After cleaning up briefly, Zhang Xin came to Sucheng Qingfeng Temple to meet Songfeng Daochang.
“Master, isn’t Longhushan the Taoist ancestral court? Why is the religious convention held there? How do I remember that it was held in the capital before?”
Mr. Matsukaze explained: “The five-year religious convention is a major event in our religious world. It is natural that the organizer solicits the opinions of the following member units to select the venue of the conference. There are currently three candidates for the venue of the conference. The addresses are Songshan, Longhushan and Jingshi, which correspond to the Buddhist and Taoist families and the government. This year’s event happened to be our Taoist ancestors’ turn as the host.”
Zhang Xin said: “This is also in line with common sense. After all, the influential religious forces in the country are no more than the Buddhist and Taoist families. This also seems fair and does not allow people to see the official favoritism towards Buddhism and Taoism.”
“Hey, there may have been disputes between Buddhism and Taoism in the past, but in recent years, Buddhism and Taoism have all gone downhill. As science becomes popular, more and more people have sneered at our religion, especially young people. Even less religious. In everyone’s inherent impression, religion is feudal superstition. In the past, those swindlers who deceived under the guise of religion were very harmful.”
Zhang Xin is also silent in this situation. After all, for ordinary people, the pursuit of life is nothing more than wealth and status.
With the advancement of science and technology and the development of society, people’s lives are getting better and better, so there is not much demand for entrusting spiritual beliefs, and under the influence of science, everyone is more and more suspicious of the existence of gods and the like.
Metaphysics is like this. The more you doubt it, the less you believe it. Therefore, people are not as superstitious as before in these religions. Even Western Christianity has encountered such an embarrassing situation.
Therefore, the gradual decline of religion can be regarded as the choice of the trend of the times. Personal power cannot be stopped. Unless there is a real fairy goddess one day, this kind of thing based on consciousness will eventually disappear.
The next day, Songfeng Daochang took a few Taoist priests from Qingfeng Temple and Zhang Xin directly to Yingtan City, where Longhu Mountain is located, by high-speed rail, and then a special car has been arranged by the religious association.
Since it is a grand event in the religious world, almost all the people who came here in the past were religious people.
Among these people, about half of them are the same as Daochang Songfeng, wearing a robes. Of course, the monks are basically wearing monk robes.
This has a lot to do with the differences between Buddhist and Taoist canons.
As long as a monk is a monk, he must shave his head, even those professional monks have to do this.
In addition to some special schools of Taoism, most Taoist priests actually have other identities. There is no need to wear Taoist gowns all day long. Of course, you still need to wear them at the religious conference tomorrow.
Before reaching the destination along the way, people kept saying hello to Dao Matsukaze.
Zhang Xin asked in a low voice, “Master, I didn’t see it. You have a lot of contacts.”
Dao Songfeng said: “What’s the matter? Everyone is a religious person. Although China is big, there are only a few sects with Zheng Miaohong. Many people here have participated in many religious conferences. When I meet more, I will know each other.”
After a while, Daoist Songfeng specifically instructed Zhang Xin: “After the religious convention is over, you should not leave in a hurry. I will take you to meet some real seniors at that time.”
Zhang Xin agreed with an “um”.
He knew that Dao Matsukaze should officially introduce him to other practitioners. This was also his main purpose for agreeing Dao Matsukaze to come to participate in religious conventions. Otherwise, how could he participate in such a boring convention.
The bus drove all the way to Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion. On the way, it passed several tourist attractions. Many tour guides are leading their respective tour groups to visit various tourist attractions on Longhu Mountain.
Zhang Xin suddenly felt that there was a reason for the decline of the spiritual world.
Now not only the Taoist ancestral courtyard has been over-commercially developed, but also some other famous mountains and rivers have been developed and integrated by the local government. As a tourist attraction that can boost the economy, the government has spared no effort in this regard.
Gradually, some Taoist temples on these mountains also began to open their doors to start business, so wherever there will be real cultivation, these temples and Taoist temples are gradually being used as tools for making money, and the atmosphere of purity and tranquility is no longer in the past.
Mr. Song Feng said that nowadays, as long as there are real practitioners in the school, there are very few phoenixes and feathers. On the contrary, there are real practitioners in some unremarkable Taoist temples or temples in remote places.
Zhang Xin thought of Master Chen. He once drove Master Chen to Baiyun Temple, which was a bustling place in the city center.
As a result, Song Fengdao said, “Master Liaochen is an exception. To be precise, in this respect, Buddhism has an advantage over Taoism. Because Buddhism places the most emphasis on cultivating the mind, the true great virtues and monks of Buddhism are not. Ask where you are. Taoists tend to choose sparsely populated places to focus on cultivation because of their emphasis on pure and inaction.”
After the car reached Shangqing Town at the foot of Longhu Mountain, everyone walked along the stone road to Tianshifu.
Because these two days are a grand event in the religious world, the tourist attractions of Tianshifu that are usually open to the outside world are temporarily closed. Except for the invited religious people such as Zhang Xin, tourists from other places are not allowed to enter.
Zhang Xin followed behind Songfeng Daochang, and after checking the over-exposure, everyone was released.
Zhang Xin walked behind Songfeng Daochang and said in a low voice: “I always thought that the Tianshi Mansion was built on a mountain. UU reading www.uukanshu.com turned out to be in a small town at the foot of the mountain. Generally, Taoist temples are not very popular. Was it built on the mountain? For example, the Taoist temple of Wudang Mountain is on the mountain.”
Song Feng Daochang smiled, and said, “Tianshi Mansion is not comparable to ordinary Taoism. To be in charge of Tianshi Mansion is equivalent to being in charge of the world’s Taoism. To be precise, Tianshi Mansion is more like a kind of Taoism. How can an official institution be built on a mountain with inconvenient traffic.”
When I came to a big rock, I saw it was written in red vermilion lacquer: “Yongzhang Tianxia Taoism.”
Zhang Xin couldn’t help but said, “With this tone and boldness, it’s no wonder that the Heavenly Master’s Mansion is able to teach things through channels.”
Taoist Songfeng said: “You know, the Taoist Academy is just south of the town, facing the Tianshi Mansion, and the necessary procedures for graduating from the Taoism Academy are issued by the Tianshi Mansion. This power is in place. I don’t think people are in charge of teaching things. In terms of legal procedures, Taoist priests who don’t have salvation are wild Taoists, but the government does not recognize it. If you want salvation, you must accept the procedures of the Tianshifu.”
Daochang Matsukaze’s tone was very plain, and there seemed to be a trace of disdain mixed in it.
Zhang Xin quickly understood why Taoist Songfeng felt disdainful.
