In which dynasty did Chinese Taoism originate, and in what dynasty did Taoism arise?

Taoism is a religion native to China. It was founded in the period of Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In terms of cultural tradition, Taoism has inherited the traditional ritual and music civilization of ancient China; In this theory, Taoism directly absorbed and developed the Taoist ideas of Laozi and Zhuangzi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period; In practice, Taoism inherited the cultivation experience and achievements of scholars and immortals in the pre-Qin period.

Taoist culture has a long history and is broad and profound. To sum up, there are: Taoist cosmology, Taoist outlook on life, Taoist philosophy, Taoist theology, Taoist Gong and Taoism, Zhaijiao etiquette, medical health, yin and yang feng shui, life and appearance, dojo rituals, Taoist martial arts, Taoism and other twelve aspects.

Taoism originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Confucius was Confucian, and later generations said that it was Confucianism. It's actually the same thing. But Taoism and Taoism are two different things. Taoism is philosophical thought. Taoism is a religion that developed according to the ideas of Taoism.

In the Han Dynasty, Zhang Daoling, it was he who founded Taoism.

My idea should be the Jin Dynasty, when there were many religious believers, and everyone wanted to become immortals.

Taoism arose in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

When Buddhism first came to Middle-earth, it was intentionally consistent with Taoism (Taoism), and it was first popularized by Taoism. Buddhism mainly absorbed Taoist principles and Taoist techniques, and then in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the monk Tan Luan also learned "longevity" from Tao Hongjing, a Taoist real person, and the establishment of Zen Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty was also influenced by the social background of the prevalence of Taoism - Lao Zhuang thought by the royal family at that time.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, foreign Buddhism and local Taoism engaged in fierce confrontations, which were manifested in the Northern Dynasties as the extermination of Buddhism by Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. At the same time, Buddhism and Taoism also communicate with each other, borrowing from each other's teachings and theories.

Taoism is the native religion of China, with "Tao" as the highest faith. Taoism is based on the ancient Chinese concept of ghost and god worship, based on the ideas of Huang and Lao Taoism, and inherited the evolution of immortal magic since the Warring States period. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a large number of Taoist organizations appeared, including the famous Taiping Dao and Wudou Rice Dao.

Patriarch Zhang Daoling officially founded the Order, which has a history of 1,800 years.

Taoism is a polytheistic worship, and the gods and immortals are personified and embodied in Taoism's belief in "Tao". Taoist priests are Taoist clergy, and there are more than 30,000 Taoist priests living in the country. The palace is a place for Taoist activities, and there are more than 2,000 palaces registered and opened in the country.

Three basic sources.

Taoism has three basic sources: ghost worship, belief in Fang Xian, and Huang Lao Taoism.

Cult of ghosts and witchcraft.

In ancient times, people regarded the sun, moon and stars, rivers, seas and mountains, and ancestors and sages as gods and worshipped, prayed and worshipped. During the period of the Yellow Emperor, there was a sacrifice to the Emperor of Heaven, and its content included "sealing Zen to tell the sky", "suburbing to God", "receiving all spirits in the Ming Court" and so on. This long-standing worship of ghosts and gods formed a system of gods and spirits of gods, earthly gods and human ghosts by the time of the Zhou Dynasty, and a belief tradition of worshiping heaven and ancestors.

Taoism not only inherited this idea of ghost worship, but also incorporated this system of gods into the system of immortals. The belief in witchcraft, which is closely related to the worship of ghosts and gods, has also been around for a long time, and the ancients believed that divination could resolve doubts and determine good fortune; Witches can communicate with ghosts and spirits and convey divine wills; Witchcraft can pray for blessings and cure diseases. Ancient witchcraft was directly inherited by the Warring States Immortal Fangshi.

Belief in fairy magic.

During the Warring States Period, there were immortal monks in Yanqi in the north and Jingchu in the south who propagated immortal immortals, forming the immortal family (also known as Fang Xiandao) among the hundred sons of Zhuzi. Fang Xiandao preached the belief in immortality, and regarded the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu as models of immortality and regarded them as immortal ancestors; He put forward the idea of seeking immortal and immortal elixirs in the fairyland, and practiced the cultivation techniques such as sacrificing to the gods in the ancestral stove, practicing qi and clearing the valley, and guiding the vomit; In particular, he advocated alchemy and took pills as a way to become immortals.

The frequent descriptions of the fairyland of the gods and spirits in the Jingchu region, such as "Zhuangzi" and "Chu Ci", gave great inspiration and thinking to the immortals; In the Yanqi area, there are legends of Penglai, Yingzhou, and Abbot Sanshen Mountain on the sea, driving the emperor and the priests to visit. Fang Xian's beliefs and Fang techniques were inherited by Taoism, and Fang Shi gradually evolved into Taoist priests.

According to the Taoist scriptures, Taoism began before the misty catastrophe, when the heaven and the earth were not divided. The universe is chaotic, the sun and the moon are not shining, Taishang Laojun was born in the middle, and his pseudonym is Pangu; After five too (too.

1. Taichu, Taisu, Taishi, Taiji), light and clear floating, heavy turbidity and condensation and opening the world; It was also reborn for three days from the beginning of Xuanyuan. Lao Jun's eyes turned into the sun and the moon, his hair into stars, his muscles into fertile soil, his bones into hard rocks, his breath into wind and clouds, his voice and the divine light in his eyes into thunder and lightning, his blood in his body into rivers and lakes, and his hair into grass and trees ......As a result, yin energy rises, yang energy falls, all things are generated, and people are prosperous. At this point, Lao Jun returned to the Heavenly Palace, taking the void as the body and the micro as the house.

Then Lao Jun incarnated several times and went through eighty-one transformations. When Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, he incarnated as Guangchengzi and granted the Yellow Emperor the way of health preservation; In the Spring and Autumn Period, he incarnated as Lao Tzu, passed down the "Tao Te Ching", and taught Guan Yinzi to cultivate the truth, which led to the prosperity of the Tao.

In the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, more than 1,800 years ago, that is, when Emperor Shun of the Eastern Han Dynasty (reigned in 126 144 AD), Laojun descended to Shudu, awarded the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling the "Zhengyi League Weixi" and "Wudou Zhenjing", and founded the Heavenly Master Taoism in Mingshan, Dayi, Sichuan. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Lao Jun reinstated the Tao to Emperor Xuanfu of Donghua; In the Han Dynasty, Emperor Donghua taught the Tao to the Zhengyang patriarch Zhong Liquan; In the Tang Dynasty, the Zhengyang patriarch taught the Tao to the Chunyang patriarch Lu Dongbin. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhong Lu Erxian descended on the Ganhe Bridge and awarded the Chongyang Patriarch and the Tao.

The Chongyang patriarch gathered the four seas sect style in one altar, practiced asceticism in the tomb of the living dead, preached in Shandong, and the seven sons of Quanzhen continued the sect style, passed it on to future generations, and the teachings were greatly prosperous.

1. Originated in the Warring States Period. In the middle of the Warring States period, the state of Qi flourished the Huanglao Taoism that respected the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu, and the rulers of the early Western Han Dynasty admired the Huang Lao's learning of inaction, creating a prosperous era of "the rule of Wenjing".

2. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Huang Lao doctrine went to the people, and merged with Fang Xian Dao to form the Huang Lao Dao, which changed from political belief to religious group. The Confucianism of Confucius and Mencius was compatible with Taoism and constituted the main body of religious ethics and morality.

3. The theory of yin and yang and five elements of the pre-Qin Taoist Zou Yan is also an important part of Taoist theory. The "Taiping Sutra" of the two Han Dynasty and Huang Lao Taoism preached the gasification of heaven and earth, and the harmony of heaven and man.

1. The way of heaven bears the burden, the happiness is good, and the goal is "the way of the peaceful world".

4. The Eastern Han Danding Taoist School Jian Ru sold Wei Boyang's "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed" to combine Yi Xue, Huang Lao, and Huo Hou to summarize and develop Taoist health alchemy.

Now many friends have also seen in TV dramas that Taoist culture has existed for a long time, and it is still influential now, but most people don't know when Taoism started, and which dynasty was Taoism founded?

1. Taoism was founded in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China.

2. The development process of Taoism has a history of more than 1,800 years, and the culture of Taoism has an extraordinary position in the traditional culture of ancient China.

3. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Taoism, as one of the hundred sects of the Hundred Sons, was founded by Laozi Li Er. However, it was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty that Taoism was truly developed, and many Taoist organizations were established at this time.

4. During the Tang Dynasty, the development of Taoism was unprecedentedly prosperous, and during the Tang Wuzong period, Lao Tzu was regarded as the incarnation of Taishang Laojun.

The Taoism we talk about today is actually a religious belief that integrates the concepts of Fang Xian Dao, Huang Lao Dao and folk belief in heavenly gods, etc., with the purpose of immortality, cultivating the Tao to become immortals, and helping the world and saving people.
