It is generally believed that the founder of Taoism in China is: Zhang Ling. Road number Zhang Daoling. Also called Zhang Tianshi
Taoism was formed in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was based on the beliefs of the Yellow Emperor and Lao Tzu that prevailed at that time, took Taoist philosophy as the theoretical pillar, absorbed the religious form of Buddhism, and collected the belief in ghosts and gods, medical divination, astrology and other techniques in the social folklore into its own big gourd, thus forming a multi-level religious system.
In the history of Taoism, Zhang Ling (a Zhang Daoling), Zhang Heng's Heavenly Master Dao, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Lu's Five Bucket Rice Dao, Zhang Jiao's Taiping Dao, etc., are all named early Taoism. They modeled themselves on the administrative system of the Han Dynasty and established a relatively complete religious organization.
From the above, it can be seen that Zhang Ling, Zhang Heng, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Lu, and Zhang Jiao are all founders of Taoism. Zhang Daoling was only the founder of Tianshi Dao (a sect of Taoism), but Tianshi Dao later gained momentum, and people mostly thought that Zhang Tianshi (Daoling) was the founder of Taoism.
As far as belief is concerned, because traditional Taoism was under the influence of Western Buddhism, in order to resist, it created a system of immortals based on ancient legends. This system has been constantly modified and processed for thousands of years, coupled with the contradictions and conflicts between Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism in China (mainly the dispute between Taoism and Buddhism), and the final outcome is peaceful coexistence. Therefore, later generations imagined the gods in Taoism and Buddhism together, and compiled a set of immortal systems that connect the east and the west to meet the needs of the people's beliefs.
Song Dynasty Song Zhenzong was the first to list the Jade Emperor as the object of sacrifice, the so-called public opinion can not be violated, Taoists simply promoted the status of the Jade Emperor, all of a sudden ranked above the Three Qings (it is also said that one of the Three Qings, listed two), to the modern era, in the new Taoist immortal system, the Three Qings were listed as the highest gods in the sky, and the Jade Emperor was lowered by one level, and became the head of the gods above the three Qings. There is also an explanation for the strange and confusing identity of the Jade Emperor in the past: the Jade Emperor is the embodiment of the Three Qings.

Taishang Laojun, the prototype is Lao Tzu, or Lao Tan, that is, Li Er.
However, the de facto founder is Zhang Ling, or Zhang Daoling, who is revered as Zhang Tianshi. In Taoism, it is called the Five Buckets of Rice Road.
The Jade Emperor has recently been recognized as the supreme leader of Taoism.

The meaning of the Buddhist faith is as follows:
The Buddhist faith has two aspects, external and internal. In other words, the definition of Buddhist belief should be based on the object of belief on the one hand, and the inner mind of the believer on the other. Therefore, the inner aspect of faith must correspond to the external orientation and form a structure.
Specifically, it is possible to define the possible state of the inner aspect of the belief by identifying the object of the Buddhist belief, and then clarify the basic meaning of the Buddhist belief in the inner aspect on this basis.
Buddhism, broadly speaking, includes its scriptures, rituals, customs, organization of the order, and so on. In a narrow sense, Buddhism is the teachings of the Buddha, in Buddhist terms, called the Dharma, including the teachings of the Four Noble Truths, the Dharma of Dependent Origination, the Four Dharma Seals, the Four Degrees of Enlightenment, and the Eightfold Path, which explain the problems of life and the world.
The basic content of the Buddhist teachings of the Pilgrims:
To put it simply, it refers to the suffering in the world (the true meaning of suffering) and the causes of suffering (the true cause or the true set of truths), as well as the methods for eliminating suffering (the true meaning of extinction) and the method of eliminating suffering (the true path truth). Truth is the meaning of truth. There are many Buddhist scriptures, but in fact, none of them go beyond the Four Noble Truths, and the fundamental principle on which the Four Noble Truths are based is the Law of Dependent Arising, from which all the teachings of Buddhism are derived.
According to the principle of all dependent originations, the theory of false existence in a vacuum is introduced, which says that all phenomena in the world are born of causes and conditions, born and destroyed in an instant, without qualitative prescriptiveness and independent entities, false but not real, and the illusion of causes and conditions is called false existence.

People who study Buddhism do not necessarily believe in Buddhism. True belief in Buddhism requires a full belief in Buddhism. Some people just study Buddhism, but they don't necessarily have enough faith to practice it, and they don't practice it at all.
If you look closely, how many people are around us, how many people are in the world, and how many of these people are studying Buddhism? There are many people who study Buddhism, how many of them are really scholars? What is true learning?
If you have enough faith and practice, it is called true learning, and if these four words are not sufficient, it is not called true learning. This life is not bad, I have the fate to meet the Dharma, but I don't know what a Buddha is. When he sees the Buddha statue, he also hears people chanting Amitabha Buddha, or he has a good impression, he still likes it, he doesn't learn it, or he gets bored of listening to it, he is superstitious, and all of them are people who are related to the Buddha.
Excerpt Gonglu - Interpretation of the Pure Land Sutra (Episode 578).
1 If we want to learn Buddhism, we must know Buddhism! Buddhism is the education of Shakyamuni Buddha, what does it talk about? I divide it into five broad categories: ethics, morality, cause and effect, philosophy, science.
2 When we receive the education of Shakyamuni Buddha and have a clear understanding of everything in this universe, all the dharmas, natures, directors, causes and effects in this universe, and all the phenomena that arise in the world, this is called learning Buddhism.
3 When we study Buddhism, we must read and recite the scriptures. To read and recite every day is to accept the Buddha's teachings every day, never forget the Buddha's teachings to us, and we must turn these teachings into our own thoughts, opinions, and life behaviors.
4 To study Buddhism is to learn the life of Buddhism, to learn Buddhism to deal with people and things, how does the Buddha live? How does the Buddha treat people? How does a Buddha deal with things? Even how does the Buddha treat heaven, earth, ghosts and gods? Studying in this place is called learning Buddhism, and you are like a Buddha.
5 Reciting sutras every day without doing it is not called learning Buddhism, but Buddhism. Buddhism is not the study of Buddhism, and Buddhism is useless – you can't stop your troubles, you can't eliminate karma, you can't get rid of birth and death, you can't go out of the Three Realms.
6 I must learn the Buddha, what kind of mind is the Buddha, how the Buddha behaves and treats people, I must also learn to be exactly like him, this is the way. The mind of the Buddha and the actions of the Buddha are all in the scriptures, so it is very, very important to understand the meaning of the scriptures and act according to its words!
7 Don't think that the sutras are so high that we have to recite them every day and bow to them, for this is useless! To turn the scriptures into oneself and turn oneself into Amitabha Buddha is called learning Buddhism.
8 Amitabha Buddha treats all sentient beings equally—equal respect, equal praise, equal offerings, and we learn exactly the same as him, and this is called learning Buddhism.

What can be learned is only what the Buddha said, but the Buddha's thinking is not something that can be known by rote memorization, but depends on enlightenment.
Belief in Buddhism is actually a false proposition. Buddhism can be said to include both the great achievers and many practitioners. If you swallow dates, you will inevitably have no fixed views and contradict yourself.
The ultimate goal of studying Buddhism is to become a Buddha. But a Buddha is not the only mold of the standard, but a self-realized person who lives out his true nature.
The real goal is to learn the rules, to get rid of the dogmas of other Buddhas, and to become a realised person who lives out his true nature.
If you are conscious, then you will not ask for others at will, but rely on yourself. You are God, and you can naturally bless yourself at all times.

Hello, those who study Buddhism believe in Buddhism. However, the so-called people who believe in Buddhism have not really studied Buddhism, but simply worship Buddha and make wishes like folk religions.
To "study Buddhism" is to study the Buddha's teachings and vow to become a person who has attained enlightenment like the Buddha.
The Dharma is as vast as the sea, and there are three fundamental seals: the impermanence of all actions, the selflessness of all laws, and the silence of Nirvana;
The six paramitas are the six practices that a bodhisattva should practice if he wants to become a Buddha. They are the giving of the paramita (tanparami), the precept paramita (corpse parami), the forbearance parami (titiparami), the diligent parami (Viliya paramita), the dhya paramita, and the prajnaparami.
Do not do any evil, but do all good. Self-purification is the meaning of Buddhism. These 141 sentences summarize all Buddhism, and the vast sea of Buddhism is all captured in this side. The size of the multiplication of 80,000 Dharma collections, since then one side has flowed out.
Buddhism does not deny the existence of gods, but according to the Buddhist cosmology, gods are only beings in the six heavenly realms, still circulating in the six realms of reincarnation, and after their own merits are exhausted, they will still fall into the other five realms, and have not yet attained final liberation.

The Buddha is a great enlightened being, and we ordinary people want to learn from the Buddha and strive to become a great enlightened person like the Buddha. There are no worries, no sufferings of life and death, and freedom from it. The Buddhist scriptures have many connotations, such as being entangled in the whole causal order in life, and being entangled in desires.
People can't be liberated, so people have to learn Buddhism and practice.
It is very difficult for ordinary people to let go of their personal selfish distractions, so the process of learning and practicing will vary from person to person. There is no basic definition of what kind of person is a person who studies Buddhism.
Personally, I think that people who can really follow the precepts in the Buddhist scriptures as a criterion are considered to be practicing and learning Buddhism. Those who can penetrate the classical theories and practice wisdom are called true Buddhists.
As for the god you are talking about, please also talk about the efficacy.
-
There are two kinds of people who study Buddhism, one is those who study the classical theories of Buddhism, and this kind of person believes in Buddhism or not, and is in the middle of the two. The other kind of person is to study Buddhism and believe in Buddhism, with the aim of becoming a Buddha through studying Buddhism and practicing Buddhism. The simple way; By looking at a person's clothing, food, housing, and transportation, how he behaves in the world, and whether he or she is engaged in all his activities, and whether he or she demands himself according to the precepts of the Dharma, you can discern whether a person is a person who studies and practices Buddhism.

Don't think of the Buddha as too mysterious, the Buddha is a person who is virtuous and wise. To learn Buddhism is not to put incense on the light and kowtow, but to learn the hearts of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for the benefit and compassion of sentient beings, and to implement such a heart into every bit of life. That is, do not do all evil, and do all good; Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
On this basis, chanting the Buddha, chanting sutras, and worshipping the Buddha can all be seen as ways to learn such compassion, and the most important thing is to worship the Buddha in the heart, to remind oneself, to be firm in one's own nature, not to be tainted.
-
You must believe in Buddhism in order to learn Buddhism. Buddhism is neither theistic nor atheistic; Because God has attained enlightenment, but has not yet attained enlightenment, Buddhists do not worship God and do not believe in God. Buddhism is an education that teaches sentient beings how to attain supreme bodhi and get rid of the sea of suffering.
The purpose of seeing the mind is the real study of Buddhism.

Personally, I believe that as long as you have a certain interest and motivation, have an open-minded and objective attitude, understand the Buddhist worldview, outlook on life, and cosmology, learn the truth and practice methods that the Buddha said, and try to observe and practice them in conjunction with your personal reality, you are considered to be "studying Buddhism".
I don't know what concept of faith is defined?
If "faith" means to believe unconditionally before it is confirmed, this is also an attitude that Buddhist students have to hold, because you have no enlightenment, you can't judge whether the Buddha is true or false, so only if you choose to believe first, will you be willing to take action to practice, and after implementation can you confirm, and finally you have to confirm it before you can achieve true faith, which is different from the unreasonable superstition of fools and fools, and also different from the attitude of scientists who are skeptical.
If "Yang" means to admire, to look up, people who study Buddhism have respect for the Buddha and even the great masters and great monks, because they are people who have realized earlier and have more complete wisdom than us, and only by learning from them with respect can we finally achieve the same achievements as them. But this is not like the worship and reliance on God, the gods, the so-called Creator, and the Savior, because all beings are equal, and although there are differences in appearance, the Buddha nature of all beings in the six realms is the same, and all beings are Buddhas in the first place, so there is no need for anyone to worship whom. Fate is governed by karma and can be changed through practice, so why rely on others?

Those who study Buddhism are those who believe in Buddhism and believe in it.
To study Buddhism is to study the Dharma, and the Buddha preached 84,000 methods more than 3,000 years ago. Appearance.
If you practice according to the law, you will be able to attain health, prosperity, and life and death.
To be able to become a student of Buddhism is to have sufficient good roots accumulated over time, such as worshipping the Buddha in the previous life, offering incense flowers and food to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and even monks, building and even repairing pagodas and temples, writing or decorating scriptures, etc.
Having faith in the Dharma is called a true student of the Buddha.
Studying Buddhism is not believing in God, Buddha and God are different classes, Buddha is the supreme enlightened person, that is, there is no higher level above the Buddha fruit. A Buddha can play with the universe, create the world, transform the immeasurable into all worlds and purify sentient beings, and so on. And God is far from it, God can only be within the Three Realms of one world. ......Not to mention more, if you are interested in hearing the Dharma, please go deep into the scriptures!
The benefits of being able to recite every word of the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha are the Three Jewels of the world, and even the benefits of being able to recite every word of the sutra are better than having all the treasures and treasures in the world. Therefore, please take what you have seen and heard about the Three Treasures, do not approach Baoshan, but return empty-handed.

I am a student of Buddhism, and I am a disciple of Buddhism, not a Buddhist.
How do you learn from Bai Buddha? It is called du
Those who take refuge in the Buddha's treasure, the Dharma treasure, and the Sangha treasure, can follow what the Buddha says, do what he says, and act as he says.
I believe in Buddhism, and I only believe in what the Buddha and the Great Bodhisattva say.
I know that there are gods and celestial beings, but I don't rely on the teachings of gods or celestial beings, unless they are paraphrasing what the Buddha said.

Buddhism has its own unique system and philosophy, its own thinking and way of life.
Bai is the way of being a person, learning Buddhism is not necessarily a Buddhist, maybe only dao is just wanting to get something from it, Buddhists have risen to the height of faith, their own code of conduct are consciously or unconsciously in accordance with the Buddhism to restrict, study Buddhism or study Buddhism, study and learn only its philosophy Life as a person, and the study of other disciplines is no different, as for the size of the influence received in the process of learning and research, learning enlightenment and then becoming a practice of Buddhism, learning to learn, useful to stay, Useless discarding, this is the attitude of doing learning,
The road is the largest. However, the Tao is too ethereal, and as a religion, it is not easy for believers to worship, so there are specific immortals. Taoism regards "Tao" as the highest faith. >>>More
Of course not, if you founded Buddhism, the debate between Buddhism and Buddhism has never stopped, and if you come to the great day, so Buddhism does not recognize it.
Because I'm afraid of trouble. He felt that the king of his daughter's country might take a fancy to him, which would cause trouble for him.
It also represents a right and has a high status, which also represents the highest phase, so Sun Wukong is so afraid of hurting himself.
Buddha as it comes. Because the Buddha is the controller of the Buddha family, and Zhen Yuanzi is just a hermit, the status of the Buddha is higher.
