Zhao Ran continued to look down and saw that the edict stipulated a five-year period for the implementation of this policy, which was divided into three steps.
The first step is to select a few county hospitals to try. In the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty, each of the two or three county monasteries that were not equipped with abbots was selected, and Huang Guan monks who were willing to serve as abbots were selected from the Taoist temples enshrined in the prefectures to take up this position. This stage lasts for one year. During this period, problems that arise during implementation will be investigated and improved before large-scale implementation.
The second step is to implement this measure to all county courts in the 13 provinces of Beijing and Beijing, focusing on county courts without abbots at first; county courts with abbots will not be changed for the time being. After the current abbot passes away or passes away, there will be no changes. Then choose a layman to serve as abbot, and the monks in the pavilion will gradually fill it. This stage lasted three years.
The third step, starting from the fifth year, will be fully implemented in palaces, provincial temples and even general temples. All abbots in the Shifang Jungle will be served by monks from the pavilion, and their ranks correspond to the three major realms.
??Next, the edict clarified the abbot's duties, which mainly include two. One is to preside over fasting rituals, and the other is to have a vote when discussing matters in the three capitals. At the same time, the edict stipulated the duties of the prison in more detail. Zhao Ran believed that this was a measure to worry about the abbot's interference in specific affairs. He not only understood but also agreed with this.
After reading it, Zhao Ran pondered for a long time and said: "From the perspective of Xiaodao, this strategy is very detailed and feasible, especially the five-year, three-step strategy, which can ensure the smooth transition of Shifang Forest as much as possible. Regarding the current abbot's handling, It also gives a buffer and reduces resistance. I don¡¯t have any more opinions on this aspect. But I still have some immature ideas, and I don¡¯t know whether to take it seriously or not.¡±
Zhang Yangming said: "Zhiran, please tell me, we are here just to hear your thoughts, don't have any worries."
Zhao Ran said: "Last year at the Zhenshi Hall meeting, Jing Zhimo's original intention may not have been good, but I think several of the issues he raised are still worthy of attention. Due to their status and Taoist responsibilities, it is easy for the monks in the pavilion to get involved in the discussion. At this time, an authoritative situation is formed. There is no pure gold, and no one is perfect. We cannot guarantee that every decision of every monk is correct. It only matters if it is right. If it is wrong, it will easily influence the discussions of the three capitals. , affecting the Prison Yuan and Sandu to make wrong decisions. Therefore, I think there should be restrictions in this regard. "
Zhang Yangming and Shen Yunjing looked at each other, each with a smile on his face. In fact, they had been worried about this issue for a long time. However, after experiencing the meeting of Zhenshitang in Yuanfu Palace, they did not dare to express their worries. They did not expect that Zhao Zhiran would take the initiative to mention it. This was very unexpected and very strange. It¡¯s rare.
"Zhiran, tell me, do you have any good ideas?"
"I have two suggestions. One is to stipulate the term of office for monks. One term is four or five years. You can hold the same position for more than three terms at most. Each time you serve, you must go through public recommendation before you can be promoted. If it is If he is unpopular and the recommendation fails, he will resign and the gym will appoint a new person to conduct the recommendation. In this way, there will be some checks and balances on him."
Zhang Yangming and Shen Yunjing nodded together, thinking attentively while nodding.
"Second, establish a supervision mechanism. Without supervision, even a virtuous person will easily inflate himself and give birth to inner demons. This will not only be detrimental to one's own practice, but also lead to deviations in the handling of affairs. My suggestion is, For the time being, the Taoist walkers of each Taoist temple will assume the supervisory responsibilities, and the specific methods will be carefully considered. In the future, a special department should be established in the General View to unify the management of Taoist walkers and patrol the practice circles for illegal activities."
"Third, it is recommended that abbots at the provincial level should consider introducing monks at least eight years later, and abbots at the overall level should consider introducing monks at least ten years later. At this position, every move has a great impact, and there is no experience in governing affairs. The monks cannot do it, they need to wait for them to grow up"
Shen Yunjing shook his head and said with a smile: "If I follow your suggestion, wouldn't my old Taoist thought of resigning from the Taoist priesthood and enjoying a happy life be in vain?"
Zhao Ran said sincerely: "You must not leave the Shifang Jungle alone. The overall situation requires you and Zhang Supervisor to be in charge."
Zhang Yangming put away the folded book and said: "We will discuss your suggestion again. This edict will be implemented soon. Abbot Shen and I both believe that Guyang County's experience is good, and you are the best in this regard." It's very promising, so I want to put some more burden on you and ask you to work harder. I wonder if Zhiran is interested in coming to Jiujiang to preach?"
Zhao Ran was suddenly startled, thinking, could this be a gift specially sent by the two big guys in front of him? Jiujiang is a land of one government, and it is the number one government in the world. I am twenty-nine years old, and is it appropriate to serve as the abbot of the number one government in the world? Besides, didn't we just say that the abbot of the palace should be a monk with a level of Jindan or above? And it will be at least three years later. What do the two big guys mean?
I heard Zhang Yangming say: "In the past two years, there have been many sermons in Sichuan.?The ideas are ahead of the rest of the world and are worthy of careful consideration and promotion. A while ago, Yun Yi refined the idea of ??raising half a square in the Songfan area, summarized it in a document, and reported it to Abbot Yun Jing and me. He suggested that, in view of Jiujiang¡¯s special status, it should follow the example of Songbo and raise half a square. , and at the same time, he also proposed that you should be consulted on matters related to the promotion of Duchangyuan in Xingxian County to a half-level, which is the most important thing, because this policy was originally proposed by you during the Ye Xueguan meeting. Later, Yunjing Supervisor Yuan and I submitted this policy to Sandu for discussion, and a decision was reached. Jiujiang's upgrade has been decided, and everyone at the discussion also believed that you should be the abbot of Duchang Yuan in Xingxian County, which is what everyone expects. ! "
Shen Yunjing nodded and said: "Yes, Xing County is where Lushan Mountain is located. If Jiujiang is the number one prefecture in the world, then Xing County should be the number one county in the world. It coincides with the two reforms of upgrading and monks going to the jungle in parallel. Without your initiative We old guys are worried when someone comes to Xingxian County to preside over it. When Xingxian County is straightened out in three years, I'm afraid there will be more important burdens placed on you, so you have to be prepared to endure hardships."
Listening to the two big bosses paving a smooth road for promotion in the future with their business-like attitude, Zhao Ran couldn't help but wonder to himself while being grateful, whether after so many years of hard work, he was finally able to wait for Yun Kai. See the sunrise?
After working in the position of Xingxian Supervisor for three years, what awaits me is the abbot of Jiujiang Palace. After that, even if the road is paved for Jiangxi Taoist Temple and even Zongguan High Road, the problems in the practice will still be problems. What?
With the cultivation method, the power of merit will not be a big problem. The registered population of Xing County is more than 300,000, which is about to catch up with the entire Long'an Prefecture. The population of the entire Jiujiang is more than 3 million, which is almost equal to half of Sichuan and the entire Jiangxi. Then there are 18 million people. What is the base number? How much merit can so many people provide?
Buteverything has a but, this is different from Zhao Ran's idea!
