From A.D. 1 100 to A.D. 1800, the White Lotus Sect lasted for 700 years, and emperors of all dynasties suppressed it, but in the end they were helpless. As a mysterious arrangement that cannot be eradicated, it is developing day by day among the people.
Anbalism originated in the Southern Song Dynasty to help the Ming Dynasty destroy the Yuan Dynasty. In A.D. 1 133, a monk named Mao Ziyuan claimed to be Anbaili, and then under his leadership, Anbaili religion began to take shape.
At first, the White Lotus Sect was not an arrangement of rebellion, but a folk arrangement of Buddhism, which advocated not killing and not eating meat. Doctrine is basically similar to Buddhism, but it is a kind of folk arrangement that does not belong to the imperial court. After a long period of development, there are some cases that are distorted because there is no order management.
During the Yuan Dynasty, although the Southern Song Dynasty was completely destroyed, the White Lotus Sect still existed. At this moment, the White Lotus Sect is even bigger and its teachings have changed greatly.
Because many white lotus religions were composed of Song people, there was hatred in everyone's heart when the Southern Song Dynasty perished, so the fire of revenge burned violently in all religions, which caused great trouble to the Yuan Dynasty.
Even when the Yuan Dynasty was destroyed by Zhu Yuanzhang and others, Bai Lianjiao actually made great efforts in the same way, but it was not a professional military arrangement, so it did not compete with Zhu Yuanzhang in the end.
The suppression of Bailian religion in the Ming Dynasty planted a seed in the hearts of the people. Therefore, although the headquarters and branches of the White Lotus Sect were destroyed in the struggle with the Yuan Dynasty, as long as one believer is still alive, this doctrine can continue to spread.
In the Ming Dynasty, Bailian Sect was planned again, and it was one of the most important sects at that time. Although the White Lotus Sect helped the Ming Dynasty to defeat the Yuan Dynasty, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty did not like it, and directly wrote down the suppression of the White Lotus Sect in the regulations.
What the Ming emperor did was to realize the threat of Anbalism to the rulers. They can make believers completely ignore the influence of imperial power, only listen to the orders of the leader, and then easily make people in a certain city rebel.
That's why the White Lotus Sect ushered in such a cruel suppression. People who exterminate the White Lotus Sect do not need to go through any judicial procedure, and officials of the Ming Dynasty can directly arrest or even execute them.
It marks that Anbailism in Qing Dynasty was suppressed by Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years. However, during the Qing dynasty, it was still alive and well, which also brought more trouble to the rulers of the Qing dynasty. At this time, people put forward the slogan of anti-Qing and regaining sight.
Just like before, the rulers of the Qing Dynasty hated the members of Anbaili Sect, but the slogan of anti-Qing and regaining sight was very effective, so Anbaili Sect failed to form a storm in the Ming Dynasty, but it really rebelled in the Qing Dynasty.
Many white lotus believers rebelled during Jiaqing period and defeated tens of thousands of Qing troops with great fanfare. This planned rebellion lasted for nine years, which made everyone know that the Qing Dynasty was pedantic and backward, and the prosperous period of Kanggan has now become history.
For a unified dynasty, it took nine years to quell an internal peasant uprising. Now it has been clarified that the pedantry of the dynasty has penetrated into the bone marrow and the combat effectiveness of the army has become a joke.
The reason why it can't be eradicated is that Anbaili can withstand the suppression of emperors for 700 years. It has now been clarified that this Sect is extremely vital, promotes Buddhist thought and is deeply integrated with the bottom people.
Li Shimin once said that man is like a boat. Water can carry the boat, but it can also overturn it. With the support of the public, it is not difficult to explain that the ship of Anbalism can last forever.
