Some buddhists often think oneself "the edge down", "nothing", however, Taoism was to do such detachment, permeating because, who has faith in Taoism has a strong national sense of responsibility. The king of youdao, the king of the state, is "the Lord of Taoism". In the field, the "king of heaven", "to eat, to eat, to live, to live, to live, to live", is at ease.
It is almost impossible to achieve the so-called detachment of the fatherless. If one day they do, the Chinese nation will be in danger.
Buddhists believe that life is a pain, and that the person is "the skin of the skin", and that no day can be saved from the bitter sea and the heart of the other shore. Daoism, however, was born with a light death, good at taking three treasures, breathing and nourishing, seeking to live with heaven and earth, and with its bright and long vision and wisdom.
The importance and respect of Taoism for life and the in-depth study and exploration of life science are also reflected in the eyes of buddhists, which are not fully put down.
Jun: if one day, I wait for really what all put down, that should be a kind of end? Break up, bankrupt, break home, break country. When the country is broken, everything is empty.
From the teachings and doctrines of Buddhism, it can be said that "put down" is indeed a kind of great wisdom. But the premise of this great wisdom is that everyone is full of Buddha, and everyone has compassion, which is longer and greater than the realization of the communist society.
The question is, if the current ourselves "put down the butcher's knife" ready to Buddha, suddenly discovered that our enemies not only didn't put down the butcher's knife, even the aircraft carrier will be open in their country's territorial waters edge punching head, what shall we do? What about our citizens? Can we also wave our sleeves and not take away a cloud? Can we still laugh at the lotus platform and the other shore?
At least, I can't, and I'm sure any bloody Chinese can't do the same.
At this time, we need to put an end to empty words and empty words, and we need to work on the truth. After the degree of self-improvement, we will continue to preach the word, which will be "built on the body", and then "fix it in the home" and "fix it in the country" and "repair it to the world".
What is the word "universality"?
If Buddhism is divided into two parts, Taoism is divided into two sects: one is teaching and the whole is Taoism.
Is a teach formerly "bureau", is that monastery, shun emperor years in sichuan mount heming first with the banner of Taoism, because that is the teacher of the Mukden vehicle, it is regarded as "zhang tianshi".
According to retreat lu door branch law said: "the bureau catheter 24, 36 jing lu. Monks, two thousand four hundred people, both inside and outside the two hundred baiguan, copy from internate wantong, whole operator cut temple, kill the ghost strangers, erases the universe, positive 35, Sunday everywhere, may not have lustful ghost." all the heart, about people, please god don't diet, is not affected by money. Make the CiXiao, dilettante respect for, the physics and chemistry, to help countries taking life."
After the daoism was formally formed in the eastern han dynasty, the Taoist temple was called "the worship of the emperor". After that, the temple was built and the altar was set up, and the purpose was also "to worship the god, and to teach the people to pursue filial piety."
The importance of respecting the ancestors is to protect the blood, dignity and cohesion of all the Chinese people and the centripetal force of the motherland. Is a teach exorcism drop and chop monster to break him, is to maintain QingTai heaven and earth, condensed upright, advocating justice, let people heart not disorderly, due to the path, so the ancestral that also is considered a "drop magic protects Buddha".
It is not a matter of satiation, but rather the act of "supporting the law to save the good people".
However, a Taoist priest, who is not murderous and merciless, can only be proved by the "fox fairy hall" in the tianshi mansion.
During the reign of emperor chongning of the northern song dynasty, the third generation of celestial masters was sitting in the hall of the three provinces. Suddenly, he was in the air, and he rose to look at the sky, and felt like a demon. While pondering, I saw a yellow woman kneeling before her knees, crying and pleading with the celestial body to save her.
Who is the virtual emperor? The woman described herself as a two thousand year-old fox spirit, which has been refined for two thousand years and is about to become a fruit. Tianting thunder and lightning are split, but the fox is pregnant, the fetus is innocent, so please help.
After listening to the fox's cry, the virtual emperor has a lot of pity. Thinking: "all things are born, and there are creatures. Although the fox is disgusting, she can't be caught in the womb. If the fox can be good, is it not a good deed?" So, xu jing tianshi deal with three chapters: the first to keep vegetarian fast, no other animal cruelty; second, seclusion to selective shall not harass people; the third to be ordained to trade, they try hard to chant in the morning and evening, change his ways, and do good for the people ". The fox made an oath without breaking the law.
When he saw that she was repentant, he called him to stand. Then he led a few disciples to the temple of heaven to burn incense candles, to the heaven, to play a message, to play the role of pardoning fox. After a while, the sky returned to a clear, blue sky, full of spring. Fox thousand thanks to farewell tianshi, from now on in the ears of yuntai mountain seclusion, feed on ShanGuo, order and soon gave birth to a fat in vain little girl, named: "small white fairy".
This touching story has a good ending. Whenever I read here, couldn't help exclamation, fox in practice, Gao Deshen XingYu road, xu jing tianshi, if she accidentally went wrong place, met and the old monk in jinshan temple, then again, its fate is probably a different ending.
The degree of human being, the later fox fairy mother and daughter, also not less help the family of the family. It is said that during the time of the forty-three generations of celestial masters, it had left the law: "for more than 100 years, the two foxes have contributed a lot to my dao, and they have become immortal. After the forty-fourth generation of celestial teacher zhang yuqing obeyed his fate, he turned the western living room into a "fox fairy hall" and molded the statue.
Since ancient times, the sage has been a hermit. Under the promotion of history, some new sects were added in the history of Taoism in the song and yuan dynasties, among which the most influential was the quanzhen Taoism founded by wang chongyang. Its purpose is "to understand the essence of the three religions" and "to know the truth", so the name is "quanzhen". The science of uniting the idea was to quietism, to love to desire, make sex, the mind and refining the relating an alchemist, including "ZhenGong" shame shame as internal, and degrees to preach and helpful to people outside the "true", power line be satisfactory, the SAN to come true, refers to "all".
Many people believe that within the quanzhen Taoism in repairing the card, after is his immortal fruit, Dan as soaring, belongs to the typical of the ego from selfish practice method, though the method is feasible, but the condition is not high.
Is that really the case?
Among the seven sons of wang chong Yang, it was the most influential of the changchun human qiu zuo.
In that year, the church was so popular that it became so popular that genghis khan invited him. At that time genghis khan army, fierce and brutal, killing the sex, difficult to understand. In under the time background of genghis khan and attack massacre, Qiu Zu to save the people's livelihood, decided to go to meet genghis khan regardless of personal safety, before he left with will and poem: "ten years of war MinChou, must in no 2 stay. Last year, has a kind under the imperial edict, spring demands take cold to swim. To the north three thousands of miles, read shandong two hundred state. Poor deeds in the drain over, early education and life away sorrow."
At the time, qiu zu, who was nearly 80 years old, was so close to his disciples that he preached a sermon on the way, carrying forward the mystery, traveling thousands of miles, and trying hard. At last, three years later, he arrived at the camp of snow mountain in Afghanistan.
After the two met, qiu zu gave a hard punch. Genghis khan asked the medicine of longevity.
"I have no medicine for growth," qiu replied. "but there is a way to live a long life.
Genghis khan asked about the rule of state. Qiu zuo replied, "if you want to unify the world, you will care not to kill people. You need to respect the people." . Genghis khan is a great joy, and lives to be written down, to educate future generations. He also gave the book, the guardian, and his life to the world of Taoism.
The holy trace of qiu zu-xiu was praised by the later historians as "a word to kill". Under the influence of qiu's machine, "a generation of heavenly pride" was deeply moved, finally ordered "stop killing", and pardoned tens of thousands of captured soldiers, hundreds of thousands of chengchi people avoided the disaster of the destruction of the family.
Later, the qing emperor qianlong for baiyunguan temple Qiu Zu baiyunguan temple inscription: "longevity of all ages, not dinner chardonnay secret; a word check killed, beginning know offers outstanding", is the longmen Qiu Zu "since the degree and purdue" spoke highly of his whole life.
With Buddhism, compared to acer, endless vows deep to Taoism has not said how many world-shaking "big", but the Lao tze's teachings on the lineage too: "the kindness, the waste, and yue unimportance", md if the mei, if into the way back, showing a park, don't act the role of vanity. It is the same with virtue, and it is the same with the world, and it is wise to stay foolish.
译文
一些徒常以为自己「四大皆空」「诸缘放下」，然而，道教是做不到如此这般的超脱三界，因为，信仰道教的人士都具有强烈的民族责任感。有道之士，在朝则「以道佐人主」，兼济天下，心怀万民；在野则「敬天法祖」，「甘其食，美其服，安其居，乐其俗」，自在逍遥。
要我们做到「无父无君」般所谓超脱，这基本上是不可能的。倘若有一天真的做到了，那中华民族也就危在旦夕了。
徒认为人生是苦，人身是「臭皮囊」，无一日不存脱离苦海，登达彼岸之心。而道教偏偏乐生轻死，善于摄固三宝，呼吸育清，追求与天地同其寿，与日月同其明的长生久视与智慧之道。
道教对生命的看重与尊重，对生命科学的深入研究和探索，在徒的眼里，这也是执著之心的体现，没有做到「完全放下」。
诸君：倘若有一天，我等真的什么都放下了，那该是一种什么结局？破身、破产、破家、破国。国破人不在，万象复归空？
从的教理、教义上来讲，是可以讲的，「放下」确实是一种大智慧。但是这种大智慧的前提，是人人都具足佛性，人人都有慈悲之心，。
问题是，倘若当前我们自己「放下屠刀」准备矢志成佛的时候，猛然发现我们的敌人不但没放下屠刀，甚至连航空母舰都开在自己国家的领海边缘耀武扬威不可一世时，我们怎么办？我们的国民怎么办？我们还能够挥一挥衣袖，不带走一片云彩吗？我们还可以笑着位证莲台、同登彼岸吗？
至少，我做不到，我相信任何一位有血性的中国人同样做不到。
在这个时候，我们需要杜绝空洞的大话虚话，脚踏实地地修真悟道，先求自度。自度之后，再传道行道，由「修之于身」，继而「修之于家」「修之于乡」「修之于邦」「修之于天下」。
道传天下，不是「普度」又是什么？
如分「显密」二宗一般，道教亦分两大教派：正一道教与全真道教。
正一道教的前身是「五斗米道」，是张道陵于东汉顺帝年间，在四川鹤鸣山首擎道教之大旗，因张道陵是奉天行道之师，故被尊称为「张天师」。
据陆静修《道门科律》说：「五斗米道置二十四治，三十六靖庐。内外道士二千四百人，下千二百官，章文万通，诛符伐庙，杀鬼生人，荡涤宇宙，明正三五，周天匝地，不得复有淫邪之鬼。罢诸禁心，请约治民，神不饮食，师不受钱。使内修慈孝，外行敬让，佐时理化，助国扶命。」
道教在东汉正式形成教团后，即高标「尊天敬祖」，之后，所修庙堂、设坛场，用意也在「敬神事，教民追孝也。」
尊天敬祖的重要意义在于维护华夏民族的血统、尊严和凝聚所有炎黄子孙的归根心理及热爱祖国的向心力。正一道教驱邪降魔、斩妖破秽，在于维护天地清泰，凝聚正气，提倡正义、让民众一心不乱，归于正道，故祖天师张道陵也被尊为「降魔护道天尊」。
正一道教替天行道，斩妖摄魔，并不是吃饱了没事干，而是真正地「扶持道法救良民」，是度人于无量并落实到行动的具体行为。
但是，斩妖缚邪的正一道士，并不是杀气腾腾，毫无慈悲之心，龙虎山天师府中的「狐仙堂」即可一证。
北宋崇宁年间，第三十代天师虚静公一日正在「三省堂」打坐之际，突然闻巨雷当空，虚靖天师起身仰望天空，觉似有妖魔出现。正在思忖时，忽见一身穿黄女子气喘吁吁地跪倒在前，流泪恳求天师真人相救。
虚靖天师喝问何人？黄衫女子称自己是修行两千年的狐狸精，已修炼两千年，即将修成正果，所以历此大劫。天庭命雷电相劈，奈何此狐狸精已有孕在身，胎儿无辜，所以求天师救命。
听完狐狸精的哭诉，虚靖天师颇有怜悯之意。心想：「天生万物，都有生灵。尽管狐狸精令人厌恶，但她腹中狐婴不能受到株连。如果狐狸精能改恶从善，不也是一件义举吗？」于是，虚靖天师与其约法三章：「第一要持斋，不许残害其它动物；第二要择地隐居，不得骚扰百姓；第三要受戒入道，早晚诵经，改恶从善，为民做好事」。狐狸精当即拱手立誓，决不违犯。
虚靖天师见她有悔改之心，便叫其起立受戒。然后带领几名道徒前往祖天师殿焚香点烛，向天庭发文申奏，奏明赦免狐狸精的原委。不一会儿，天空便恢复晴朗，呈现出一派碧空万里，春意盎然的景象。狐狸精千恩万谢地辞别天师，从此隐居在耳口的云台山中，以山果为食，潜心修道，不久生下一个白白胖胖的小女孩，取名：「小白仙」。
这段动人的故事，终有善终。每当读到此处，不由得感叹万分，狐狸精奉道修行，幸遇道高德深的虚靖天师，倘若她一不小心跑错地方，在金山寺遇到了法海老和尚，那其命运可能又是另外一番结局。
度人者自度，后来的狐仙母女，亦没少帮天师世家的忙。据说四十三代天师羽化之时，曾留下法旨：「百余年来，云台山二狐对吾道贡献良多，已成仙果。天师府内可为其塑金身以祀。」四十四代天师张宇清遵从遗命，便把西客厅辟为「狐仙堂」，并塑了神像。
自古圣贤崇黄老，天下隐士多道家。在历史的推动下，宋元时期道教史上又增加了一些新的教派，其中影响力最大的当属王重阳创立的全真道。其教以「三教圆通」「识心见性」「独全其真」为宗旨，故名「全真」。其修炼主旨是清静无为，去情去欲，修心炼性，养气炼丹，含耻忍辱为内修「真功」，以传道济世度人为外修「真行」，功行两全，证圣成真，谓之「全真」。
许多人认为，全真道教内修内证，追求的是自己成仙证果，丹成飞升，属于典型的小我者自度自私自利的修行法，虽然其法可行，但其境不高。
真的是这样一回事吗？
王重阳祖师全真七子中，当推创立龙门一派的长春真人邱祖处机影响最大。
当年邱祖传道布教，声望与日俱增，以至于成吉思汗遣使相邀。当时的成吉思汗军队，凶悍粗野，杀戮成性，难以理喻。，邱祖为拯救民生，决定不顾个人安危去面见成吉思汗，临行前曾以诗言志：「十年兵火万民愁，千万中无一二留。去年幸逢慈诏下，今春需索冒寒游。不辞岭北三千里，仍念山东二百州。穷极漏诛残喘在，早教身命得消忧。」
时值近八十高龄的邱祖，就这样亲率十八弟子，一路上讲经布道，弘扬玄义，跋涉万里，历尽艰辛，西行劝谏……终于在三年后抵达今阿富汗境内的雪山行军大营。
两人见面后，邱祖抱拳稽首。成吉思汗问以长生之药。
邱祖回答：「我没有长生之药，但有长寿之道，养生当以清心寡欲为要。」
成吉思汗又问以治国之道。邱祖答曰：「欲统一天下者，必在乎不嗜杀人，需敬天爱民为本……」。成吉思汗大悦，并命左右记下，以育后人。并赐邱祖玺书、护符，命其掌管天下道教之事。
邱祖西行的圣迹，被后世史学家誉为「一言止杀」。在丘处机的影响下，「一代天骄」深受感动，终于下令「止杀」，并赦免数万被俘士兵，几十万城池人民避免了家破人亡的惨烈灾祸。
后来，清乾隆皇帝为白云观邱祖白云观题词：「万古长生，不用餐霞求秘诀；一言止杀，始知济世有奇功」，就是对龙门邱祖「自度而普度」一生的高度评价。
与的宏深大愿、无边誓愿相比，道教并没有说过多少惊天动地的「大话」，而是沿袭了太上老子的教诲：「一曰慈，二曰俭，三曰不敢为天下先」，明道若昧，进道若退，见素抱朴，不饰虚华。踏踏实实地将自己修行与利益天下结合起来，同于道、同于德，同于天下，并且大智若愚，为而不争，韬光养晦，让利天下。
