The founder of Buddhism is Shakyamuni Buddha, after the Buddha's demise, the Buddha's great disciples Ananda and Gayatri, according to the Buddha's year of the sutra recollection of the collection of classics, the collection of the classics is very strict, there are five hundred Arhats at the same time to testify, by the first of the great disciples of the Hearing of the first Arhats Ananda to the presentation of the Arhats Ananda said every sentence, as long as there is a Arhats disapproval, then this sentence can not be asked for. Therefore, every sentence of the Tathagata was recognized and verified by the five hundred Arhats, which is the origin of the Buddhist classics. The Dharma movement of Sakyamuni Buddha is 12,000 years, the Dharma is 1,000 years, the Sangha is 1,000 years, and the End of Dharma is 10,000 years, and we are now in the End of Dharma. The origin of Buddhist sects is that after the demise of the Buddha, the monks and masters who practiced the Dharma founded different sects based on different classics of the Buddha, and there are eight sects in China, namely, Pure Sect, Tantric Sect, Huayan Sect, Dharma-Nature Sect, Dharma-Pharmakaya Sect, Zen Sect, Tiantai Sect, and Ruling Sect. Buddhism is not a religion. When Shakyamuni Buddha was alive, he never taught his disciples to worship one day, never taught them to do one day of supererogation, and never led them to practise together, but only told the truth about the universe and life, and the way to practise. Cultivation is the disciples' own business. When the Buddha was alive, there were 96 kinds of laymen in India, and many laymen came to study the Buddha's teachings, because Buddhism is not a religion, it is only an education. Buddhism was formally introduced to China in the last year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Xiaoming of the Han Dynasty sent an envoy from the Tianzhu to welcome the Buddhist monks Frank and Morten to preach the Dharma in China, and since then, Buddhism has been slowly spreading in China, and successive generations of masters have also been taking the promotion of Buddha's education as their own responsibility, and they have been practicing and studying the classics, and there have been a lot of outstanding Buddhist monks and masters in China. The emperor's examination to become a monk, just to the end of the Ming and early Qing dynasties, the Qing dynasty emperor Shunzhi, understand so good why can not let the people who have the destiny to become a monk, so the abolition of the rules of this article, his starting point is good, but but it has brought a very serious impact on the later generations, later because there is no restriction on the rules of the monk, a lot of no food, begging, etc., have run to become a monk, monks only quality greatly declined, and slowly the monk to the quality of the monk, and the monk to the emperor, the monk to the emperor's exams to become a monk. The quality of monastic talent declined greatly, and slowly monks did not study the classics, did not practice properly, and relied on the supernatural, worshipping to live, and Buddhism gradually evolved into a religion! Therefore, we must realize that Buddhism is not a religion, not superstition, it is an education, an education that everyone needs, an education of the sages, an education that enables us to live and work in peace and happiness! It is an education of the highest good!
