"The Book of Wisdom and Life", page 118, an ancient book of Taoist cultivation in the Qing Dynasty
The ancient Taoist cultivation book "Wisdom Sutra" is one of the classics in Taoist literature, and its profound ideological connotation and rich cultivation methods have been admired and used for reference by later generations.
In the Qing Dynasty, it was precisely because of the social unrest and the growing demand for supernatural powers and spiritual cultivation that the influence of the Hui Ming Jing was further expanded.
In the "Wisdom Sutra" with the core idea of "boundless world", the concept of returning to the basics and self-cultivation is proposed, and the liberation and sublimation of the soul are achieved through various methods of health preservation, meditation and pranayama.
Some of these methods are similar to today's meditation, yoga, qigong, etc., through practice, to improve physical and mental health, develop potential, and achieve peace and detachment of the mind. For example, the Tang Dynasty Taoist master Chen Yao was based on the guidance in the "Wisdom Sutra", through strict cultivation and meditation, and finally reached the realm of physical and mental unity, and his longevity was abnormal.
Therefore, as an important Taoist classic, the Wisdom Sutra not only had a profound impact on society and individual cultivation in the Qing Dynasty, but also has important theoretical and guiding significance for exploring the issues of spiritual liberation and physical and mental balance in contemporary times.
