THE LINGBAO DAOISM TEACHINGS ON “ENLIGHTENMENT”

Sometime in 2026 (date to be announced), to celebrate the completion of his seven Zhengyi Daoist books on ancient Lingbao teachings (i.e., 3 - “The Jade Mirror of Lingbao Magic” and the 4 - “Lingbao Great Laws & Highest Teachings”), Professor Johnson will offer a special 3-year Lingbao (Numinous Treasure) Daoist Priest Ordination course.

This final course on Daoist Mysticism is open to the public, and this “Supernatural Treasure”...

This is the fourth and final textbook of the “Lingbao Great Laws and Highest Teachings.” This last installment includes the translations and esoteric commentaries covering chapters 66-72 of the original volume text.

This set of mystical teachings starts with special instructions surrounding the skill of summoning and commanding the various Divine Tiger Generals, as well as various ritual paraphernalia used to animate corpses.

Also included in this final text is a detailed “Glossary of Terms,” added to assist students of the “Way” (Dao) in comprehending the various teachings hidden within the esoteric terminologies and ancient symbology mentioned in early Lingbao Daoist texts.

This is the third of four presentations of the “Lingbao Great Laws and Highest Teachings.” This installment includes the translations and esoteric commentaries covering chapters 49-65 of the original 72-volume text.

This set of mystical teachings starts with special instructions surrounding the skill of summoning and commanding talisman spirits, lighting lanterns to break open spiritual prisons, locating and rescuing dead Hun souls, the nine refinements used to animate corpses, and a special Appendix on Corpse Magic.
