Why is there a connection between Tibetan Buddhism and Taoism in China?

Don't say that Tibetan Buddhism is influenced by Taoism, Chinese Buddhism is also influenced by Taoism. Lao Tzu's non-action, nature, being, and non-existence appear in Buddhist scriptures, all of which are from Taoist professional terms. In ancient times, when Zhu Fahu and Kumarosh translated Buddhist scriptures, they were familiar with Chinese cultural ideas and influenced by Taoist thoughts, and when translating Buddhist scriptures, they all incorporated some Taoist ideas into the translated scriptures unconsciously.

Tibetan Buddhism is a very open religion because it learns all kinds of knowledge for the sake of reaching out to all sentient beings, and then integrates that knowledge into the Tibetan Buddhist culture. Therefore, Tibetan Buddhism attaches great importance to the study of the Five Wisdoms. The Encyclopedia of Chinese Buddhism points out that the five Mings are the Declaration, the Cause, the Medicine, the Skill, and the Interior.

Its content is like the second volume of the "Records of the Western Regions": statement, interpretation of the words, interpretation of the words, interpretation of the eye. Clever workmanship, trick organs, lunisolar calendar numbers.

The medical prescription is clear, the curse is forbidden, and the medicine stone is acupuncture. Because of the clear, the test determines the good and the evil, and studies the authenticity. Inner Ming, study the five vehicles, cause and effect.

The Bodhisattva's Spiritual Teachings Explaining the Bodhisattva's Dharma-seeking, the Bodhisattva should seek all the Bodhisattva's Tibetan Dharma, all the Shravaka Tibetan Dharma, all the discourses, and all the worldly industrial discourses. Among them, the Bodhisattva Tibetan Dharma and the Shravaka Tibetan Dharma belong to the inner knowledge, and all the dispositions refer to the declaration, the cause and the medical prescription, and all the worldly industrial dispositions are the work and skill of the understanding. Thus, the Five Mings also include all the scholarships that Mahayana bodhisattvas have learned.

Before Tibetan Buddhism entered Tibet, Master Lotus Huasheng, the first patriarch of Tibetan Buddhism, was himself a man of rich learning, who studied Buddhist thought, Indian yoga, and integrated Taoist thought in his life. The Nine Palaces Bagua is a symbol of Taoism, and when you see this symbol in the Manjushri Nine Palace Bagua Diagram made by Master Rinpoche, you can see the embodiment of the influence of Taoist thought. Because there are patriarchs who take the lead in learning Taoist thought, Tibetan Buddhism has become more active and open than Han Buddhism, and in addition to Master Xulian, there are more Tibetan masters who have come into contact with Taoism, and after understanding that Taoism is a vast and profound Han culture, they will take its essence and remove its badness, and integrate Taoist ideas into Buddhism.

Because Tibetan Buddhism pays attention to the Five Wisdoms, and there are patriarchs who lead them to contact or integrate Taoist culture, it is natural that Tibetan Buddhism has a related connection with Taoism.

Buddhism can only be said to be a branch of religion, and religion is divided into Tantra and Zen Buddhism, and Buddhism is only a branch of Zen Buddhism, and Tibetan Buddhism has some subtle relationships with Tantra, and the largest branch of Tantra is Taoism.

How to say it, it can only be said that they don't have a good relationship. Buddhism and Taoism are both sects, and of course believers are required. In the same way, believers are human beings. At that time, there were relatively few people, and Buddhism robbed Taoism of business.

Diamond Sutra Cloud: All sages are different from nothing.

If you take a closer look, Tibetan Buddhism is a Zhengyi religion dressed in the cloak of Buddhism, especially Tantra, drawing talismans and chanting mantras and handprints Bugang or something have been learned, and the main medical doctor of Taoism Bu Xing is also the same, hehe, understand, just look at the history of Padmasambhava, he learned this first.

The two men often scolded each other.

They all said that they learned from each other.

In fact, this is the result of cultural exchange.

There's really no need to figure it out.

Buddha is a path of 3,000 paths.

Because they wear different colors and different clothes, they are called by color in private, and they are the five major factions of yellow, red, white, flower, and black.

It was fused with the Uzbean religion and the Tibetan culture, that is, Tibetan Buddhism, and after the Han and Central Plains cultures gathered, it became Han Buddhism, and then there was a special Zen Buddhism.

Because Buddhism will become regional in the process of spreading, this branch of Tibetan Buddhism will be formed.

There is an essential difference between Tibetan Buddhism and traditional Buddhism, and the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism are a little stricter.

It is mainly due to the difference in regional culture, so there are branches.

It should be based on the region, so it is integrated into the traditional culture.

Because different places will have different customs and habits, it will definitely be improved.

Lamaism has been a sin for a long time, and it has been more than a thousand years since it passed off as Buddhism.

It still has a lot to do with regional differences, and after it was introduced, each region produced its own style.

Combining the local religion, and the Tang Dynasty, and the princess, the princess brought a large number of classics, Buddhist and Taoist personnel.

Tibetan Buddhism is not from China, but from India.

The Diamond Sutra also has levels to people who are virtuous, to people who are cultivated, to people who have selfless spirits, to people who have some understanding of emptiness, not to Buddhism, but to others.

Because the ruler needed it, he invited Padmasambhava, Atisha, and others to Tibet to preach the Dharma, but it continued to grow and influence Tibet, so it was destroyed and propagated.

The Tibetan secrets were transmitted directly from India.

Chinese and Tibetan are the distinction between languages.
