Taiping Jing is the main classic of Taoism, which explains the way of governing the country by yin and yang and five elements, and preaches that if wealth is dispersed, you will be poor and self-reliant. Also known as "Taiping Qing Ling Shu". This book, under the guise of the man of God (also known as Shi Tian), answers questions with real six-party people, and gives a speech on primitive Taoist teachings and magic. It is huge and complicated. Generally speaking, it takes the service of heaven as its purpose, conforms to the yin and yang elements, and extensively expounds the way of governing the country, the theory of ethics, and the techniques of longevity, treatment and health preservation, and connects God with experience. Although his theory was influenced by divination in Han Dynasty, it advocated the idea of retribution of good and evil, and was "full of witchcraft and miscellaneous words". But it also has its own system, the purpose of which is to follow the laws of heaven and earth, govern the country and cultivate one's morality, and achieve world peace. They represent the lower class, oppose the bullying of the rulers, advocate self-reliance and help the poor. Therefore, it was used by early folk Taoist leaders such as Zhang Jiao to organize and launch peasant uprisings. The Taoist doctrine of later generations was also influenced by this book. According to historical records, there are three kinds of * *, which were written in the Han Dynasty. One is the twelve volumes of Taiping Jing written by Gan Zhongke, a Qi man when he proclaimed himself emperor in the Western Han Dynasty, claiming to be taught by the Emperor of Heaven. The second is the book Taiping Qingling, which was written during the reign of Shundi in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Third, Zhang Ling obtained 144 Volume Taiping East Ji Jing in Shun Di. The "Taiping Jing" we are talking about here is "Taiping Ching Ling Shu". The Taiping Jing was first recorded by Ye Fan in the later Han Dynasty. "The Biography of Xiang Kai in the Later Han Dynasty" said that it was nine years (AD 166), and Xiang Kai wrote: I have been to Langxie Palace before, and I worshipped (Ganji), which is unclear. Xiang Kai Zhuan also said: At the beginning of Shun Di, the Langxie Palace paid homage to Yi Que, and its owner was 170 volumes of Quyang Spring Divine Books in Jide, all of which were pale essences, Zhu Jie, Qingshou and Zhu Mu, with the title "Taiping Qing Ling Shu". Li Xian, King of the Tang Dynasty in Zhang Huai, said: Nerve is a peaceful classic of Taoism today. Each part of its classics is 17 volumes. According to Li Xian, the holy book is Taiping Jing. This divine book was obtained by Yu Ji from Quyangquan, but it did not say when and by whom. Ge Hong of the State of Jin told the immortals in fairy tales. He said: Gong Song (that is, Gong Chong) is also an evil person. As a literary genius, he wrote more than 100 books. Learn from the immortal Yu Ji. During the Han and Yuan Dynasties, Song Sui Ji met an immortal in Quyang Spring and presented Qing Ji Zhu Xi with ten volumes of Taiping Jing. If you are lucky, you will be able to pay for it. It is obviously impossible to say that Taiping Jing was taught by immortals. Tang Wang Songnian quoted the lost article of Fairy Biography in the volume of Fairy Garden Weaving Beads, saying that Yu Ji was also from Beihai. I have been suffering from boils for several years, and all kinds of medicines can't cure it. I saw a drug seller in the city, and because I went to study, I gave me two volumes of vegetarian books, saying,' This book will not only recover, but also live forever.' Ji accepted it, but it was also the Taiping Jing. The cure of the disease is above the peak of Diaotai Township in Shangyu, performance 170. In other words, Yu Ji got two volumes of Su Shu from silks, namely Taiping Jing, which was perfumed into 170 volumes by himself. However, the origin of the two volumes of Sihe Sushu is not explained. The preface to the Taiping Classic in the Tang Dynasty initiated the teaching process of "Tai Shang Huang, Tian Di, Tai Shang Huang" in Taiping Classic ... and made a code to instruct him to teach and pretend to be a Taiping Classic. First, the boy scouts of Qing Xiang, then Hebo, a disciple of Wang Jun and Wang Jun, and Yu Ji, a disciple of Hebo. At the beginning of Ji's illness, there was almost no cure, so he sought medical advice. Hebo told me: I handed down your Taiping Wen, but because it was easy to change it into 170 volume, it was compiled into 360 chapters, spread all over the world and awarded to a wise monarch, which led to peace in the world, not only recovery, but also peace in the world. Yu Ji teaches, studies the essence and applies it to teaching. The "Taiping Wen" mentioned here is the two volumes of "Su Shu" mentioned in "Fairy Biography". As can be seen from the above, Taiping Jing was not written by one person at a time, but it was brewed for a long time from the end of the Western Han Dynasty to Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At the same time, Taiping Jing has a certain relationship with the other two Taiping Jing in Han Dynasty. Let's first look at Gan Zhongke's "Tianguan Libaoyuan Taiping Jing". According to Li Han Xunzhuan, when Gan Zhongke proclaimed himself emperor, he faked twelve volumes of Tianguan Baoliyuan Taiping Jing to say that the Han family met the end of heaven and earth and was more affected by destiny. Do what Xia, a disciple of Zhongke, said to the declining emperor: The decline of the Han Dynasty should be more orderly. Being an emperor should not be a destiny, so he is the absolute heir. Now your majesty has been ill for a long time, and the mutation is repeated. Therefore, it is urgent to change his name, so that he can live longer, have a prince and suffer different disasters. And so on, Xiang Kai wrote: The former public worshiped the holy book, devoted himself to serving the world, followed the five elements, and also had the skill of rejuvenating the country and the descendants. It can be seen that the two statements are quite similar. Ganzhongke's book taught me how to make real people have red sperm in the name of God. Taiping Ching Ling Shu takes God and Taishang Laojun as the highest gods, and most of its contents are narrated in the form of questions and answers between God and six real people. The forms of the two are basically the same. Judging from the birthplace of Gan Zhongke, Yu Ji and Gong, their regions are similar. These explanations show that 170' s Taiping Ching Ling Shu was developed from 12' s Bao Jingyuan. Regarding the relationship between Taipingqing Lingshu and Taipingdong, according to the records in An Daoism, Zhang Daoling presented Taipingdong 144, which may be another copy of Taipingqing Lingshu. Zhang Song Fang Jun's series "Seven Signs of Yun Qi" is also said along this line of thinking, and frankly: A and B/KOOC-0/0/70 volumes were all completed in this world. According to Zheng Yijing's cloud, "Tai Ping Dong Ji Jing" has a total of 144 volumes, and now this classic has almost dried up in exile. The Second Classics are not Meiji Daoism, but also proving fruit, modifying causes, avoiding taboos and various techniques. It can be seen that the contents of the two Taiping Jing are basically the same. Generally speaking, the book "Taiping Jing" is the book "Taiping Qing Ling Shu" in the Han Dynasty, which was later compiled into the Taoist Collection. Now it is incomplete, the original book 170 volumes, only 57 volumes left. Mr. Wang Ming, a modern man, compiled Taiping Jing Social School on the basis of the existing Taoist collection and Taiping Jing and referring to 27 kinds of quotations such as Taiping Jing Chao. In Two Notes to Old Xiangzi, the scripture holds that doing nothing is doing something, inheriting the thought of doing nothing in Tao Te Ching, holding that doing nothing is Tao, not evil, and that "everything in the world must do nothing, keep it simple, and be in harmony with Tao", and the state of doing nothing is like a baby. "Babies do nothing, so they are in harmony with the Tao." However, if you don't know self-control, you will be old if you know a little. ""Specializing in inaction, morality is often inseparable, but also a treasure. The Taiping Island Classic wrote: "The nature of heaven and earth is suitable for all things. Let him do what he can. What you can't do can't be strong. " "Inaction" and "Tao" are interlinked. In ancient times, "governing by doing nothing" was because "getting the meaning of Tao and getting the heart of heaven". If people can "do nothing", they can have bodies; Going to the end of the original, the suffering of the Tao is also. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, the thought of inaction became the basis of Taoist social view and Taoist cultivation of immortals. There is a saying in Seven Clouds, Volume 90, Seven Words: "Insist on morality, save the chance of survival, do nothing for the victims, do nothing for the teachers, be silent and right, as for doing nothing. At the beginning of Taiping, it is indispensable to go to the Ming Dynasty, to be complete, to go to danger, and to leave the blame. " Therefore, the victims, teachers and the whole body need to be governed by inaction, which is the outline of Ge Hong, a "moral" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who thinks that "Heaven does nothing, let nature take its course, no relatives, no friends and no such thing". He criticized that "although Zhong Ni is sacred to the world, he can't calm Xuan Mo, and he is complacent", and said that Laozi once admonished Confucius: "A good man hides Xu Ruo, a gentleman is virtuous, and his appearance is not good. Apart from your arrogance and lust, your attitude and lust are not good for your son. " At the same time, Ge Hong also believes that the method of seeking immortality should also be "silent and inaction, forgetting its shape". Tao Hongjing's "True Letters Patent" in the Qi and Liang Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties pointed out that "the joys and sorrows are detrimental to one's ambition, the splendor is chaotic, and both yin and yang are exhausted, all of which are taboos of learning the Tao and diseases of immortals", and "the road to immortality is the career of life", which means "knowing without doing, walking without leaving". There is a saying in The Journey to the West that "Tao is inaction, and virtue is benevolence". Wei Chu-Xuan wrote: "Tao has no body, doing nothing and doing everything, so it is the most important person in the world." He put "inaction" at the top of heaven and earth. The Sutra of Ascension to Heaven also says, "People can't do nothing for nothing, and if they don't want to be in the Tao, the Tao will return to itself." "If they don't cultivate themselves, they will all become ruins." Xu Daomiao noted: "Cleanliness and inaction, moral cultivation and harmony have been restored, so the remains have also been preserved." After Jin and Yuan Dynasties, some Taoist Quanzhen schools discussed inaction and promising from the difference between heaven and humanity. Think: "inaction, heaven is also;" Promising people are also humane. Doing nothing under the same sky and doing something with the same people. If people are carrying things, they will stop at both ends, but when they take off one end, they will be biased. " Then he said that if both ends are out of the burden, they will return to their original state. Some CF States from the perspective of existence: "without it, the trance state is wonderful;" Flexibility is also reasonable for people. "In the" Jiao Xuan Case ",he criticized the saying that" inaction "is regarded as" a folk puppet, which can't be pushed open, can't be called or forced to move, but it is a thing ",and praised" inaction "as" more expensive than a little cleverness, a robber, lively splash, unintentional, and stop moving to make up for the nature of all things ". "Tao Shu" Volume 12 "Da Dan Pian" said that "Yi Chengzi meets people, saying: The way of inaction is nothing more than the elixir, and the way to get it depends on the golden symbol. Later generations of Neidan even called the skill of internal cultivation "inaction" based on "promising". Editor's View on this passage There is a poem in Zhang Boduan's Wuzhen Chapter in Song Dynasty: "No one knows what you did at the beginning, only you didn't do anything, you will know. "But seeing inaction and doing nothing, I know that doing something is fundamental." There is also a poem in Xiao Tingzhi's "Then Great Collection": "Realizing inaction and doing something, practicing subtlety and being willing to learn. Several times the sun and the moon stood on the beach, and they went straight to catch the black turtle. " Neidan scholars call the state of returning to the sky after alchemy "inaction" and the process of cultivation "promising". Liu, a famous Taoist priest and Neidan family in the Qing Dynasty, criticized some Neidan families for treating some specific operation methods as "promising", such as "Meridian luck, running a river car, the intersection of heart and kidney, supervising the meeting, gathering qi behind the head and rushing to the top of the door". He thought: "There are more than a thousand such people. Although the roads are different, they are all one, so there is a long way to go." Liu also criticized "raising Huang Ting, thinking? Some specific operation methods, such as door-opening, nose-thinking, hall-watching or navel-guarding, are all considered as "doing nothing", and they think: "There are more than 1,000 such people, although they have different intentions, they are all the same when they are empty, so doing nothing has many mistakes. Liu believes that "promising" means "not forcing others to do something". "Edit this paragraph to appreciate that beggars have been buried since birth, and their lives are not practical. If you can't transplant it back, how can you prolong your life and complete the road? Those who are promising, those who want to go, and those who want to come back. This is the way to steal yin and yang, seize nature and kill again and again "; And "the so-called inaction, not dead wood and ashes." If you can't take it out with the real cover, you must take it in a fake way. If you have got it, you should go back to the beginning. The urgent task is to seal it tightly, wash it warm and guard it against danger, so as to preserve this original and avoid the risk of losing it. "Of course, in the order of practice, Liu believes that we should" seek the way of doing something first, then the way of doing nothing, and more importantly, the way of doing nothing, then the matter of fixing truth can be fully realized. "Beggars have been buried since they were born, and their lives are not practical. If they can't plant the method of reversion, how can they prolong their life and complete the road?
