    Dapuhua came to the second floor of Yuhuang Pavilion, opened the door and walked in.

    But seeing that the hall was full of faithful men and women, Dapuhua found a space and sat down quietly.  Finding that the ground is warm, I thought to myself: No wonder I chose to lecture on the second floor, so it¡¯s not cool to sit on it!

    [1] "Tao Te Ching" Taoism

    Anonymous, the beginning of heaven and earth;

    Famous, the mother of all things.

    Therefore, always have no desire to observe its beauty;

    Always have a desire to observe its essence.

    These two come from the same place but have different names, and they are both called Xuan.

    Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders.

    Daochang Li walked up to the podium hale and hearty from the cabin on the left front.

    As soon as she sat down, she opened her mouth and said: "I saw that the people sitting under the altar are all handsome men and beautiful women. Only a poor person will know that today is Valentine's Day."

    The people under the altar smiled happily.

    Li Daochang went on to say: "The 'poverty' of being poor is not the poverty of morality and wisdom, but the poverty of mouth."

    The old Taoist priest, who is always serious, actually made a joke today. This is something that has never happened before, and everyone couldn't help laughing.

    "What are you going to talk about today?" Li Daochang also said with a smile, "Otherwise, why not talk about love today?"

    The believers stared wide-eyed, looking at the white-haired old priest on the pulpit, thinking she was joking.

    Just listen to Li Daochang saying solemnly: "The theme of Pindao's talk today is-the wisdom of love from the "Tao Te Ching"."

    When everyone heard this, they couldn't help applauding, and even the ladies under the altar forgot their former restraint.

    "Hey~ Taoist temple is a pure place, don't make any noise!" The Taoist priest signaled not to applaud.

    Everyone immediately put down their hands, but whispered again.

    "The poor Taoist knows what everyone is talking about. You may wonder, an old Taoist priest who has never experienced marriage talks about love. Wouldn't it be ridiculous Do you think so?" Li Daochang stretched his neck and asked everyone, "There is a common saying.  The old man also said, "If you have no desire, you can see its beauty; if you always have desire, you can see its beauty. Therefore, if I talk about the way of love, I may be able to say one or two things."

    Everyone looked at the old Taoist priest on the altar with expectant eyes, only Dapuhua was wandering around touching his sweetheart.  He vaguely noticed that there was a beautiful blue dress flickering from time to time in the gap in the hut that grew out of the old Taoist, and he was sure that it must be her.  Because in this Taoist temple, only the color of her clothes is different from others. This is a Taoist robe specially customized for her by Daoist Li

    The voice of Li Laodao's lecture sounded again: "What is love? This is indescribable. Lao Tzu said at the beginning, 'Tao can be said, but it is very Tao; name can be named, but it is very famous.' This is the "Tao Te Ching"  "The answer given in.

    In other words, the love that can be expressed in words is limited and cannot stand the test of time.

    Two people who really love each other have a certain tacit understanding in their words and deeds.  Even if you don't deliberately express your feelings, the other party can feel the warmth that the other party brings to you from the details of life, thus generating the idea of ??sympathy and hope to join hands with the other party and spend the rest of your life together.

    So, how did love begin?

    It is the heartbeat when we first met, this is the bud of love.  From then on, that person is a concern deep in your heart.  Whether it's a man or a woman, they will stand on the other side's side, take care of his (her) feelings, and gradually walk into the other side's heart with actions that know the cold and the hot.  "

    Chapter 29 of the "Tao Te Ching" also said: It is the sage to go to extremes, extravagance, and Thailand.

    What does this sentence mean?  What does it have to do with love?  Simply put, people should abandon all extreme, extravagant and excessive things.

    Those who really understand this world will know these truths and will not go to extremes.  Nothing is absolute, and it cannot affect other people because of self-interest.  Even if you like it, you can't be extravagant. You should let nature take its course, make the best use of the situation, and keep yourself safe.  Presumptuousness will only lead to bad results; restraint can lead to long-term peace and stability.  This is true in society, and even more so in love.

    Therefore, love must be reserved.

    In the busy world of mortals, only by fate will we meet each other.  Two people who love each other will mostly have romantic feelings. I hope that in the next few days, the two parties can write romantic love poems together and live a warm and comfortable life.

    You have love, I have intention, that kind of affectionate fate, there is no need for both parties to deliberately mention it, just need to stand on the lover's side after holding hands, and take care of each other's feelings with actions that know the cold and the hot,  It will allow the flower of love between two people to bloom for a long time.Women who do various things.  They are Taoist, Nun, and Gua Gu; the sixth women are Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Master, Godly Woman, Medicine Woman, and Steady Woman.

    This is the prevalence of Cheng-Zhu Confucianism, and the oppression of women has reached the peak of history.  The social status of the three aunts and six wives was low at that time, which led to the people of later generations using the three aunts and six wives to demean women.

    (2) "Women's Crown" is not a title, but an honorific title

    "Nvguan" is a unique title of respect for female priests in Taoism. In ancient times, there was a custom of crowning adult men, but women did not have the right to crown.  Taoism advocates equality between men and women, and both men and women have the right to crown ceremony.  Because in the Tang Dynasty, many women entered Taoist temples to practice in order to perform crown ceremonies.  They all wear yellow crowns, because ordinary women do not have crowns, but only Taoist priests have crowns, and the word "female crown" comes from this.  Therefore, in Taoism, female Taoist priests also use the term female crown to express it, but it usually does not appear as a spoken language.

    (3) How to call a female Taoist priest

    In Taoist culture, both male and female Taoist priests are collectively referred to as Taoist priests, immortal priests, etc. If you know the surname, you can just add the surname.  In Quanzhen Buddhism, male Taoist priests are called Qiandao, and female Taoist priests are called Kundao, in order to promote equality between men and women.

    Many friends often use the word Taoist when they meet female Taoist priests. As everyone knows, this is an act of extreme disrespect for female Taoist priests.  You can call her a female crown, or a fairy aunt.  The Taoist leader is the leader of the Taoist priests, and he is honored as the immortal leader.  However, ordinary Taoist priests can also respect the Taoist priest.

    (4) About Taoist priests

    There is a difference between Taoist priests who become monks and those who do not.  Before the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, there were Taoist priests who did not leave home, and there was no Taoist priest who had to become a monk.  After the establishment of the Quanzhen Sect in the Jin Dynasty, the system of becoming a monk was formulated.

    However, Taoist priests at that time were divided into two schools: Quanzhen and Zhengyi.

    The Quanzhen sect is a Taoist priest who does not get married, is a vegetarian, and lives in a Taoist temple.  The male is a Taoist priest, and the female is a fairy girl. Both have long hair, which is tied on the top of the head into a bun and can be worn with a crown. The male Taoist has a beard.

    There is a group of Taoist priests who can marry and eat meat.  Most of them are Taoist priests who do not leave home, also known as Taoist priests who live in the fire, and a small number are Taoist priests who become monks.  Some of the orthodox Taoist priests who do not leave home are active in temples, and some do not have temples and are scattered Taoist priests.  Scattered Taoist priests without temples usually wear ordinary clothes and live at home.  Just as Taoist priests are mostly men, they do not have long hair or beards, and their hairstyles are the same as those of ordinary people.  When they don't wear Taoist attire, they can't be seen as Taoist priests.

    There are many differences between the Quanzhen School and the Zhengyi School in terms of teaching methods and rituals.  For example, the Quanzhen sect practices inner alchemy, and the Taoist priests of the Zheng sect use spells in scriptures and repentance.  There are even more differences in the rituals, the focus of the practices and the ancestors they respect.  For example, the disciples of the Zhengyi School have to be conferred to become qualified Taoist priests; while the disciples of the Quanzhen School are required to be conferred the precepts.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
