Chapter 1573

The game world is in chaos, with constant wars. Except for the harsh winter, wars are basically going on.

Either here or there.

War is not just war on the battlefield.

It also includes a war of ideas.

Game natives, as well as people from ancient times, have rather old-fashioned ideas.

Although there are hundreds of schools of thought carrying out enlightenment thoughts.

But most people’s thoughts are still relatively deep-rooted.

Confucianism, medicine, Mohism, Legalism, novelists, miscellaneous schools, three religions, Taoism, and Buddhism, they all have their own purposes.

Confucianism, in particular, has the most schools.

Confucianism has a lineage with Confucius and Mencius, and another lineage with Xunzi. Xunzi had two disciples - Han Fei and Li Si.

Xunzi's two disciples were both outstanding figures in Legalism.

But Xunzi didn't care at all.

As long as it benefits humanity.

Xunzi's open-mindedness is far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

In addition, Dong Zhongshu has a branch, Wang Yangming has a branch, and Wen Tianxiang has a small branch.

Wen Tianxiang inherited from Mencius and practiced"Haoran Zhengqi".

Establish your mind for heaven and earth.

Representatives of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism are of the same lineage.

Their purpose is naturally Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism.

Confucianism is huge.

Of course, other genres are not small either.

Players and game characters are different.

Players are more advanced in their thinking.

Sometimes, they are not even tolerated by the game characters, thinking that they are deviant.

The ideological war is caused by some people setting up some sects with the help of emancipating their minds.

To satisfy one's own selfishness.

For example, the"White Lotus Sect" has become a phenomenon now.

The White Lotus Sect was born out of Buddhism.

In the process of the development and growth of the White Lotus Sect, no one knows whether there is a shadow of Buddhism in it.

The White Lotus Sect is also very famous in history and has a long history.

The White Lotus Sect is a secret religious association that has spread among the people since the Tang and Song Dynasties. It originated from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism. According to legend, Shi Huiyuan, the founder of the Pure Land Sect in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, formed the White Lotus Society with Liu Yimin and others at Donglin Temple in Lushan Mountain to recite Buddha's name together. It was regarded as a role model for later generations of believers.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, pure land Buddhist associations became popular and were often called White Lotus Society or Lotus Society.

During the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty, Mao Ziyuan, a monk from Kunshan in Wu County, founded a new sect based on the popular Pure Land Society, called the White Lotus Sect, or White Lotus Sect.

It is roughly the same as the Pure Land Sect, which worships Amitabha and requires believers to recite the Buddha's name and observe precepts - not to kill, steal, engage in sexual misconduct, lie, or drink alcohol, in order to be reborn in the Western Pure Land.

Mao Ziyuan used Tiantai religious principles to draw the"Selected Buddha Pictures of the Four Lands and Three Views", using Buddha statues, graphics and metaphors to explain the heights of the Buddha lands; he simplified and unified the Buddha chanting and repentance rituals made by predecessors, and produced the"White Lotus Morning Repentance Ceremony".

In the previous Pure Land societies, participants only had a loose friendship relationship and did not belong to each other. Mao Ziyuan changed it to master-disciple transmission and sect affiliation. He built the White Lotus Confession Hall in Dianshan Lake, called himself a teacher, and sat in front of the audience to worship. He also required his disciples to name them after the four characters"Pujue Miaodao", thus establishing a relatively stereotyped sect.

The early White Lotus Sect was officially banned, and Mao Ziyuan was exiled to Jiangzhou. However, it spread because of its simple teachings and simple practice.

As of the late Southern Song Dynasty, although it was still regarded as an"evil party" by some local officials and Buddhist monks who regarded themselves as orthodox, the practice had been spread everywhere, even as far as the north under Mongolian rule.

After the unification of the Yuan Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect was recognized and rewarded by the court and entered its heyday.

Donglin Temple in Lushan and Bailian Hall in Dianshan Lake were the two centers of the White Lotus Sect in the Yuan Dynasty.

The White Lotus Sect, with the motto of"universalizing pure and faithful people at home", has formed a large number of professional believers with families, called White Lotus Taoists.

Because he"becomes a monk at home" and does not shave his hair or wear monk's robes, he is also called an unshaved Taoist or a monk with hair.

In the Yuan Dynasty, nunneries composed of Bailian Taoists were spread all over the north and south, with hundreds of followers and dozens of followers. Their scale was comparable to Buddhist temples and Taoist temples. The nunnery houses Buddha statues such as Amitabha, Avalokitesvara, and Mahasthamaprapta. The upper part is used for royal blessings and longevity prayers, and the lower part is used to host local Buddhist services. There are also some charitable deeds such as building roads and bridges. Many nunneries own land assets, and the host often inherits the property from father to son, passing it on from generation to generation. The property of the nunnery is actually the family property of the host. Some top Taoists colluded with the government, made friends with powerful people, and became local tyrants.

Later, the development of White Lotus Sect became more and more distorted.

In the end, it became an evil organization.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect developed rapidly again, fought against foreigners, and launched the slogan"Support the Qing Dynasty and destroy the foreigners".

The White Lotus Sect had shown signs of appearing in the Yun Kingdom.

But he was discovered by Six Doors.

Zhuge Zheng and I reported it to Lu Yan.

After Lu Yan knew the news, he immediately issued an order to destroy Zhuge Zhengwo.

"The"White Lotus Sect" was destroyed as soon as it appeared in the Yun Kingdom.

After that, the White Lotus Sect never appeared in the Yun Kingdom again.

Even if it existed, it might have gone underground and did not dare to appear.

Lu Yan put the props book in his hand on the bookshelf on the first floor.

In addition, there are other prop books.

Before leaving, Lu Yan once again excused Xiao Chunzi and asked him to find him after finishing writing.

And he, accompanied by Wei Zhongxian and others, went to the harem.

There, a stunning beauty was waiting for him.
