Isn’t this Pangu’s job?

Then the primitive Taoist guys were grunting for a long time, and righteously said that Pangu was transformed by Laojun. Later, Laojun turned into Xuanyuan, turned into Huangdi, and turned into Laozi during the Spring and Autumn Period...

As for Laojun's eighty-one incarnation, it was about to reach the end of the Western Jin Dynasty. At that time, Taoist Wang Fu and the monk Bo Yuan, who was a nobleman, had a debate, but they lost many times. In desperation, they forged the "Laozi's Sutra of Transformation of Hu" and claimed that Laozi traveled west and was reborn as Shakyamuni Buddha. Buddhists were not willing to be outdone, and claimed that Laozi was actually a disciple of the Buddha. Both sides immediately began to "maximize" and everything was transformed.

Fei Qian was not so bad. At that time, he proposed that the confusion of the specific statues of the Taoist gods and the Taoist god system in primitive Taoism was not conducive to the development of religion. The more Laojun transformed, the more complicated the system was, and even various contradictions appeared between them. The simpler the one, the more pure the faith was. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, the five-way God Church was proposed. On the one hand, it was combined with some foundations of primitive Taoism, and on the other hand, it was simple and easy to implement.

The eighty-one incarnation of Laojun, such a complex process and so many complicated incarnations, really, is it that it is to think of which class in the feudal dynasty that can be remembered? That’s right, only children of the gentry who know the words and have mastered a certain amount of knowledge can understand it, and understand the various ins and outs of the eighty-one incarnation, or understand the plot of the story.

But this is equivalent to the Taoism’s goal positioning at the beginning. To accommodate believers of such gentry children, it is actually just a stake with Confucianism. How could it be that Confucianism, which had been deployed for a long time after taking action?

For example, when I was preaching, there was something else that could not be called the name of God in the five directions. This was simply an idea that Bangmao came up with. What Fei Qian wanted was a dignified sect, not a secret cult in private. Most of them were used to being persecuted and those who were ready to run away at any time could come up with such a model.

Because there is no key points for standardized missionary preaching and no specific goals are found, Taoism did not develop well in the later stages of China, and even Buddhism could not even overcome it. The root of it is here. After Buddhism was introduced to China, it immediately turned around and went downward, and then came up with a set of templates for enlightenment of mind, and even lost the meaning of the sutra. With just one sentence, "I have a destiny to be with my Buddha" becomes...

Fei Qian corrected such problems one by one, so he did not have time to involve the aspects of Taoist scriptures.

Now that Fei Qian has developed a new system of the Five God Cult, the development of Taoism has expanded rapidly. Whether it is the preaching of Taoism itself or the belief of ordinary people, it is more convenient, faster and more effective than the original model.
