Sanqing is a Taoist patriarch, why is he so unbearable in Journey to the West?

Because "Journey to the West" is a ** that promotes Buddhist culture, and Sanqing is the patriarch of Taoism, it is infinitely weakened in this **.

Journey to the West is mainly to promote Buddhism, so the patriarchs of Taoism must also stand aside in front of Buddhism.

Because "Journey to the West" is mainly to promote Buddhism, it belittles the patriarch of Taoism in all aspects.

Because the ** in the Ming and Qing dynasties was basically not strong in Taoism.

"Sanqing" refers to Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun. Yuan Shi Tianzun is the most respected in the "Three Qings".

During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty (126-144), Zhang Daoling founded the Heavenly Master Dao in Heming Mountain (now Dayi County, Sichuan) and respected "Taishang Laojun" as the supreme god. Later, Kou Qianzhi reformed the Heavenly Master Dao, and also took "Taishang Laojun" as the supreme god, but the name of "Moral Heavenly Venerable" has appeared.

Introduction:

Chapter 42 of the Tao Te Ching says: "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, three to all things, all things negative yin and embrace yang, impulsive and harmonious." "From the nameless avenue to generate chaotic vitality, from the vitality to generate yin and yang two qi, the harmony of yin and yang, give birth to all things in the world.

Chapter 14 also says: "If you don't see it, you can't see it, you can't hear it, you can't see it, you can't see it, you can't see it, These three cannot be cross-examined, so they are mixed into one", thinking that one is divided into three, three is one, "use is divided into three, and this is always one".

Later, Taoism derived from this to derive the three gods who lived in the Sanqing Shengjing.

The legend of the ancestor of the Three Qing Daoists

Taoism. Since its establishment, it has been based on the "Tao Te Ching" written by Lao Tzu

As an outline of the doctrine, practice the law of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in the hope of becoming an immortal, but in the subsequent evolution, Taoism found that there was a loophole in the worship of Lao Tzu as the main god, that is, the Tao Te Ching clearly stated that Lao Tzu only told the sages of the "Dao", not the existence of the "Dao" itself.

On top of Lao Tzu, there is such a thing as "Tao", so this is very troublesome. Because at that time, Lao Tzu was transformed into Taishang Laojun.

As the supreme god, there is a supreme existence above the supreme god, so there will be a fundamental shake on the belief in Taoism.

Therefore, in the evolution of thousands of years, Taoism divided the position of the main god into three according to the programmatic philosophical proposition of "Tao Te Ching", "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things", and divided it into the three main gods of Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

1, Yuan Shi Tianzun.

Among the three Qings, Yuan Shi Tianzun has the highest status and is the "ancestor who presides over the heavenly realm". The word "Yuanshi" was originally a Taoist term used to describe the origin of the universe, which means the origin and beginning, and later Taoism mythologized it as the supreme god.

According to the Taoist book, the Yuan Shi Tianzun lived in the highest heaven of the thirty-six heavens, and existed before the creation of all things in the universe, and he was immortal, and whenever a new heaven and earth were formed, he descended to the earth and taught the world the way of mysteries.

2, Lingbao Tianzun.

Lingbao Tianzun is the second highest god in the Three Qings, also known as Taishang Daojun. The Taoist Sutra says that he was born from the chaotic state of Yuan Qi before the universe was formed. It was originally "the essence of the second morning, the purple smoke of Jiuqing", born after 3,700 years of birth, living in the Xuandu Yujing Immortal Mansion in Shangqing Realm, with 300,000 guards of the golden boy and the jade girl, worshipping the gods, and countless people who are excessive.

3. Moral Heavenly Respect.

Among the three Qings, the belief in moral Tianzun is the most common. Daode Tianzun was originally called Taishang Laojun, which is a Taoist myth to Lao Tzu, the founder of the pre-Qin Taoist school in China. Lao Tzu's surname is Li Ming'er, and he was born with white hair, so he is called Lao Tzu.

Taoism Sanqing, refers to the Yuan Shi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, and Daode Tianzun. They are the supreme deities of Taoism and represent the Taoist cosmology, philosophical thoughts, and belief systems.

The three Qing ancestors refer to: Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun and Taiqing Daode Tianzun. In the Sanqing Palace, Yuan Shi Tianzun is in the first place, holding a Xuanzhu.

What is Sanqing?

The three clears are transformed by the three repeated souls of Pangu, so they are called one gas and three clears. Sanqing, Taoism.

of the three supreme gods. It is collectively known as "Void Nature Daluo Sanqing Sanjing Sanbao Tianzun", which refers to the Yuqing, Shangqing, and Taiqing Sanqing Shengjing respected by Taoism, and also refers to the three gods who live in the Sanqing Shengjing.

Is Taishang Laojun Lao Tzu?

Taishang Laojun is recognized as the ancestor of Taoism, that is, the ancestor of Taoism with the creation of heaven and salvation. It is a character in the gods, not a real person, the "Tao", the void of nature, the indescribable god, the strong name of the Tao, and the honorific title of Taishang. Lao Tzu, surnamed Li Ming'er, the word Dan, a word or said Boyang.

Founder and main representative.

Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun.

During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty (126-144), Zhang Daoling founded the Heavenly Master Dao in Heming Mountain (now Dayi County, Sichuan) and respected "Taishang Laojun" as the supreme god. Later, Kou Qianzhi reformed the Heavenly Master Dao, and also took "Taishang Laojun" as the supreme god, but the name of "Moral Heavenly Venerable" has appeared. As we can see today, the name of "Sanqing" was first seen in the "True Spiritual Position Karma Map" written by Tao Hongjing of the Southern Liang Dynasty.

The book arranges the order of the immortals and is divided into seven levels, each with a median. The first median, Shanghe Xuhuang Daojun, the number Yuan Shi Tianzun. The second median, Shangqing Gaosheng Taishang Yuchen Yuanhuang Daojun (the lord of all roads).

The third median, Taiji Jinque Emperor, surnamed Li (Ren Chenxia Sect Taiping Master). The fourth median, Taiqing Taishang Laojun (for the Taiqing Daoist, down to the people), the emperor Taishang Supreme Daojun.

Among them, the name of the Taiqing Dynasty of the Shangqing Dynasty is more obvious, but the order of the name of the "Three Qings" has not yet been determined, and the third place is the "Emperor of Jinque", and the Taishang Laojun is in the fourth middle. Later, the name of the "Three Qings" gradually changed and developed, and it became a definite theory in the Tang Dynasty.

Daozang, Taipingbu, Three Caves Touching the Bead Bag" Volume 7 quotes the cloud of "Laojun's Sacred Miracles": "This is the Jade Qing Realm, the Yuan Shi Tianzun Position, above the thirty-five heavens." This is the Shangqing Realm, the Taishang Dao Jun (Lingbao Tianzun) position, above the thirty-four heavens.

Taiqing Realm Taiji Palace, that is, the old monarch of Taishang, is above the thirty-three. So the "Three Qings" became the supreme god of Taoism.
