Wu Liu School
The Wu-Liu school ( Chinese 伍 柳 派 , Pinyin Wu-Liu pai , English Wu-Liu school ) is a Taoist school. It was one of the most influential schools of Inner Alchemy ( Neidan ), which was founded towards the end of the Ming and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty and emerged from the Dragon Gate School (Longmen) of Quanzhen Daoism . It is named after its founders Wu Shouyang ( 伍守陽 / 伍守阳 ; alias Chongkongzi 沖 空子 ; 1563-1644) and Liu Huayang ( 劉華陽 / 柳华阳 ; fl. 1736), both of whom come from Yuzhang 豫章 (today's Nanchang南昌).
The scripts Tianxian zhengli天仙 正理 and Xianfo hezong仙佛 合 宗are from Wu Shouyang, the scripts Jinxian zhenglun金 仙 正 论 and Huiming jing慧命 经 are from Liu Huayang . They were later printed together under the title Wu-Liu xianzong伍 柳仙宗.
