With the introduction of Buddhism into China after the combination of the slope and the heavy building of the Middle Earth, it has experienced the development of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and has exchanged and integrated with the architectural system of the adjacent area, and gradually formed a pavilion-type tower, a dense eaves tower, a pavilion-type tower, a bowl-covered tower, a King Kong throne tower, a treasure seal tower, a five-wheel tower, a multi-treasure pagoda, a seamless tower and other tower systems with different forms and structures, and the building plane has gradually evolved from the early square to a hexagon, octagonal and even circular. During this period, the construction technology of the tower has also continued to improve, the structure has become more and more reasonable, and the materials used have also expanded from the traditional rammed earth and wood to masonry, ceramics, glass, metal and other materials. After the 14th century, the pagoda gradually moved from the religious world to the secular world, so according to the sutra system, the pagoda can be divided into stupa and Wenfeng pagoda.

The reincarnation of Taoism and Buddhism is essentially the same. Detachment from samsara refers to detachment from the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements. Buddhism talks about becoming a Buddha in the flesh and transcending reincarnation. Taoism talks about cultivating the golden pill, the soul is immortal, and the reincarnation is transcendent.

Zhuangzi, the representative of Taoism, has the theory of reincarnation, and there are two interpretations of reincarnation in the book "Zhuangzi", one is the soul and the other is qi.

Zhuangzi's view on the immortality of the soul in the "Journey to the North" may be communicated with the Buddhist theory of immortality

Between the world and the earth, if the white horse is too much, it is all of a sudden. Suddenly, there is no way to go out; It's oily, it's all incomprehensible. It has been born and died, and living beings mourn it, and human beings mourn it.

Solve its heavens, fall into its heavens, all like it, the soul will go, it is the body from it, it is the big return!

The six realms of reincarnation refer to the six realms of heaven and man (immortal), asura, human, animal, hungry ghost, and hell. So the immortals are still in the six realms of reincarnation.

The Taoist concept of reincarnation is derived from Buddhism. Taoist cultivation is nothing more than Da Luo Jin Xian, this is their liberation from life and death, but Taoism's liberation does not go beyond the Three Realms.

"Unknown life, unknown death", Taoism is only this life, repaired to become an immortal, crane hair and childish face, can function, longevity. In Buddhism, reincarnation refers to the endless life of life in the six realms.

Relying on non-action, he cultivates his own heart, is extremely strong, and cultivates life and death without seeking and thinking.

Transcendent from life and death, I will not look forward to the next life.

Taoism does not believe in reincarnation, but eternal life, and Buddhism is reincarnation.

Taoism cannot get rid of reincarnation, can not transcend life and death, at most become immortals, immortals will be exhausted, and will eventually fall, forever in the six realms of reincarnation.

Buddhism, on the other hand, can transcend the six realms and forever escape from life and death.

Seen The Matrix? This movie actually describes our current world, which is a holographic false world coded by high-dimensional life, it is mentioned in the Heart Sutra that the color, sound, fragrance, and touch are all fake, just a specific frequency, the earth is actually a soul prison, the soul of the earthlings is bound to the reincarnation system, and the extremely limited lifespan makes it difficult for you to remember your true self, and after death, you are forced to clean your memories and re-throw you into a human vehicle, and the caretakers of this prison control all information in the fields of education, life, religion, etc., The purpose is to make people unable to access the true knowledge, but instead release all kinds of false religious information to confuse the world, and the Dharma handed down by Shakyamuni has long been erased and adapted and distorted, for example, the Heart Sutra, which truly describes the truth of the universe, was actually instigated by some people to recite it silently tens of thousands of times as a cash cow for blessings! In fact, how can there be so many great monks, many of them are blind people riding blind horses, in 1947 Roswell incident of Arrow mentioned that the earth has truly awakened from reincarnation since the Common Era, only one Lao Tzu, and the Tao Sutra left by Lao Tzu has long been burned to change the content and renamed the Tao Te Ching to further mislead the world!

Nowadays, religion is almost a carrot and stick model, intimidation (if you don't believe, you will have to go to hell, how to drip it) and sweetness (such as good fortune, eternal life, belief in this religion after death or into heaven, etc.), so that people succumb to reincarnation in fear, and forget what they should really do - awakening.

There are many types of towers, each of which serves a different purpose.

One is the buildings in the temple, such as the pagoda, which is mainly used to reflect the status of the Buddha, such as the wooden pagoda in Yingxian County, Shanxi, and the white pagoda in Beihai Park in Beijing; The second type is the storage of bone relics after the death of senior monks, such as the Tallinn of Shaolin Temple; The third category is lighthouses, such as the Quanzhou East and West Tower, Shishi's sister-in-law tower; The fourth category is commemorative, such as the Pavilion of King Teng.

To be honest, I didn't think it was much different......

Of course, it is the architectural style, and the difference in the layout is called a big ......

Taoism is a Taoist temple, which was used in ancient times to refine the elixir of immortality for the emperor.

Buddhism is a monastery, mainly for people to worship and preach the scriptures.

Because of the different uses, the architectural style is different.

Taoism is an authentic Chinese architecture, while Buddhism has a Westernization, but it has been basically assimilated into Chinese architecture for 1,000 years, and there is not much difference between the two.

After the Taoist practice is successful, you can become an immortal.

Because of the different levels of cultivation, immortals are also divided into many different levels.

Taoism has the Ten Halls of the Netherworld, the Yama King, the judge, etc. Taoism pays attention to the balance of yin and yang, and there is yin and yang, so it is said that there is a living person's yang world, and there is a human being's underworld when they die.

Zhuangzi said, "Regard life and death as day and night." ”

If it's gone, it's gone, and I want to say something.
