If Jew as an ethnicity is the onlycivilization never disrupted, China as a country is one too.
Ancient Babylon is the oldestcivilization. Code of Hammurabi was enacted in about 1754 BC, and is the oldestwell-preserved law code, whose most famous principle is"an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth". This is the oldest exampleof the rule of law. However, Ancient Babylon as a country was short-lived withonly 7 kings. Ancient Egypt also boasts of highly developed civilization: thepowerful imperial court, the magnificent pyramid, and the sophisticatedengineering admirable even by today’s standards.However, Ancient Egypt as a country was also short-lived with only 6 kings.Ancient India gave birth to the Buddhist culture, which, in the eyes of thishumble author, is the highest point in the entirehistory of human civilization. But with the invasion of foreign conquerors, notonly the Buddhist culture gradually faded out of India, but also the indigenousIndians of yellow race were largely replaced by the Aryans.
Ofthe four great ancient civilizations,only China is preserved with the coherent language, characters, and ethnicity.Chinese civilization is the only one which survives 5000 years with unmatchableconsistency. Even though, China was invaded many times bydifferent barbarians and even conquered by two (Mongolian and Manchu). However,Chinese civilization was never interrupted, and it kept integrating differentbarbarians into its system and made them its own in the end. Why is China solucky? A lot of it could be attributed to China’s geography: the Tibet plateauand the great deserts in the Northwest China protected it fromthe Islamic invasion for hundreds of years while the other three of the fourgreat ancient civilizations were all destroyed by the Islamic conquerors at onetime or another. Another attribution is Chinese civilization is so inclusivethat it assimilates all the conquerors.
The core of Chinese civilization isConfucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism.The roots of these three schools of thoughts are different, not to mentionthat Buddhism came from India; however, they have one thing in common: believein and follow “the underlying natural order of the Universe”. To Confucians,this underlying natural order of the Universe is “Tian”; to Taoist, it’s “Tao”;and, to Buddhist, it’s Dharmakāya (Vairocana). Allthese natural orders of the universe can be understood as the different levelsof spiritual existence. Wang Yangming (31 October 1472 – 9 January 1529), aChinese Neo-Confucian philosopher during the Ming dynasty,integrated Confucianism with Buddhismand Taoism to create Yangming School of Mind, and is revered as a saint.
In my opinion, theChinese civilization and European civilization has a similar stage in thedevelopment process, that is, China's era of King Zhou of Shang (around 1050BC) and Rome Empire’s period of Caligula (AD 37 to 41 years), which were bothof immorality. The common characteristic of the two periods is that bothcivilizations are in the phase of animal desires,that is, the pursuit of sexual intercourse and drinking is the first and only pursuitof human being as animal. There was God, but God's moral constraints on peoplewas almost non-existent then. KingZhou of Shang is the last king of theChinese Shang dynasty, he set up the "Wine Pool and Meat Forest" forthe carnival of promiscuous carnal indulgence with Da Ji and other women; Caligulawas promiscuous with his sister, let his wife openly nakedfor his cronies to judge; He also ordered a large number of men and womenhaving promiscuous sex. The other common characteristic of the two periods isthe appalling cruelty, with which ministers and people being killed brutally atwill. Their ending is also strikingly similar: King Zhou of Shang wasoverthrown by King Wu of Zhou (the founding father of the Zhou Dynasty, about1087 BC - 1043), and was forced to die by self-immolation; In January 41 AD,Praetorian Guard rebelled, chopped off Canigulla's penis and head, and killedhis wife and daughter as well.
China Before King Zhou ofShang, and Europe before Canigula, both can be said as civilizations withbarbarian characteristics and lack of spiritual self-discipline since the promiscuity,brutality and animal desires of people during that period were largely leftunchecked, the then rulers and nobles were appalledby the results, which inevitably led to their reflections tofind a way to check and balance people’s inner crazy beasts.
Therefore,in 1046 BC when the Western Zhou Dynasty was just founded, Duke of Zhou (WesternZhou politician - 1105 BC) developed Zhou Li--a ritual systemwhich was the source of later Confucianism; and even though Jesus (AD - 33) wasexecuted by the Roman empire, but in the subsequent two or three hundred years,the Christianity he founded gradually invaded the spiritual emptiness of theRoman city. Because the ruling nobility discovered that Christianity could not onlyfill the empty souls of their carnal indulgence, but also allow the slaves tohave the last hope to enter heaven after their lives of endless hardship, and helptame the slaves at zero cost in the short term. Finally, in 311 AD, Constantinethe Great and Licinius jointly issued the "Edict of Milan " to allowChristians freedom of religion, without discrimination. This royal decree was amilestone in the history of Christianity. Later, Christianitybecame the state religion of Rome. TheChurch gradually became defining institution of the Roman Empire. After thefall of the Roman Empire in the 5th century, there emerged no single powerfulsecular governments in the West, but there was a central ecclesiastical powerin Rome, the Catholic Church. In this power vacuum, the Church rose to becomethe dominant power in the West. In essence, the earliest vision of Christendomwas a vision of a Christian theocracy, a government founded upon and upholdingChristian values, whose institutions are spread through and over with Christiandoctrine. The specific relationship between the political leaders and theclergy varied but, in theory, the national and political divisions were attimes subsumed under the leadership of the Catholic Church as an institution.It was too late for Romans to find out the grave cost of adopting Christianity.
Zhou Li and Christianity can be seen asthe upgrade of China and Europe from the primitive cultures to the civilizedsocieties. The difference is that Zhou Li is only a rule of conduct and a moralcode of conduct for the rulers and their subjects, which was later inherited byConfucius(Chinesephilosopher,551BC –479 BC). With the endorsement of Emperor Wu of Han, Dong Zhongshu promoted thisrule of conduct as the heavenly doctrine, with which the emperor shepherds thepeople on behalf of the heaven. Christianity is different, and it goes furtherthan a rule of conduct. Not only, it dictates the secular moral norms, but alsolay down the only way people can interact with god. That is, faithfullyexecuting the will of God so that their places in heaven after death can besecured. "God" is the only God; he appears as a personified image,and is represented by Jesus. Such is the boundary within which people caninterpret God. In so doing, it pits human against God, which means no matterhow hard one works on one’s spiritual practice, one cannot become God butmerely the servants of God. This narrative ultimately leads to the"theocracy”, which the Roman Catholic Church tried feverishly toaccomplish across Europe in the middle ages. By the way, the monotheism of Christianity is inheritedfrom Judaism. Zhou Li is different, and it is trying to find and obey the“heavenly doctrine ": by performing rituals to worship heaven, the kingsobtain the privilege to shepherd the people on behalf of the heaven, but itdoes not exclude people frominteracting with God directly.
So, why do Christianityand Judaism monopolize the way people can interact with God, while suchmonopoly never exists in China? This has something to do withYellow Emperor(2717 BC-2599 BC)--the initiator ofChinese civilization.
The fundamental doctrinal source forChinese medicine, and the most famous ancient book of Chinese medicine--Huangdi Neijing[1]stated in the Chapter 1:Discourse on the True:
When he came to life, he had magic power like a spirit.
While he was [still] weak , he could speak.
While he was [still] young , he was quick ofapprehension.
After he had grown up, he was sincere and skillfull.
After he had matured , he ascended to heaven.
Now, he asked the Heavenly Teacher:
“I have heard that
the people of high antiquity,
in [the sequence of] spring and autumn, all exceeded10one hundred years.
But in their movements and activities there was noweakening.
As for the people of today,
after one half of a hundred years, the movements andactivities of all of them
weaken.
Is this because the times are different?
Or is it that the people have lost this [ability]?”
Qi Bo responded:
“The people of high antiquity,
those who knew the Way,
they modeled [their behavior] on yin and yang and
they complied with the arts and the calculations.
[Their] eating and drinking was moderate.
[Their] rising and resting had regularity.
They did not tax [themselves] with meaningless work.
Hence,
they were able to keep physical appearance and spirittogether,
and to exhaust the years [allotted by] heaven.
Their life span exceeded one hundred years before theydeparted.[2]
This is to say that theYellow Emperor was born very smart, in the adulthood ascended the throne, asked"heavenly teacher"--Qi Bo questions about health and regimen, Qi Boanswered all his questions, and the Yellow Emperor recorded all theseconversations, which became Huangdi Neijing.
Here, it is veryimportant that the word "heavenly teacher" appears, which can beinterpreted as "the teacher with supernatural power and access to heavenand was later frequently used by Taoists. Of course, “heavenly teacher"can also be interpreted as "the teacher of Son of Heaven”. However, thereare claims that the “Huangdi Neijing” was not written by the Yellow Emperor,and it is generally dated by scholars to between the late Warring States period(475-221 BC) and the Han dynasty (206 BCE–220 CE).The authorshipof it is not of particular importance. What’s important and magical is itscontent, especially the "twelve meridians" theory,which cannot be found and proved by modern anatomy, but is proved effective andaccurate by thousands of years of Traditional Chinese medical practice. Withthe overseasspread of Chinese traditional medicine in recent years, moreand more foreigners can feel its magic as well. It is worth emphasizing thatthe traditional Chinese medicine, which has evolved from Huangdi Neijing of theYellow Emperor, has effectively protected the health of the Chinese people forthousands of years and its cost is amazingly low compared to the modern Westernmedicine.
TheYellow Emperor is both the ancestor of the Han Chinese and the founder of itssecular power, and it was said that in the end he became an immortal (god). Hegot the revelation of the knowledge of Chinese medicine from heavenlyteacher--Qibo, and Qibo was enlightened with that knowledge by an etherealbeing from the heavens. Qibo proved that normal persons can reach the heavensthrough spiritual practices, which makes later king, Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng(founder of the Qin Dynasty, the founder of the Chinese emperor system, 210 BC- 259 BC) and the Emperor Wu of Han (the Han Dynasty's most influential emperor156 BC - 87 BC Year) dared not monopolize the access to heaven. Thus, Chinesecivilization forms an open attitude towards Gods and heavens, which is fullyexhibited by Taoism. After The Yellow Emperor, Lao Tzu (Warring States thinkers571 BC - 471 BC ) would carried forward Taoism to its intellectual height.According to Taoist doctrine,one should “unite the body and the spirit asone and embrace the “Oneness” without departing from the great Tao;achieve harmony with such gentleness byholding on to the true spirit within”;“achieve the ultimate void andmaintain calmness with sincerity”. Thus, “Spirit, by attaining the Oneness became divine”.[3] Inother words, one's consciousness becomes quiet and clean, one's eyes, ears,nose, tongue, body, and mind are closed off or shut down; one's distractionsare put down, one's energy is focused on the oneness, and thus, one can get intouch with the gods through the oneness, see the ultimate truth of universe,and even becomes God. About this, Chuang Tzu(Chinese Philosopher,369BC-286BC)Said:‘ThePerfect man has no (thought of) self; the Spirit‐like man, none of merit; theSagely‐minded man, none of fame.'[4]。” Bydoing so, Taoist laid down the foundations for Buddhismto be adopted later in China.
As a result, Taoism and Confucianism inthe early Chinese culture had an interesting distinction. Confucian sphere ofinfluence is the order of secular society, responsible for the relationshipbetween kings and subjects and of people. Although Confucius(551 BC – 479 BC) visited Lao Tzu (571 BC - 471 BC) and admired him, but Confucianismshows no interest in spiritual practices which are at the core of Taoism.——“When you do not yet understand life,how could you understand death?” “Confucius(551 BC – 479 BC) avoids answering questions about servingspirits, and about death.”[5];Taoist sphere ofinfluence lies in the spiritual practices to get out of the secular society andtry to become the immortals- that is, the relationship between man and heaven.Apart from striving for immortality, a Taoist practitioner can also try topredict the future with the methods from I Ching, Qi Men Dun Jia, and Da LiuRen etc. That is to say, a Taoist practitioner can develop a relationship withheavens closer than the emperor. Thus Taoism become the constraint and guidance(even though misleading sometime) which the imperial power can turn to attimes.
Taoist spiritualpractices and Confuciangovernance of secular society were linked together bythe emperor. Emperor Wu of Hanwas such an emperor, who notonly enjoyed being the supreme ruler of secularsociety, but also craved the immortality. He wanted to become an immortal, butdidn’t want to give up the absolute power and fortune as the emperor. Asa result, some Taoist priests took advantage of the opportunity to offerEmperor Wu pellets and proclaim pellets(Dan) conferred immortality. The risk ofconsuming Dan was huge since it mostly is poisonous. Dan was originally made tohelp Taoist ascetics kill the microorganisms in their bodies - to free the"flesh" of the shackles, so that a lighter soul can get rid of theshackles to ascend to heaven. But the Chinese emperors were self-indulgent withwine, meat and sex, and consuming Dan often led them to promiscuity or suddendeath. Fortunately for Emperor Wu, he felt great misgiving for his extravagantendeavor in his late years. Thus, he apologized to his empire about his errorof judgment in a public edict known as the Repenting Edict of Luntai.
Sincethe Taoist spiritualpracticesare full of mysteries, people find it extremely hard to follow them. EvenCantong qi[6], one of the mostreadable Taoist classic on spiritual practices, is cryptic to most people.Because Taoism did not emphasize abstinence, the result of its combination withthe aristocratic lifestyle of indulgence is moral decay - in the period of Jin dynasty(AD317 -420 years), it became fashionable for the nobility to take FiveMinerals Powder[7], which marked thebeginning of the decay of Taoism, and created the social vacuum for theintroduction of Buddhism into China.
Fortunately, Chinese is open to thepossibility that men can become ethereal beings through spiritual practices.Thus, when the more rational, systematic and verifiable way of spiritualpractices--Indian Buddhism was widely introduced in China after the Eastern HanDynasty, Chinese embraced it warmly. In the more than 600 years from the periodof Emperor Ming of Han to the Dang Dynasty, more than 100 Buddhist masters,such as Kumarajiva (AD 344-413), the Master of Zhendi (AD 491-569), the Masterof Xuanzang (AD 602-664 ), Siksananda(AD 652-710), and the Master of Yijing (AD635-713), led the systematic translation of Buddhist scriptures one afteranother with the full support of the whole nation. Therefore, the majority ofBuddhist scriptures are preserved in China while Buddhism as a wholewas utterly destroyed by Muslim invasions in India.
The introduction ofBuddhism made the Chinese ruling elites and intellectuals ecstatic, mostlybecause the Dharma extricated them from the confounding mystique of the Taoism,so that they clearly understood the relationship between man and heaven, withGod, with nature, with the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas; and completely solved themysteries where the human being comes from, where he dies, and how the soulcould live forever. Buddhism gives a variety of methods of spiritualemancipation: 1, Dhyana and chanting mantras can pave the way to become arhats,Bodhisattvas or Buddhas[8]; 2, chanting "namoamitabha Buddha" or "namoa valokiteśvara bodhisattva", one canenter Sukhavati upon death - a joyous world, soft and glowing, filled with themusic of birds and the tinkling of trees adorned with precious jewels andgarlands of golden bells, where Amitabha sits on a lotus in the midst of aterraced pond, attended by the bodhisattvas Avalokiteshvara andMahasthamaprapta;[9] 3, it also admitted thateven without the Buddhist practices, simply through the Taoist meditation, onecan also become an ethereal being[10].
The greateststrength of Buddhism lies not only in its pathof spiritual emancipation, but also in its amazingly extensive ideologicalsystem that is almost perfect and impregnableto any attacks on its logic and cognition. Buddhism completely conquered themost intelligent Chinese people. From the period of Emperor Taizong of Tang(598 AD - 649 AD) to that of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang (685 AD-762 AD) --thehighest peak in Chinese civilization, Buddhism almost enjoyed thestatus of the state religion. With Buddhismblending harmoniously with Confucianism and Taoism, Tang Dynasty was thepinnacle of world civilization.
Atop the historical peak of Chinesecivilization is EmperorTaizong of Tang. He is a devoutBuddhist. He first came in contact with Buddhism when he visited Famen Templeas a young man after victoriously quenching a rebellion. When the emperor cameto throne, he ordered the repair of the pagoda of Famen Temple(AD 631).When theunderground palace opened, the finger sarira of Sakyamuni wasfound. Emperor Taizong considered this the most auspicious sign, and decided toenshrine and worship it in the name of the royal family. This was the beginningof royal tradition of worshiping the finger sarira of Sakyamuni. There was afamous saying about this:“The underground palace where the finger sarira isenshrined is opened once every 30 years. Once it is open, the crops are ripeand the war ends.” in the grand ceremony. The son of Emperor Taizong of Tang, EmperorGaozong of Tang went further by welcoming the finger sarira himself to theRoyal Palace in Luoyang for worshiping. The sixth and last time when the royalfamily of Tang Dynasty welcomed the finger sarira to the Royal Palace forworshiping is the 14 year of Xiantong during the reign of Emperor Yizong. Thewelcoming ceremony was of massive scale, most offerings, and greatest cost. At thattime, the road from Famen Temple to the Capital Changan was crowded with peopleand vehicles day and night, and the whole capital turned out. The emperorhimself bowed in worship atop the gate tower while all the officials,intellectuals and commoners greeting in the street.
After the Flourishing Period of the TangDynasty, due to the social and economic decline, Buddhism became tooextravagant, the large number of monks were too costly for the society tosupport, and Emperor Wuzong of Tang(814 ADto 846 AD) started the religious persecution of Buddhism, ultimatelyconfiscating the Buddhist temple properties, destroying 4,600 Buddhist templesand 40,000 shrines, and removing 260,500 monks and nuns from the monasteries.The close tie between Buddhism and the royal family was then severed, but thesupreme status of Buddhism in the Chinese civilization had been firmlysolidified, especially for those seeking greatest wisdom. Since then, most ofthe Chinese elites would seek spiritual emancipation through thespiritual practices of Buddhism or Taoism, and regarded becoming etherealbeings and Bodhisattvas as their highest pursuit.
After the native Taoism proclaimedthat people could become ethereal beings–gods through spiritual practices, theBuddhism introduced from India further indicated that people could transcendlife and death, become arhats, Bodhisattvas or Buddhas through spiritualemancipation. Thus, a great many Chinese elites would turn their greatestattention to spiritual emancipation and eternal happiness, the rulers were alsowilling to admit that they rule the secular society on behalf of the"heaven" and Confucianists also believed thatthe harmony among people is in line with the “Tao” of "Heaven". As aresult, from then on, the Han Chinese regimes lost the great desire to constantlyimprove the weaponry to defeat other countries and conquer foreign lands, andit’s no surprise that Chinese territory has never exceeded thatof the Tang Dynasty at its peak.
On the upgrade path, thehuman civilization can be seen to have three versions: the version 1.0 is ofanimal desire, the version 2.0 is of humanity, and the version 3.0 is of divinity.The version 1.0 of Chinese civilization started from the period of King Zhou ofShang, the version 2.0 started from the rise of Confucianism, and the version3.0 started from the ascendancy of Taoism and Buddhism. In the version 3.0 ofChinese civilization, people could transcend life and death, and become etherealbeings, arhats, Bodhisattvas or Buddhas through spiritual emancipation. People’spursuit can rise above secular achievements of power, money and fame towards divinity.The version 1.0of western civilization started from Rome Empire’s period of Caligula, and theversion 2.0 started since Christianity became the mainstay of westernreligions. Because the monotheism of Judaism and Christianity denies people thepath to become ethereal beings--gods, the western civilization never has achance to get to its version 3.0. With the later corruption of Christianity, itwas rejected by many Western elites, and in the process of that rejection, theempiricism based on human perceptron grows rampantly. At the peak of theempiricism, Social Darwinism was born so that the Western civilization camefull circle to its version 1.0—the era of animal desire. Through the colonialaggression and cultural invasion, the Western civilization wants toforce the Chinese civilization back to the era of animal desire as well. Andright now China is descending in its own abyss of animal desire. Therefore, inessence, the crisis now facing the human civilization is the violent clash ofthe animal desires between the East and the West and the possible mutualannihilation.
Becausethe Chinese civilization lacked the ambition for overseas aggression, theChinese people, though invented the gunpowder, and reached the world's leadinglevel of guns and artillery technology, they never applied that technology toconquer other countries like the westerners once did. For Chinese people then,the gunpowder was mostly for making fireworks to provide the entertainmentsespecially for kids. As for maritime capabilities, Chinese people used thecompass for maritime navigation almost 80 years before the European, and by thebeginning of the Ming Dynasty, China had reached a peak of naval technologyunsurpassed in the world. The expeditionary fleet commanded by Admiral Zheng Hewas the strongest maritime force the world then had ever seen, could easilyconquered the Indian Ocean coastal countries, but they just settled fordiplomacy and trade instead. This is a stark contrast to the Europeans’aggressive colonization after the acquisition of gunpowder and navigationtechnology. The fundamental reason for this is that the top elites in Chinaregard it the highest pursuit to conquer their own desires, liberate their ownsouls, and become ethereal beings and things beyond, while western top eliteswere hopeless to fully liberate their souls, and they turn to conquer othersand the world instead as it is the only way to vindicate their ownsignificance.
In the doctrine ofBuddhism, the pursuit of spiritual liberation is not to completely abandonone’s own people, for example, in Mahayana Dharma, Bodhisattva is at the highlevel of Buddhist practice, whose goal is to save all sentient beings fromsuffering and attain Buddhahood only as a result of that. After Buddhismwas virtually extinct in India, Chinese civilization became themain carrier of Mahayana Buddhism, China became the place where most of thereincarnated Bodhisattvas practice Buddhism, and therefore, Chinesecivilization naturally became the civilization blessed and protectedby the Bodhisattvas.
Byand large, Chinese civilization has a miraculous attribute:whenever it suffers a great catastrophe, there will always emerge great heroesto save the nation. For example, during the Uprising of theFive Barbarians (304 – 316), the five barbaric nomadictribes invaded the northern China and started massacring Han Chinese. Theatrocities inflicted upon Han Chinese were deeply appalling,one of which is they captured many Han Chinese girls to rape at night and feastupon in the evening, and they called these Han Chinese girls "two-footedgoats". The Han Chinese in the northern China was nearly wiped out. Atthis time, A Han Chinese nationalist military leader--Ran Min (? - 352) roseagainst all the barbarians,he repeatedly defeated barbarian armies several times the size of his, andsystematically massacred the Five Barbarians.Ran Min virtually exterminated of all the Jie people and most of the FiveBarbarians in the northern China. Because of Ran Min, the Five Barbariansdidn’t get to invade the southern China or massacred Han Chinese completely.Even though, Ran Min was later defeated and killed by a Barbarian Kingdom-TheYan, Han Chinese as a race was saved after all.
Another great hero is MaoZedong. Mao led the revolutionary force to liberate almost the whole China fromwar lords, western colonialism, and Japanese invasion after just 15 years atthe helm of CPC. China became a third largest independent country from thebrink of break-up and colonization in 1949, which was nothing short of amiracle.
Today, when faced withthe lethal challenge of Westerncivilization--especially theintimidation of the superior American military forces, a large number ofscientific and technological talents emerge who help China catch up with thewest. As a matter of fact, in the field of the military technology, China notonly plays catch up, but also gains edges over the west in certain areas suchas quantum communications and laser weapons. Consideringhow backward China was not so long ago,China’s catching with the West is simply a miracle.
Perhaps it can be said that the blessings and protection of theBodhisattvas is the core reason that even though Chinese civilization isplagued by calamities in the past 2000-plus years, it survives largely intact tothis day.
