"The way of humanity is vague, the way of heaven is vast; the way of ghosts is joyful, and it is the door to life." The content is wrong, it should be "The way of humanity is vague, and the way of heaven is vast. The way of ghosts is joyful, and it is the door to life."
1. It means: the path of human life is illusory and unclear, the path of cultivating immortality is boundless and difficult to grasp, and the misguided path of ghosts in life can indeed satisfy people's temporary greed and delusion. "People" must take the door to survive safely.
2. This content comes from the first sound of flying in the sky in the "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Immeasurable Human Sutra". The specific content is as follows:
Humanity is elusive, while the path to immortality is vast. The ghost road is happy, it is the door of life. Life is precious in the immortal way, and death is precious in the ghost way. Immortals always bring good luck, ghosts always bring misfortune. The sky is clear and refreshing, and the tragic song is clear in the sky. I only hope that immortality will be achieved, but I don’t want humanity to be poor. There are thousands of ghosts in Quanqu Mansion, the northern capital. But if you want to curb people's calculations, they will cut off people's life gates. A man sang a song in the cave to take pictures of Beiluofeng. Chant the evil spirit of Zoroastrianism and kill the six ghosts. The heavens are full of energy, and my Tao is prosperous.
Extended information:
1. The full name of the Sutra of Saving People is "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Immeasurable Sutra of High Grades for Saving People". It is a Taoist theological work with far-reaching philosophical thoughts. It was listed as the opening scripture in the "Zhengtong Tao Zang" of the Ming Dynasty. It is known as the head of the group of sutras, the sect of all dharma, and the source of all dharma realms. It is the core classic of the Zhengyi Sanshan Fulu Lingbao sect of Taoism.
2. Influenced by the Song Dynasty’s idea of ??advocating old people and advocating Taoism, Song Zhenzong and Song Huizong even wrote prefaces to "The Book of Saviors". Among them, the Tang and Song Dynasties, when Taoist thought was prevalent, had the most commentaries and the most sophisticated theories.
3. The philosophical thought contained in "The Book of Saviors" itself is mainly the theory of the creation of the universe. The author of "The Book of Saviors" and the other three annotators, Yan Dong, Xue Youqi, and Li Shaowei, were greatly influenced by the philosophy of the Han Dynasty.
They are basically Qi monists, believing that Qi generates everything. This Qi means the original substance and the cause of all things, and has no ontological meaning. "The Book of Saviors", Yan Dong, Xue Youqi, and Cheng Xuanying all believe that the first calamity at the beginning of the universe was called Yankang, followed by Longhan, and then Chiming.
