Third, if we go to the end of the logic of good and bad, you will find that in this world, no matter how bad the situation is, we can find even worse. During the war, some were directly reincarnated as dogs and were beaten to death, some were reincarnated as flies and slapped to death, and some were reincarnated as trees. There is no other way, and some are reincarnated into stones, and the shattered bones are sealed in reinforced concrete.Where should our sympathy be placed? Thinking from another angle, no matter how rich people are, they also sigh, why didn’t they reincarnate in Wang Jianlin’s house, Beckham’s house, Bill Gates’ house, Prince William’s house, Dubai’s sheikh’s house, our jealousy Where should I put it

Therefore, these two kinds of hearts, it is best not to let go anywhere, and honestly put them in your own heart.

This can also be seen as the reason why those high-minded people don’t come out, because to get to this point, one must cultivate the nature of the heart, and sympathy will make the anger flourish, so how do you practice even, when you reach a certain level, you will know the hidden signs of horses and shadows.”

"By the way, let's talk about Taoist priests accepting apprentices. Baidu search" ", watch for free

It only talks about the monks accepting the apprentices, not the warlocks accepting the apprentices, let alone the training classes, selling methods, how much money do you support me to teach you and so on.

It also only talks about the current reality and generality, not the historical evolution.A relatively unanimous understanding in our Taoist circle is that we can be in awe of the rules set by our ancestors, but the rules of our ancestors cannot be copied and implemented.

In all fairness, this is not to avoid the precepts, nor is it purely because of quick success, but because the development cycle of Taoism is too long. The precepts of different sects and sects are different in all dynasties and dynasties. People say that you don't follow the rules, and as a result, the precepts become a tool for Taoists to complain about each other.So take logic to the extreme, abide by the highest-level precepts, and abide by the collection of all the precepts that you have ever had. Is this good?

Good, very good, but then there is no need to call it Taoism, because you have no way to preach and spread the Tao, you just need to cultivate yourself.

To give the simplest example, the rule in my master’s temple is to be vegetarian on the [-]th day of the new year, but one day happened to be the first day of the new year. The leader of the Religious Affairs Bureau invited you to dinner because of some business. Of course, you must be determined. If you want to have a good development of this temple in the future and get the support of officials, then you must eat this meat, and this The wine has to be drunk, there is no way, this is the reality.

Of course, we can also develop the logic from another angle. If you are a vegetarian on the [-]th day of the first day of the first year, should you clean the pots and bowls of onion and garlic so as to avoid the logic of whether you should brush the animal oil chopping board well? If you stop being a Taoist, you will become a Muslim.

Regarding the precepts, there may be special lectures in the future, so I will stop now.

Back to the topic, so I will only talk about the more common practice of apprenticeship now. If anyone wants to say that we are much stricter than this, the rules are much more than what I said.All I can say is, well, you are a good practitioner.

From a macro perspective, Quanzhen Dao and Zhengyi's acceptance of disciples are also different.Quanzhen Daoists accept apprentices, generally divided into accepting Taoist priests and accepting lay priests.

Because Quanzhen Taoist wanted to become a monk and live in a temple, the distinction between Quanzhen lay and Quanzhen was very clear.Now, to a certain extent, there are signs of chaos.To receive a Taoist priest is to worship a Taoist priest alone, and then live in the same temple with the master, bring tea and water to the master, saddle the front and back of the horse, and after a few years of testing, the hair is almost gone. Officially a priest.

This person can be directed at the virtue and conduct of the master, or at the various abilities and skills of the master, or it can just worship the Tao, or the worship of the temple, the worship of the gods enshrined in the temple, and Which Taoist priest you encounter is purely random, and these are fine.

If you are fully prepared and give Master a red envelope to support Master, of course there is no problem, there are no conditions, such as those who have no father or mother, or those from poor families, it doesn't matter if they don't support Master, because serving with Master every day is also a offering.

Generally speaking, Taoist priests are more cautious in accepting such apprentices, either because of a very strong fate or because they recognize others very much, otherwise they will not accept apprentices easily, because the apprentice commits personnel affairs in the future, and the master will be scolded for it. Article, the master suffers along with it.

Another type of apprentice is a lay apprentice. Taoist believers often worship a certain Taoist priest, so they worship him as a teacher and support the master. One is from dozens of hundreds to thousands of red packets. With a certificate of refuge, one becomes a Taoist layman.

After that, life in the secular world will not be affected. Go to see Master often, and help with manual labor when there is a ritual in the temple.

Due to the needs of propaganda for the promotion of Taoism and the construction of temples, the Taoist priests often have many disciples, the Taoist priests with high morals, or even hundreds of disciples of the temple administrators.

Of course, there is no need for a Taoist priest, nor the ability to test them one by one, so I think that no matter what a Taoist monk's lay apprentice does or shows, it should not affect the evaluation of the Taoist monk himself.

By the way, if the previous sentence holds true, then no matter how good, famous, and wealthy apprentice a Taoist receives, I will not raise my evaluation of this Taoist.

The situation is complicated.The Taoist priests who live in the temple, and the Taoist priests who take Taoism as their business, that is, they set up an altar themselves to pray for the believers to pray for disasters and disasters. It is possible that because of one's own practice and Taoism, he will receive lay disciples who do not want to preach as Taoist priests, but more of them must still want to become Taoist priests.

Because the Taoist priests have few rules, they don't have to keep their hair, and they can eat meat and get married and have children.The identity and title of Taoist priest is very attractive to many people, especially young people in the [-]s and [-]s.In short, no matter what the purpose is, there are more and more young people who are willing to become Taoist priests every year. Although they have all kinds of ideas after spreading the message, Master's ability to restrain them is very limited, and they cannot interfere in their secular life. In most cases, they have to act as the dispenser of chicken soup for the soul, otherwise, they are left to fend for themselves.

What's worse is the following one. If this person wants to be a Taoist priest when he is a teacher, then the master can often be tested. At least take a closer look at his face, do calculations with eight characters, and ask about his spiritual journey and growth experience. Some were persuaded to leave, and some were prepared to be mentally prepared in the same way as lay monks, even though they were saved.

But now the pace of life has accelerated. Many people are going to be a lay Buddhist when they are apprentices, and the master also came to accept him as a lay Buddhist, but within two years, life has not been smooth, the factory has laid off employees, his girlfriend has broken up, and his parents have forced marriage. , So I suddenly wanted to be a Taoist priest, so the master was very passive. If his persuasion was fruitless and he didn't want to tear his face, he could only lead him to preach.

The rules of the famous mountain temple are big, and this is easy to handle. If it is a general temple, the head of the family encounters an apprentice in this situation, and if he wants to live in the temple for a period of time, there is really no reason to refuse.

Long time, can live for a few months, short time, just arranged a single room, ran away in a few days, making everyone laugh and cry.There is even a strange flower among them. Since then, he has become a temple scoundrel, and his euphemistic name is Yunyou. In fact, he has a ritual to help him recite the scriptures.

In fact, if you aim for a few thousand yuan per month, you are not afraid of notoriety and the swaying of spiritual officials. It is a time-saving and labor-saving business to fool around in the southeastern coastal provinces.It's just that the master who was beaten by them was out of luck.In fact, there are indeed many Zhengyi people under the age of [-] who are engaged in this kind of business. Of course, they will not admit that they are fooling. Can only laugh.

To put it bluntly, all this is caused by impetuous people, too fast social changes, complicated life trajectories, too low threshold for positive transmission, and too simple procedures.

Now some Quanzhen temples and even Shifang jungles have begun to learn to hold regular and large-scale crown and scarf ceremonies just like Yi Chuan. I unfortunately watched it once. You can get a turban. A turban is only RMB [-] yuan, and a Taoist costume is also given. Even those who have shaved their heads can go to the turban, and there will be a turban master who will perform a symbolic haircut.Some people don't even know who the Master is mentioned on the ultimatum, and they don't know what they think.

Therefore, if you want to become a Taoist priest, the best way to test whether the master really likes you and treats you with sincerity is to see if he is willing to give you a list. And the immortals, there is someone like you in the Taoist sect. In the future, the master is willing to bear for you.This is the same for all the real one. Even if the master himself does not know how to perform rituals and rituals, he can conduct a simple ceremony or let other priests in the temple do it.Theoretically, lay Buddhists do not need to list, but it is not ruled out that if a Taoist priest is happy to give you one, and show his merit or sincerity, then you will earn it.

After saying so many words, some friends asked if they could be apprentices or something. I saw them all. It’s not that I think of myself as lofty or that I don’t have the confidence to accept disciples, but I know that there are such things in Taoism now, I just need to be a little serious. Some, be cautious, the threshold will appear to be very high.

I don’t rely on Taoism to earn money for food, and I don’t live in temples. Naturally, I don’t need to accept lay disciples, and I don’t even need to take the support of those so-called apprentices who admire me. , It is a very troublesome thing to know more people in your life who have a lot of fate with you.

I think that if I can meet one or two people I like in my life, I will give face to my grandfather, so at this stage I can only say that it is random.Bringing apprentices is a lifetime thing. Compared with a lifetime, I tell you this on the live broadcast, and it is no different from meeting by chance on the road.

Let's assume a scene, I'm wearing a Taoist suit, sitting by the sidewalk of the road, printing out the words I said on A4 paper, laying it flat in front of me, someone must come to watch me, yo, look at what I said, I wanted to have a relationship with me, or even a teacher, and then I said yes, welcome and welcome.

Isn't this scene funny? Actually, what's the difference between being on the Internet, on a forum, and on the road?

In fact, after Ma Yin hides the sign, it is the intersection of heart and kidney, which is the only way to become immortal.

The intersection of heart and kidney is a good topic. According to my observation, here, if there is no packaging of the story, if you talk about Dan Tao directly, you will be punished by jabs or even deleted posts.Even naked preaching is dangerous.What's interesting is that the more you talk about it, the more likely you are to be blocked. It's okay to talk nonsense or have no pure magic in your stomach.So I use this topic to hit the edge ball.

First of all, the so-called homology of medicine and Taoism, no matter in Chinese medicine or Taoism, a person's body is not sick, that is, the so-called health, not the best state, this state is only fifty percent, and one hundred percent is the state of the perfect person. In my words, it is the critical point between human and immortal.And the process of [-] to [-] percent is the process of cultivating immortals.If this process is described by the discourse system of pure Chinese medicine, the intersection of heart and kidney is an important proposition.

We all know that the alchemy is called alchemy because it is also called inner alchemy. Compared with outer alchemy, inner alchemy uses the body as the cauldron and the spirit as the medicine. It's the heart and kidneys.The heart belongs to fire, and the kidneys belong to water. The so-called alchemy is a figurative way of saying that there is water in the cauldron, fire is burning under the cauldron, and the water is gradually boiled.In this process, the spleen earth regulates the kidney water, the liver wood regulates the heart fire, and the lung metal is like a blower. The official term is called Luan, and the whole rhythm is controlled by the breath. Interestingly, among our five senses, only the nose is the sense of smell. Other visual, auditory, taste, and tactile sensations that can be suspended through human consciousness can only be suspended by covering means such as closing eyes and covering ears.

The sense of smell, as long as you don't breathe.Among the five internal organs of the human being, only the lungs can be controlled by the human consciousness. Whether other organs work and the rhythm and frequency of the work can only be controlled by the consciousness.In short, this overall looks like an image of burning firewood and boiling water.

It seems very simple, but it is actually very difficult. The so-called sages pass on gong but not fire, but the method is actually open, not only in books, but also on the Internet.But that's not the case at all in practice.First of all, no one led the door, and many terms were incomprehensible.The second is that no one has pointed out the timing. It is a trivial matter if you fail to practice, but it is a big deal if you fail.Getting angry is the lightest, and not without schizophrenia.For example, if you go to the wild to set up a bonfire, set up a pot and cook, and try a pot of rice, you will know the importance of heat.Therefore, if you teach alchemy to an unspecified object in public, if you can save one person, at least a hundred people will be harmed.

The most difficult part of this is that the fire of the heart is on the top and the water of the kidneys is below, and it becomes the phenomenon that the fire and the water are not helping. To make the pills can be refined, the fire of the heart must sink and the water of the kidneys will rise, and it will become a phenomenon that the water and fire are both helpful. Only then can you start to practice, otherwise meditation is just sitting in a dry position, and entering meditation is just sleeping.

The reason why it is said that the inner alchemy starts to guard the dantian means that the heart fire must be lowered first.

Therefore, if an alchemist at this stage is young and strong, it is not a big problem to take lead occasionally, but he can't get angry.

In the mid-term, the main thing is to raise the kidney water, and the lowering of the heart fire is the supplement, and then look at the alchemists at this time.Why do physiological reasons and psychological reasons complement each other.When you reach the advanced level, it is like walking on a tightrope. It is said that you must go to the remote mountains and forests, cliffs, and desert islands to practice.Although I haven't experienced it, it makes sense to think about it. Any disturbance in the world at this time may cause the butterfly effect to have a huge impact on the alchemist.The only way is to see no one.As for animals, at that level, you will no longer be afraid of animals.
