Strange sayings of Taoist priests
So-called? How many monks and Taoists are there in front of hell? This sentence is neither Buddhist nor Taoist, nor is it a so-called famous saying circulating among the people. But after the Ming dynasty, from some Buddhist altar, psychic mouth.

The so-called lent believers are all members of their own families. They plagiarized some nouns and concepts of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and speciously formed a new secret association of religion and folk beliefs. Because they had to take a hostile and confrontational attitude towards monks and Taoists in their own family's religious organizations under the conflict of interests of rejecting other religions and absorbing believers, they spread it. Go to the fire station? Slogans, advocating that it is easy for laymen to practice Taoism, exaggerating the hardships, darkness and corruption of monasteries, and promoting the concept that Buddhism and Taoism all go to hell, can be described as doing everything they can.

They passed on word of mouth from street to street and became one sentence? How many monks and Taoists are there in front of hell? Catchwords can not only vilify the images of Buddhism and Taoism, but also prevent outstanding laymen from becoming monks. But it's not from Buddhist scriptures, so don't mind. However, it must be pointed out that this slogan is a story fabricated by Zhai believers with the aim of insulting Buddhism and Taoism. There are no ancient records.

But from another point of view, it should be noted that there are disadvantages when there are personnel. Monks and Taoists are not saints, so it is difficult to ensure that there are no people who break the precepts. The purpose of Buddhism is to prevent, sanction and deal with these incidents. Confucianism says:? It is human nature to make mistakes. ? In the study stage before becoming a saint, ordinary monks demand abstinence because they are unclean. Being ordained is the starting point of practice. It's normal to get up after falling and repent after breaking the precepts. Besides, even a saint can guarantee that he won't do anything wrong?

Jains are not bound by the precepts of becoming monks, but they vilify their families for not observing the precepts and exaggerate their crimes of breaking them. Their intentions are obvious, just like saying that grapes are sour without eating them.

For example, in the ninth year of the Republic of China, the Cave Treasure written by several Zhai temples in Eryuan County, west of Kunming, Yunnan, strongly accused monks of breaking the rules and fabricated stories about monks falling into hell and being punished. This can be found on page 30 of Song Guangyu's book Tiangoushen of Academia Sinica.

Although Song doesn't admit that he is a loyal follower of Taoism, he always takes an attack, abuse and vitriolic attitude when it comes to Buddhist monks in the book, denying the moral value of monks and blindly quoting and emphasizing the so-called enjoyment among Taoist relatives such as congenital, Longhua and Taoism. Although he quoted a lot of materials, he lacked rational choice, which is a manifestation of complex. From his books, we can appreciate the teacher's enthusiasm, but we can't imagine that he is a scholar of Academia Sinica.

One more thing, no matter what religion, it is good to persuade people to be good. I appreciate Taoism more here. To put it in a more chic way, I love to believe. If you don't believe me, don't bother Lao Tzu to cultivate immortality. And the so-called Christianity. . . . . Forget it, people who have experienced it should understand.
