Chapter 89
Three generations of sects
Soon, the morning class was over, and everyone went to have breakfast first.
At the end of the Chen hour, the disciples went to the Chongyang Hall one after another. According to the convention, Taoist masters who traveled from the clouds or who had profound Taoism began to recite prayers.
The seven sons of Quanzhen opened the altar and asked for a master, that is, Wang Chongyang.
Today, the ancestor Wang Chongyang may have a lot of work. He recited scriptures and prayed before just telling the master to get up and wash up first. Now is the official beginning of work.
So you need to pray again and tell the ancestor that you must have finished your work and now you are about to start working!
After the seven sons of Quanzhen finished, the Taoist master who had traveled here began to recite the next prayer.
The prayer was written by Danyangzi Ma Yu, probably to tell his master that he has worked diligently since he ascended the throne, and has now completed his current task... It is a bit similar to his own summary report on abdication.
You see, your disciples are all inside and outside the hall, you can see the results of your disciples! I am also very old and have reached the age of retirement, so I came to tell my master:
I have chosen you a good disciple who is one in a million. I have a good understanding, a pure character, a righteous virtue, inherit the teachings, be harmonious with the same school, and benevolent to the common people. I am definitely a good guy.
Look, if I have no objection, then I will pass on the position of the head of the third generation of Quanzhen to your disciple-in-law-the surname Qiu, name Zhiqing, and name Chonghe!
After saying that, Qiu Zhiqing came forward, and the two of them kowtowed at the statue of the ancestor together, and then knelt down and did not get up.
Looking up at the ancestor's eyes, letting the ancestor see himself clearly, it can also be said to open his inner world to show openness.
This is called asking the heart. If you still have worries in your heart at this time, you can leave as soon as possible. It is still time to regret it!
After about a cup of tea, a sound of awakening bronze chime sounded, and the Taoist sect masters who were wandering in the clouds began to step forward.
At this time, Ma Yu did not casually wear a Taoist bun with a wooden hairpin like usual, but instead tidied it up neatly and wore a bamboo hibiscus crown (lotus crown) representing the head of Quanzhen.
The Taoist gentry master who presided over the ceremony took off the bamboo carved Shangqing hibiscus crown from Ma Yu's head, and then helped Ma Yu replace the bamboo carved Five Mountains crown with the same style as the other Quanzhen Liuzi, and handed over the wooden pallet containing the Shangqing hibiscus crown.
To Ma Yu.
Ma Yu took the tray, stood up, and then stood between Qiu Zhiqing and the statue of the ancestor, looked at Qiu Zhiqing, and asked about the Quanzhen precepts one by one, just like when he was an apprentice to his master.
Every time Ma Yu said something, Qiu Zhiqing would answer: "It's safe!"
When the precepts were asked, Ma Yu handed the tray to someone else, stepped forward and took off Qiu Zhiqing's hairpin, disassembled Qiu Zhiqing's dao bun, helped him meticulously organize it again, put on the Qing hibiscus crown, this is
Inheritance!
Looking at his disciple in front of him, Ma Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion while looking at his eyes. Then he helped Qiu Zhiqing up and slowly walked to the queue of the Qizi Quanzhen...
When Qiu Zhiqing turned around, Ma Yu took the lead in making the Taoist seal and saluted: "We have met the leader, and I wish to pass on the inheritance forever and the Taoist energy will last!"
The other six sons of Quanzhen also politely said: "We have met the head teacher, and I wish to pass on the inheritance forever and the Taoist energy will last!"
All the disciples: "We have met the leader, and I wish to pass on the inheritance forever and the Taoist energy will last!"
Qiu Zhiqing also made the Taoist seal with his hand and replied: "Chenghe thanks to Master, thanks to all the masters, thanks to all the masters and brothers, I wish the Quanzhen Sect to be harmonious, inherited forever, and the Taoist energy will last!"
...
At this point, the ceremony of passing on the throne has been completed, and the seven sons of Quanzhen returned to their respective positions!
The Taoist priest who presided over the ceremony began to recite the prayer again. This time it was written by Qiu Zhiqing. The general meaning was to thank the teachers for their education and upbringing and trust in their disciples.
Finally, I will tell the ancestor that the matter is not over yet. Don’t leave first, and work harder. There are still things you need to check in the future.
Next, Qiu Zhiqing took action and gave the six chiefs of the Five Pavilions and One Hall, as well as the twelve deputys, the Five Mountains, which means that they have entered the Tao and can open the mountain and accept disciples!
Then, Chen Zhiyi, the head of the Taolu Pavilion, took his two deputy, to wear a sect's sect who had entered the Taoist sect. Only then did the Quanzhen Sect complete the internal power change.
Then another prayer was burned to the ancestor, which roughly means: No matter how hard you work, your four generations of disciples here will be freshly released, so you will always check it out...
In order to avoid trouble and to be fair, Qiu Zhiqing was unable to accept disciples, but many of his fellow disciples reached the level of accepting disciples.
In fact, Quanzhen doesn’t really advocate everyone to enter the Tao unless you really have perseverance and perseverance! Otherwise, the Zhongshen Pavilion is also a good place to go.
Of course, if you want to enter the Tao, your parents must agree.
To draw on the words of Master Ge Hongtian in his "Baopuzi·Nian Pian", it means: If you want to practice the path of immortality, you must first practice the path of humanity. There are no unfilial gods in the world! Practicing filial piety is also a good deed, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve perfection of merit.
Finally, the process of taking disciples was completed, Qiu Zhiqing stood at the top, followed by the Seven Sons of Quanzhen, followed by the head of the Five Pavilions and One Hall, and finally the inner disciples and outer disciples, with nearly a thousand people starting
Farewell to the ancestor.
So the Taoist Priest began to recite the last prayer, which roughly means: I'll trouble the ancestors to come here today. Thank you for your hard work! The disciples respectfully send it, remember to come back to have the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening.
Don’t stay home, come down to see if you have time, and bless your disciples...
Note: The above ritual is purely fictional, don’t kill, thank you!
Since then, Qiu Zhiqing has become the head of the Quanzhen Sect for three generations, but it seems that there is no difference. He still teaches the same thing, reading scriptures, discussing Taoism, and all matters in the teaching have long been divided by him, and he does not need to worry too much.
The Shangqing Furong Crown, which represents the head teacher, has also returned to her previous treatment - eating ashes in the cabinet, I am afraid that there will be some major activity before I will take it out and wipe it.
The next day, everyone saw the new leader of the throne, dressed up again, which was not surprising. However, Zhao Zhijing and others met three or two, including the leader, and some of the chief officials did not wear any crowns. It was just simple.
After taking a Taoist bun, he took off the Taoist crown with embarrassment.
Qiu Zhiqing shook his head after knowing this. He felt that it was not necessary. You just need to wear it. Why bother too much about others' opinions?
In fact, most of them just think wearing a crown is troublesome, so it is better to just put on a Taoist bun...
But what’s interesting is that Zhao Zhijing, who had sent him to deliver a letter before he went down the mountain. He thought he would stay in Dengzhou, so he stayed at his master and Wang’s place.
But unexpectedly, this guy was not welcomed by his own Yushan Sect. It was fine at first, but later, he often found fault with Shen Zhifan there.
Even his master Wang Chu could not bear to see it, so his master sent him to Hengshan to deliver a letter to his master Tan Chudu.
Wang Chuyi, who had only wanted to be purified for a while, did not expect that Zhao Zhijing would run back to Zhongnan Mountain Chongyang Palace from Hengshan again...
This made Qiu Zhiqing, who knew the situation was going on after he came back, was a little amused and laughed. What made Qiu Zhiqing even more amused was that he had a junior brother before, who was also Qiu Chuji's disciple.
I have always heard them call him Bing and Bing before. According to their seniority, his name is Zhi Bing. It was nothing, and he didn't think much about it, but this time I found out that his surname was Zhen...
Zhen Zhibing, Yin Zhiping, Zhao Zhijing, can't this be a joke?
Of course, these are all small things. The important thing is to continue to improve the inheritance of Quanzhen Sect. The most urgent task is to organize the internal and external cultivation system and Quanzhen Mind System.
Quanzhen focuses on the cultivation of internal alchemy, that is, practice qi only to refine the spirit. What is the current mainstream of Quanzhen? Now Quanzhen is that as long as you understand the small Zhoutian, you will start practicing internal alchemy.
Then Xiao Zhoutian practiced the same technique with the inner alchemy, and the result was that the struggles in the martial arts world were generally not very good. So, take the examples of Master and Apprentice Qiu Zhiqing and Ma Yu.
Ma Yu's method is to achieve the small circulation of the Ren and Du meridians, and he began to practice the inner alchemy while taking into account the practice of the Great Zhoutian!
Even later, he almost gave up the Great Zhoutian and focused on practicing inner alchemy.
There is nothing wrong with this. When they became a disciple of Wang Chongyang, they were generally older, even the youngest Qiu Chuji and Wang Chuyi were already twenty years old.
So they all started practicing the inner alchemy after initially understanding the small Zhoutian. The result was not bad, but it was a bit unfavorable for Quanzhen Taoism to gain a foothold in this troubled world.
On the contrary, Qiu Zhiqing was just the opposite. He was exposed to internal alchemy very early, but he actually practiced internal alchemy only after he completely formed a cycle of the cycle in the eight extraordinary meridians.
What we are talking about here is not about running the Zhoutian when meditating, but about the "Quanzhenxin Method" that all walks, sits and lying around the eight extraordinary meridians. It took him about eight years to use this step.
Then he began to practice inner alchemy. After five years, he entered the first realm - inner vision!
Then, with the blessing of "Inner Vipassana" and the help of "Zixia Gong", it took him seven years to penetrate all the twelve serious merits and operate them on his own!
An internal force operation mode is formed that uses the weather after the small circumference and the innate weather to drive the innate weather of the large circumference. When the large and large circumferences are connected and operate on their own, the first innate energy will be found.
At the same time, under the stimulation of the first innate energy, he entered the second realm and awakened the soul.
He also took advantage of this innate energy to officially start practicing "Innate Ability"! Some people have their own innate energy, so they can directly skip their previous practice and directly practice "Innate Ability".
This is actually nothing wrong, and it can even be said to be a gifted person. Of course, there is a prerequisite for this, that is, you must first understand the big and small cycles, and then practice the inner alchemy technique.
Otherwise, the physical burden will be too great. If you get hurt from time to time, the consequences will be...
This is why the Qi Zi of Quanzhen can clearly operate his own mind and practice continuously, but he feels not very powerful, because their true energy is used as firewood for practicing inner alchemy...
Thank you for your support. Today’s second update is here. Yin Zhiping is a real person in the Taoist sect. Let Zhen Zhibing take the blame!
