Chapter 332 The foundation of Buddhism
"Now the teachings of the Tao are harmful to the Tao, we should correct them..."
When the young man in a golden Taoist robe read the first sentence of the imperial edict in the sky, he immediately caused an uproar in this great ceremony.
For the more than 50 immortals present, this was like throwing a mountain into the lake of heart, which made their hearts boil. Even if they were old immortals present who had been practicing for hundreds of years, they could basically not change their appearance before. At this time, they could not control their shock.
The teachings of the Tao should be corrected...
The two ancestors of Qingcheng Mountain in Zhengyi, Huang Shunzhi and Zhang Daobin, looked at each other at this time, and saw the changing emotions from their eyes. It was very incredible, as if you heard the most incredible things in the world.
Over the years, Lin Lingsu walked out of Shenxiao Road and moved into the capital, becoming the most famous Taoist man around the Emperor of Daozong. The proposal of the "Nine Sky Heavenly Court System" directly sealed all the immortals of Zhengyi and Quanzhen, the ancients who had ascended into that "empty" heavenly court.
Now we have to take action against Buddhism.
Just as the mood of more than 50 immortals, including Zhengyi Sect, Quanzhen Dao, etc., the ministers and officials of Dao Song were trembling, the young people in the sky ignored anyone's emotions, their voices were like lightning strikes in the sky, and every word was clear:
"The Buddhist Buddhism is not the original sect in our country. It was originally passed down by him. For all ages, it has never been used for production and deceived the people, and it is unforgivable."
The voice penetrated the minds of nearly a thousand people here, and everyone's hearts trembled, and all the unforgivable words were spoken out.
This is an imperial edict.
It represents the decision of the Supreme Emperor.
After this decree is issued, it is really necessary to attack Buddhism, not a joke.
Is it possible that this dynasty will begin to destroy Buddha again?!
The voice in the sky continued to say lightly:
"These foreign teachers of Hu Bang were all wiped out in this prosperous era to protect the national religion. However, it has been thousands of years since Buddhist Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains and have been deeply rooted. Nowadays, most of the Buddhists are the bloodline of the people in the Central Plains. They have launched an army to destroy Buddhism and temples, which has actually hurt people."
"Fortunately, the immortal of Shenxiao, Lin Lingsu, said that although the Buddhist sect cannot be destroyed, they can be changed into the Taoist sect, and the Qingyuan is reshaped, and the Buddha's land is changed into a palace, and the Sakyamuni is changed into a heavenly lord. He does not call the Buddha's name, and he calls it the Great Awakening Golden Immortal, Bodhisattva is changed into a great master, Arhat is changed into a venerable, and monks are all left with their heads and crowns and holding simplified."
After reading it, Lin Lingsu's eyes were combined with the ten imperial edicts:
"I'm here!"
This moment.
It instantly made everyone's scalp numb. The impact contained in this last sentence was too great, and all the souls were trembling.
"Change the Buddha's land into a palace, and the Buddha was changed to the Heavenly Lord. All Buddhist arhats and Bodhisattva fruit positions are called according to the Taoist immortals, this, this..."
"This is not about taking action against Buddhism. This is a more vicious action than destroying Buddhism. It is about annihilation of Buddhism in one fell swoop!!"
"Lin Lingsu is too brave. Looking at the history of ancient times, even if there are incidents of destruction of Buddhism in all dynasties, it is just burning temples and violently destroying Buddhism. He actually wants to completely reverse the Buddhist scriptures and thoughts."
"If this matter is accomplished and this matter is accomplished, it will be said that in the future, the Buddha will be the Tao."
The more than fifty immortals in the Great Ceremony were shocked at this moment, and all of them were in a flash of thoughts, so they all stood there in a daze, and no one even thought about it and had to accept the order.
Until Wang Anshi, the head of the civil officials in the court, took the letter and took a step forward:
"Long live my emperor, I will obey the order."
When all the immortals saw that the capital of the Great Song Dynasty's civil minister had already made a statement, they were the first to stand up to safeguard the majesty of the imperial edict, and they all woke up one after another:
"My emperor is wise, we obey the order."
The dynasty of the world today is still the Emperor of Daozong who is overwhelming the world. He owns the Martial Saint Yue Fei and the Wen Saint Zhu Xi, and he is also a rare master of the Taoist Immortal Realm.
The Taoist sect and the dynasty were originally a family relationship, and this incident was not a harm to the Taoist sect, but was targeting Buddhism.
After the initial shock, they calmed down and decided to follow the order first.
After watching Wang Anshi's salute, the immortal ministers bowed slightly to Lin Lingsu and asked:
"But, I wonder whom did what this imperial edict said to be sent to by His Majesty?"
Lin Lingsu smiled faintly and refused to say anything: "What is the Prime Minister saying?"
"Since it is a proposal put forward by me, I will naturally go to supervise it."
Wang Anshi asked again: "I wonder which Buddha land is Shenxiao's immortal going to start changing the Buddha into the Tao?"
"This is not a matter of worrying about the Prime Minister and others. The imperial edict has been issued. I will say goodbye first."
Only such a sentence was left in the sky.
At another moment, the young Taoist in a golden and jade robe turned around and walked away.
At the Great Ceremony, a group of immortals left their guesses, and they no longer had the intention to participate in the Great Ceremony of Praying for Blessings, and they all began to send the contents of this imperial edict to their own Taoist sect at the first time.
Wait until the ceremony is over.
This imperial edict of "changing the Buddha's praise" has quickly flew from the Daosong Imperial City to all parts of the world.
…………
Those who left the capital, including Wang Chongyang, Shi Tai, Xue Shi, and the Quanzhen Immortals, all came to Longmen Mountain where the Quanzhen leader Zi Yang Immortal is located.
After leaving the imperial city, the immortals finally began to talk about the content of the shocking imperial edict at the Great Ceremony without any hiding:
"This Lin Lingsu is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger. It was fine to enclose Quanzhen and one or two immortals into the Heavenly Court system. They were just names without pain. After all, before, my Song Dynasty was a Taoist country. There was a precedent for the Emperor of the Dao Sect to enthrone the title of Taoist priest, real person, and immortal for the Taoist monks in the world. It was not too difficult to accept."
The person who spoke was Zhong Yue, the sect leader of the Tianxian Sect, and the eleventh realm immortal, and he sneered in a cold tone: "But this time, he actually wanted to ascend to heaven and directly enclose all the Buddhist sect into his 'Heavenly Court System'. This ideal is not bad, but it is too big, and he is not afraid of letting his soul go away!"
“That’s right!”
"Although Buddhism has a small fortune in the Taoist Song world today, it has accumulated foundations over thousands of years, so it is so easy to be completely included in the Taoist sect by a small Lin Lingsu..."
The person who answered the conversation was Yin Wenzhong, the old Taoist of the Louguan School, who was the descendant of the Immortal Wenshi. He founded the Louguan School with his five thousand words of morality.
Wang Chongyang stood among the Quanzhen Immortals with his hands in his arms and said lightly:
"But if he looked at it from another point, if he could really do this, he would probably surpass Zhang Daoling and Lu Zu in the future history books."
Even the two Taoist leaders, Zhang Daoling, and Lu Zulu Chongyang, were just to integrate internal Taoist departments. They were not as polite as Lin Lingsu, and they wanted to integrate Buddhism outside Taoism.
If this is done, the Taoist Buddhism will be united in the future, and Lin Lingsu's status will surpass that of Zu Tianshi, and the two Taoist ancestors, Lu Chunyang, will not be a problem at all.
Zhong Yue, the leader of the Tianxian Sect, sneered: "You are too proud of this person in Chongyang. I just said that this person's ideal is not bad, but too big. He can't do this alone at all."
Yin Wenzhong, the leader of the Louguan Sect, stroked his beard and said: "On the cultivation level, this son's cultivation talent is indeed terrifying, and he can be called a monster in ancient and modern times. However, the Central Plains Buddhism is not without the thirteen-level powerhouses like Senior Ziyang."
It is indeed the prosperous era of Taoist Sect in the Song Dynasty, but Buddhism is not entirely a big cat, two or three kittens.
There are still several pillars supporting the huge Buddha sect, the first of which are Lingyin Temple and Jinshan Temple.
Among them, Elder Jigong of Lingyin Temple, everyone in the Taoist sect knows his origin. It is said that he is the reincarnation of the "Dragon-Subduing Arhat" in Buddhist mythology. Although he is not in Lingyin Temple for many years, he turns into a crazy monk playing in the world.
But his cultivation is terrifying, and even the Immortal Ziyang feels unsure of defeating it.
There is also the Fahai in Jinshan Temple. Although it is only a twelve realms like a mountain, it is said that there is a golden bowl that was once used by the ancient "Sakya Mani" as a magic tool.
Sakyamuni, in this world, is the founder of the Buddhist sect who is even older than Master Zhang Tian.
It is a role of the same generation as Li Er and Confucius and two other two major sects.
He is also the first ascenators in this world.
Speaking of the foundation of Buddhism, a Quanzhen immortal who is familiar with Buddhism shook his head at this time, and said, "This is just the foundation of Zen in the Central Plains. There are also Buddhist masters of Tantric Buddhism on the side of the Demon Yuan. Although the relationship between Tantric Buddhism and Zen Buddhism is somewhat similar to our relationship with Zhengyi, and has differences in theory and paths, if Lin Lingsu takes action against the entire Buddhism and thinks from the perspective of others, it is equivalent to a monk who wants to subscribe both of our Taoism into Buddhism. Even if we have grudges with Zhengyi again, we may not ignore it."
Hearing such words, although the other Quanzhen Immortals frowned slightly, no one raised any refutation.
Indeed, if there were masters of the Buddha Sect who had to take the imperial court as the background, they would lead the Taoist sect into Buddhism, and let them worship Buddha and chant the Buddha's name, Zhengyi and Quanzhen would not see each other in trouble and not rescue him.
This is not just the principle of losing your lips and cold teeth, but also a bottom line issue.
In a Taoist tradition, no matter how many sects fight, it is a matter of their own sects. However, if they are attacked by other Taoist traditions, it is not an internal struggle, and they need to unite and unite to the outside world.
"This time we are sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight. Lin Lingsu has risen too quickly in recent years, and is a little ignorant of the world. If he only targets a certain sect and temple in Buddhism, he will directly attack the entire sect of Buddhism. Even if we want to attack Buddhism, we have not done this. If we are not careful, it will be that both Taoism and Buddhism are seriously damaged at the same time, and they are not wise. Young people are too unwise!"
The person who said this is Xue Shi, the third leader of the Quanzhen Southern Sect, who is the disciple of Ziyang Immortal, and he is like a celestial master.
