …

1. The origin of Taoism originated from Taishang. Three generations ago, the Yellow Emperor asked Guangchengzi, the Supreme Being. He was born in the late Yin Dynasty and served as an official in the early Zhou Dynasty. He was the historian of Zhuxia during the reign of King Wen, and moved to the Tibetan Palace during the reign of King Wu. He wrote the Daode Shang Xia Jing, and his disciples wrote Guan, Wen, Zhuang, Lie, Kangcang, The words of Bai Ju and others are about cultivating Qi Zhiping, enriching the country and strengthening the army, and managing the world. They are mutually exclusive. ...It is called Yuanshi and Lingbao, which is the beginning of chaos. The three qi of Xuan, Yuan and Shi are transformed and born, and their essence is one. Later in the elucidation, there were the sects of the Ancestral Heavenly Master, Xu Zhenjun, Ge Xianweng, Mao Zhenjun, and various immortals. The world has been around for a long time, regardless of its origin. If the ancestor is called Zhengyi, Xu Jun is called Jingming, Xian Gong is called Lingbao, and Mao Jun is called Shangqing. These are all different names for the teachings, and their origins are all Taught from the Supreme Being. Although all Fu Lu scriptures and teachings, Zhaipin Taoism and Dharma have been handed down for a long time, each person has heard them, added, subtracted and taken away, and may be different, but the origin is the same. ......

1. Taoist Sutra. The various classics of the Three Caves of the Supreme Being were promulgated by Chrysostom, passed down from generation to generation, and interpreted by various teachers. If the Yuanshi preached the Sutras, the highest quality of saving people should be the first of all the Sutras; the Lingbao Sutras should focus on meditation and inner contemplation; when the Taishang establishes teachings, morality and daily use should be the rules. To cultivate oneself internally, the Sutra of Forty-nine Chapters of the Emperor, Donggu, Datong, Shengyao, and Qingjing are the most effective; to help the world and save one's life from the outside, the Yellow Emperor's Yinfu Sutra, Yushu, Beidou, Eliminate Disasters, The Sutras of Saving Suffering, Five Kitchens, and Shengshen, and the Confessions of Yushu, Chaotian, and Jiuyou. These are all the steps to enter the Tao and the path to cultivation. Therefore, those who follow the Tao should first worship the gods, burn incense, recite sutras and edicts, and then follow the Tao. The karma of the first place is the cause of good fortune. Therefore, the sutra says, all gods, immortals and real people have attained enlightenment through the supreme words. The immortal master said that the sutra can be used to gather the mind and be recited, so that it can be recited morning and night, eliminate demonic obstacles, and expand the path. Sincerity is the first thing in convenience. Anyone who recites it must fast physically and mentally; wash away the mind and worries, and recite it softly while preserving the spirit. Just like facing God, silence meets the soul. The thoughts are the same, the sentences are true, the tone is upright, the spirit is smooth and the energy is harmonious. If the common people have meritorious service, then the sound of jade will absorb the energy, the aura will be connected with nature, the heaven and the earth will be harmonious, the people will be transformed into good customs, blessings will be gathered and misfortunes will be eliminated, and life and death will be blessed. If you recite it verbally, your heart will be violated, your body will be fascinated, you will have no sincerity and respect, and your hands will be lazy and your hands will be too busy. Even if you recite it thousands of times a day, what will it do to yourself? How can it eliminate disasters? If you are reciting it for others, you should hold it with sincerity, so that the master of the fast can teach you and communicate with him sincerely, so that the common people will not receive the fasting offerings in vain. Pray for it and dispel your misgivings, and you will naturally feel it. For example, if you use correct language, laugh and talk harmoniously, think unfocusedly, or recite filthy words, this will not only be of no benefit to the host, but will cause harm to yourself. All of this seems to be the case, and it is highly advisable to follow the rules. …

1. Sitting in a circle and observing silence is the foundation of humanity. Gai Taishang established principles and teachings to save people, which is the way to achieve transcendence and enlightenment of life and death. If it is not the ultimate origin and understanding of life, then what is a scholar of the Tao? The Sutra says: A person who accumulates good deeds, achieves all the desires of the world, does not have delusional thoughts, is free from contamination, does not remain in existence and non-existence, and is eternally free from birth and death. This is the true person. In modern times, Zen is regarded as the sect of nature, and Quanzhen is regarded as the dual nature and life. If you cultivate and correct it, you will learn science and education. Who knows that the foundation of a scholar is not about the two matters of life and life? Although the establishment of science and education, it also focuses on the study of life and life. If you fail to cultivate yourself and benefit others, help others and save others, and fail to understand the foundation of life, Ge will be able to do everything! Moreover, since ancient times, the Supreme Being has manifested itself through successive tribulations, and all the masters who have cultivated and attained enlightenment have done so through the work of tranquility and concentration. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty, the founders of the Chongyang King, Tong Zhong and Lu Zhichuan, began to establish the Quanzhen teaching, which was based on the classics and suns. . The five ancestors are Taishang, Donghua, Zhong, Lu, and Haichanye; the seven true ancestors are Qiu, Liu, Tan, Ma, Hao, Wang, and Sunye; and below them are the descendants of Biwang, Shou, Qi, and Wan. Almost all those who are studying today are based on the practice of true skills. ...

1. Practice fasting. This is the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. Since Baoling Tianzun was taught by Yuanshi, it has been the foundation of the religion. It has the most articles and the most voluminous writing.

However, from the three masters of Tai Chi, Xu Zhenren, Xian Weng Ge Zhenren, and Zhu Yang Zheng Zhenren, Du, Ge, Lu, Ning, Xiang, and Kou are the most famous ones in the world. According to this division, there are Lin, Tian, ??Jin, and Bai divisions, and then Donghua and Nanchang are divided. Although the schools are different, their origins are the same. Therefore, the talisman-recorded mantras are not far from each other. They are the virtues of teachers from later generations, and each established a sect; ...

1. The transmission of Taoism. Qing Wei Shao was born in Yuanshi Tianzun, and Shenxiao was born in Yuqing King. Since the inheritance of Xu in the past dynasties, the Qing Dynasty has continued from the two masters of Wei Zu, Zhu, Li, Nan and Huang, and the spread is still prosperous. All the writings on talismans, sutras, fasting methods, and thunder methods were derived from Master Huang. Shenxiao descends from the Wang and Wang divisions, and then there are Zhang, Li, Bai, Sa, Pan, Yang, Tang, and Mo divisions, which are as magnificent as the last. A person who adheres to the practice of alchemy must have precepts and conduct, and take it as his duty to study and study. He must first seek Master Iwatani, a person who eats grass and wood, develops the roots of ten thousand dharma, invigorates the incense, wears only one dharma, one record, and one post, so that he can survive day and night. Refining the spirit and nourishing the qi, practicing without slacking off, being in harmony with the gods, and speaking and doing things without hesitation, there is no need to worry about the ineffectiveness of the law or failure to protect it. ... Gou Wei only strives for reputation in vain, and strives for fame and fame... What's more, he pretends to thank his master and reward his generals, and asks for wine and food, but sincerely fails to kowtow and pray, and he is deeply obedient to the teachings. He also rashly acts as a teacher to others, using his blindness to lead the blind. He has no merit internally and is obsessed with right and wrong externally. This is a profound warning. As a high-minded person, he only strives to be empty and quiet, not to have a single thought, all conditions are silent, his nature is the way of heaven, his heart is thunderous, he does not fall into the nest of all conditions, and he only pursues the true sect that is upward, this is the best person. ……

1. Abbot leader. Any famous mountain blessed land, Jinglu governance, jungle palaces, abbots, either going back and forth from A to B, or being recommended by the mountain, will surely be virtuous in their senior years, upright and upright people, dignified in words and deeds, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, enough to be the leader of the jungle. Those who follow the example of teachers and blessed places will do it. Those who follow the rules and punishments of common people will advance backward, and those who practice standards will advance. Those who live here must be kind, frugal, virtuous, and be just. First of all, I will open a way to guide the stupid beasts; secondly, I will burn the post of cultivator, so as to pray for blessings and eliminate confusion. There is nothing more important than repaying the blessings of a wealthy country. There is nothing more important than respecting the scriptures and explaining the teachings than sincerity. The way to build up a crowd is to strictly enforce rules and warnings about the consequences of sin, blessing, and karma. The field and grain committee and the treasury are in charge of the duties and responsibilities, the taxation responsibilities and the anvil base should be filled, and the food and beverage and construction are all carefully managed and stored. In the morning and evening, the gods are the most careful, and repairs are the focus. From all over the world, there are Taoist priests and Taoists who hang out in Andan and live in winter and summer. As a member of the Zhitang, he is widely used in reception. Vegetarian and coarse clothes, settle down according to the circumstances. Make sure your body and mouth are at ease, free and without thoughts. The common people have a foundation in the Tao, and their body and mind are flawless. Those who practice it assiduously should be given it every week. Shuo Wang proclaims his precepts, teaches and inspires, and strives to cultivate his true family style and ultimately the cause of his sect. Don't be greedy for officials, don't be addicted to noise, or even indulge in sound and sex, be good on the outside but good on the inside, and don't be afraid of incense, fire, and gods. The abbot under his jurisdiction will announce to Yousi that there are ancient monuments in the spiritual altar, private animals and customs, and desecration of the gods, and they will be executed down the mountain. They are not allowed to be ignorant and have bad rules and regulations. Those who follow later do not obey, are frivolous, do not practice the sect, but are stubborn and arrogant, and have made mistakes from the beginning. They must be punished according to the rites and laws, the rules and regulations should be strict, and the teachings should be publicized. If there is no mercy, all sins should be punished. In the Daoliao of recent counties and counties, the manners and manners are still good, the discipline is weak, and the rules are strictly followed.

1. Yunshui’s visit. Anyone who becomes a monk, leaves behind his parents and his ancestral temple, and aims to leave the world and leave the world behind, must have the heart to transcend illusion and understand life and death. Gou Ruo is still immersed in the dust net, running around day and night, with no hope of getting out. How is he different from the common people? The Sutra says: People who study Taoism take tranquility as their foundation, see all kinds of evil ways, such as seeing enemies, stay away from love and desire, such as avoiding odor and filth, eliminate the root of suffering, and listen to the love. Therefore, after becoming a monk, you renounce your love and love, and give up your delusion and return to it. The mission must be to understand the mind and cultivate the nature. Practice moral conduct, temper your body and mind, carry a basket, a ladle, and a crane in the lonely clouds. Or you may encounter a famous mountain cave, hang up the Andan, pay a visit to the master of Mingyan, ask the teacher, study the root of life, explore the essence of morality, understand the sect thoroughly, ponder the milk of the Dharma, do not worry about fame and wealth, wealth and honor Pay attention. Although hunger, cold, wind and heat are close to him, it is not easy for him to control; even though he is poor and humble, his ambition is not taken away from him. Bear humiliation and hide dirt, be humble in words and deeds, be humble and weak, have a pure spirit, be gentle in heart, and be strong in nature. ... He went out to seek help, ate in wind and rain, endured cold and hunger, carried a bamboo basket on tiptoes, carried a bowl on top of his bag, and was not afraid of thousands of miles away in order to reach the door of the Ming Master and the great craftsman. A word of enlightenment brings about the consequences of thousands of calamities. Wherever I come from, I follow Patriarch Bai, Feng (Ping) respects the rules of the masters and crafts halls, and the etiquette of the jungle. Anyone who makes a mistake will be punished accordingly. ...The disciples of Yun Peng and Xia You must also be of the same mind and share the same Tao, so that they will not be born with demonic consciousness and finally achieve the Tao vows. Choosing first and making friends later is like self-discipline. It is not difficult for a minister to be in the three realms and transcend the eight extremes of the gods, if he can find people from his teachers and friends, practice asceticism with a firm mind, be universally qualified, and escape from the darkness!

1. Judge people from a perspective. It is the first task to continue becoming a monk. All the famous mountain caves, cave heavens and blessed places, historical sites and spiritual altars are all places where ancient immortals and true spiritual relics went. If they want their incense to spread far and wide, they must first save people.

It is necessary to choose a home with a well-known utensil, with good nature and good character, and can be taught by common people. If they are not Taoist materials and magical tools, they are collected indiscriminately, or they are not good enough, they are violent and wrong, and they ignore the precepts and precepts, which not only tarnishes Taoism, but also determines success or failure. It may have dirty origins and humble origins, or even bring disgrace to the crown, so you should be cautious. You must find the person, then listen to his words, observe his actions, examine the details, and register him in the Laji Book of Records. The elders and the younger should talk to each other according to their own words, and there should be no favoritism or disorder. The secretaries gathered together to test the Taoist classics. They must be familiar with it, hold the names of the categories, apply to the Taoist priest, wait for the ultimatum to be opened, apply for the name according to the regulations, and the court will give it to them before they can wear a hairpin and become a Taoist priest. After wearing the crown and robe, the records in the palm of the house are often tied with a clasp. The head of the house gives instructions morning and night, abides by the rules, respects the gods, and burns and recites scriptures. All matters related to the sect's ancient scriptures, scriptures, rituals, Taoism, meanings of words, and proverbs must be thoroughly understood, and one must concentrate on the source and practice it silently. If you have enough energy to practice, you can be more consistent with the Confucianism and Zen Buddhism, and you will be a good scholar. In his spare time, he sang rituals, burned incense and waved dust, talked about Taoism and studied the truth, or recited poems and played the harp to enjoy himself, or he wore dharma and sat in a circle to study for himself. If you have an opportunity to attend a wedding ceremony, you must fast and be sincere and follow the previous instructions. It is a common thing for a monk to eat quinoa and soup and to wear common clothes. It should not be confused with the secular world. Therefore, it violates the rules, plays games and drinks, makes treacherous friends, engages in business between elders and young, is divided into sects, fails in exams, and does not sing uniformly. They are stationery, empty talk about cause and effect, talk about seductive words in songs, have no realm of fame and gain, are greedy for wealth, indulge in love and splendor, do not pay attention to the true character and family tradition, and are sinking into the foundation of their ancestors. It can be as simple as discussing punishment and letting oneself suffer; as serious as being able to comply with the precepts and go down the mountain to be expelled from the family. I will inspire you in the future and make the four directions comply with it.

1. Golden grain and grain. The Duolei Dynasty gave land and land, or the ancestral properties of the previous generations of teachers, and Tan Yue gave them to them, specifically for the purpose of supporting the incense lamps. He lives permanently in the Treasury and is appointed as a cashier. Each of the dormitories should follow the rules of permanent residence. The elders and younger ones should be in charge of the affairs of the family in turn. For those below, the elders and younger ones should take turns to be in charge according to the laws of Laxu. ...In the public treasury, all duties are held, the abbot gathers, and Charles discusses the punishment, and calculates the severity of the crime. If it is serious, it will be replaced, and if it is serious, the fine will be doubled, and the amount will be put into the treasury for public use. In the courtyard of the residence, the elders held the ceremony, and all the family members were gathered together. They lived and traveled as usual, regardless of the severity of the situation, and submitted a petition to the abbot for eviction. ...The land where they live permanently is not allowed to be sold, nor is it allowed to be privately contracted or sold at a loss. They should serve as civil servants and should follow the customs. They should be supported by Taoist priests and should be supported by Taoists. The common people should not be polluted and polluted by the wind. You must be careful, God has learned from Kong Zhao, and everyone should encourage him.

1. Palace temple repair. In all the famous mountains and blessed places, places of true spirituality and incense, many of the palaces were built during the Song, Yuan and Yuan dynasties to bless the country at the top and to provide peace to the public at the bottom. …Repair leaks, build walls and fences, clean roads, clear temples, and store mountains and forests, so that the gods can have a place to live, and the four people can find comfort. If the field grain is not used enough, it may be financed by scriptures, or it may be managed with the help of inscriptions, so it is appropriate to renovate it. It is also not allowed to use this name and color to communicate with officials in foreign countries, lure businessmen, or force people to do things without good intentions. Therefore, he will cause trouble and become a burden to the palace. ……
