3. Taoism is an active religion with polytheism, strong national color and no eschatology;
4. Taoism takes palaces, temples, palaces, temples and altars as places for Taoist priests and female crowns to worship and lecture. Dry gods are called Buddha, God, Great Emperor, Emperor and True King; Shen Kun is called Yuan Jun, mother, queen, princess and wife; Protector is called Lingguan, Tianjun or Marshal; The god of plague or the god of protecting the environment is often called king, chitose or monarch. In Buddhism, monasteries, temples, Jing She and Lan Ruo are places where monks and nuns practice dharma and become Buddhists.

6. The etiquette of Taoist laymen, when they go to the altar, they must wear formal dresses and finally be crowned. After being crowned, you are absorbed in your thoughts. You shouldn't talk to others casually. You can hold the dust in your hand or at best, or you can not hold it; When you are empty-handed, you must hold Tai Chi in your left hand, put it on your chest, and pinch your fingers in your right hand. When walking the altar, take off your hat before you can speak; When you wear a dress, you should hand it over. Don't shake hands with others. It's a gift.
The layman bows, clenches his fist with his right hand, and protects his right fist with his left hand. If not ten, he knelt down and went to Qi Mei to bow. When you meet someone with something in your hand, you will bend your index finger (including the meaning of three cleanses in one breath) as a gift, which is called "boundless view", "boundless Buddha", "compassion" or kindness.
In ancient times, it was four worships and eight worships. Today, it is the highest ceremony of three kneeling and nine worships. Where there is a god, such as a temple or an altar, when it is necessary to worship the elders, please ask the recipient to stand on the right side of the shrine to worship God. Usually limited to a ceremony (a bow).
Taoism respects the left hand (Chu people are still left, Lao Tzu and Chu people are also left), so left is the big side. Incense, put incense in the furnace with your left hand; When kneeling, the right knee bends first and the left knee bends later; When you get up, your left knee gets up first and your right knee gets up later. However, kneel at the same time and get up at the same time.
Kundao female laymen salute in the same way as Dadao male laymen. Only by lowering your head can you get down to your knees and up to your chin. You don't have to be Qi Mei, but you still have to be dignified and rigorous.
Bow down with incense: put the incense on your chest with both hands (not on Yumei or on your head). I can't lift my eyebrows when I worship. Bow down respectfully when you worship, and it looks like half a moon in the sky. Empty-handed worship posture: bow with both hands, and the body needs to be bent like a half moon in the sky.
7. Taoist classics, Taoist classics, all want to listen to the Tao first by chanting. When chanting, you sit up and burn incense, concentrate on your worries, lead a totally clean life, be respectful and respectful, recite the mantra, and silently attend the wall. Zhi Zhi knows nature, and he really begins to feel the wonderful sound, and his fate is centrifugal. Once you get it, you have the power to represent heaven, so it is a word, and your merits are boundless. Therefore, it has a ritual of passing on scriptures. Taoist classics can be divided into three parts: first, chanting scriptures, aiming at promoting the truth; One kind is to recite the scriptures silently, aiming at knowing the mystery silently; One is chanting, the purpose is to quote Hyunri.
8, Taoist fasting period, fasting: in addition to long fasting, each has a regular period. Taoism can drink alcohol, not to not get drunk, but to not get drunk; You can eat meat, so the kitchen is called Xianlin Pavilion (to show the meaning of Xianlin Milk), but it is not allowed to be banned. For example, when I was sweeping the grave, I prayed for the peace of Qingji. The first thing was the destination of believers in Xinjiang. Xian Yi fasted to show sincerity and invited Tian Jian; It is forbidden to eat meat during this period (from pending order to closing order). There are also three kinds of disgust, "Heaven hates geese, earth hates dogs, and water hates turtles". People who regard justice and justice as moral piety and decide to fast on the first day, 15th, 9th, 19th and 29th of the lunar new year or the gods' own Christmas.
9. The house of believers is forbidden, Taoism lacks desire to "nourish essence", eats less "nourish qi", sleeps "nourish spirit" and maintains "spirit" is the key to long-term growth. Monks aim at refining gas and spirit, but refining spirit is still empty. Therefore, raising, preserving and refining essence is a necessary process, and sexual intercourse is detrimental to essence, so Taoism must have a house ban. The basis of Taoist self-cultivation is the prohibition of lust, small negligence, and giving up all achievements. Therefore, monks regard lust as snakes and scorpions and are detained thousands of miles away.
10. There are two kinds of Taoist temples, one is called a small courtyard, which has the obligation to pass on the classics and preach the law; Second, the Shifang Jungle, the first temple established in each province, has the privilege of spreading news and appointing and dismissing the abbot of Taoist temples, as well as the power and responsibility of recruiting Taoist priests and punishing believers.
Taoist priests can also be divided into registered monks and monks who become monks: registered monks can give up being apprentices in the small courtyard and still be educated at home, but they don't have to wear clothes. For example, if you foster in a temple, you need to go home from the temple when you grow up, and then you can get married; People who practice becoming monks must also be introduced to the Taoist temple after a certain day, so the Taoist priest "wears a hairpin" for them, which means that they will be given the name of a Taoist for the first time. From then on, they will tie a bun, put on robes and high socks with white cloth, walk in blue shoes, learn Chinese characters and read classics, sweep the floor and cook, and carry water for free.
If it's time for the ten-square jungle to be ordained, the Taoist priest will sign up for the exam and give him higher precepts before he is qualified to be a Taoist priest. Those who pass the exam as scheduled and win the first place in Tian Zi must stay in Taoist Temple (Shifang Jungle) to learn all the rules of the big jungle in case they become deacons or abbots of the first temple in the future. The rest are given clothes, crowns and precepts, and still go back to the small courtyard to continue their training. A Taoist who lives in a fire does not necessarily live in a temple except to learn from his teacher. Their preaching and precepts, like precedents, have to stay at home, but the taboos are wider.
