Who led the Mahayana Uprising and put forward the slogan that the new Buddha was born and the old demon was eliminated?

The Mahayana Uprising (Faqing Uprising) took place during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it was the largest people's uprising under the banner of religion in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Due to the prevalence of Buddhism in the Northern Wei Dynasty, there was a fierce struggle between monks because of the disparity in political and economic status.

After Emperor Xiaowen succeeded to the throne, the factional struggle within Buddhism intensified and gradually evolved into a social class struggle.

Faced with this situation, the rulers of the Northern Wei Dynasty supported some monks to talk about Zen, while forbidding others to gather disciples to preach. Therefore, some monks began to praise the wisdom of the rulers, while others openly destroyed temples and burned scriptures and rebelled.

In 473 AD, Saman Yin Hui rallied to revolt. In 48 1 a.d., Samana Faxiu rebelled in Pingcheng, Kyoto. Besides civilians and slaves, there were many bureaucrats. In 5 14 AD, Shaman Liu Sengshao held an activity in Youzhou, claiming to be "the king of the country and the king of the Ming Dynasty". In May15, with the support of Li Guibo, a native of Bohai Sea, Shaman Faqing and Hui Hui from Jizhou (now Ji County, Hebei Province) got together in Fucheng, Wuyi County. Fa Qing named Li Guibo as the top ten living bodhisattvas, generals in the underworld and Hanwang, and gave him the name Mahayana.

Mahayana believers burned temples, statues and monks and nuns under the banner of "New Buddha was born, and all demons were eliminated", which shocked the ruling and opposition parties for a while. In July of that year, Yao Yuan of the Northern Wei Dynasty led 100,000 soldiers to Jizhou to suppress the uprising. In mid-September, the insurgents were defeated, and many people 100, including Faqing, Hui Hui and their leaders, were all killed, and tens of thousands of insurgents were massacred.

Buddhism has a history of more than 2,500 years, which was founded by Gautama Siddharta, the prince of Kapilowei Kingdom in ancient India (now in Nepal) (refer to Buddha's birthday). Western countries generally believe that Buddhism originated in India, while India is actually trying to shape the image of a "Buddhist holy land". This has made many people have the illusion that the Buddha was born in India, which has always made the Nepalese people dissatisfied. Buddhism is also one of the three major religions in the world. Buddha means "awakening". Buddha is also known as Tathagata, repentance, enlightenment, clear behavior, good death, popular understanding, supreme master, ruler, teacher of heaven and man, and Buddha. Buddhism attaches importance to the progress and consciousness of human mind and morality. The purpose of practicing Buddhism is to discover the truth of life and the universe according to Siddhartha's practice method, and finally transcend life and death and suffering, cut off all troubles and get relief. The new name of the Buddha is Gautama (Gotama), and the old name is Gotama; Because he belongs to the Sākya family, people also call him Sakyamuni.
