A Study Of The Relationship Between The Plague Of The Late Han Dynasty And The Wei Dynasty And Its Relationship With The Early Taoism Transmutation

During the period from the end of the Han Dynasty to that of the Wei and Jin periods,the disasters were still frequent,and among them,plagues were particularly important.Due to the severe plagues,the folk beliefs of ghosts and gods gradually formed a systematic and theoretical epidemic prevention epidemic.These ideas were buried in the Eastern Han Dynasty.All of them have been embodied,and gradually evolved into one of the Taoist science instruments.In addition,the terminal theory in Taoism has also emerged.In the face of this kind of " end-of-the-world" plague,although the court took certain measures to appease the people,it did not produce much effect.Therefore,the late Han people launched unremittingly one after another protest.Among these,due to the belief in ghosts and gods that have long been dormant,the so-called " Yellow God" and "Huang Tian " and other uprisings full of primitive or early Taoist colors began to erupt.Finally,the famous Yellow Turban Uprising broke out during the Han Dynasty Emperor Guangguang and its years.The uprising,along with the regime of the ruler of Tianshi Road in Hanzhong,declared the birth of the early Taoist cult.Both Taiping Road and Tian Shi Road have received a lot of people's trust because of their different treatment of the plague from the court.They have countless fans and therefore have extremely broad and far-reaching influence.Among them,Tian Shi Dao completed the separatism of the local government and created a primitive utopian society with "people' s faith",and the Yellow Turban uprising based on the guiding ideology of Taiping Road deeply inspired the foundation of the Han Dynasty rule.The transformation of the process and Taoism has had a far-reaching impact.Taoism is a native religion in China.Its origins exist in Chinese culture.How to treat this unique indigenous religion still has important guiding significance for today's society.It can be said that from the perspective of dealing with the plague,Taoism or The Taoist mission had better methods and effects than the government under the guidance of traditional Confucianism.However,in the contest with the Han Dynasty,Taiping Road,which had a broad public base,was quickly defeated.The Han minority separatist regime,which was embraced by the people,was only Cao Wei' s ability to surrender to the Central Plains regime in the southern region was suppressed by mainstream politics from the very beginning,and Sun En-Lu ' s revolt in the Eastern Jin Dynasty also failed.In the final analysis,the social organization established by the Taoist Order is less mature than the Confucian political social organization that has been developing for more than 400 years.Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty,Taoism mostly existed in historical records as a dependency of mainstream politics and culture.As Ge Zhaoguang put it,the development of early Taoism had more of a tendency to "submit".This article believes that this history of submission is more reflected in the impact of the evolution of the environment on the rise and fall of the Taoist church,and the outbreak of the plague is undoubtedly a major incentive for the rise of the early Taoist church.
