Arcane Pearl Commentary Written By Hengyuezhenzi

According to tradition, The Mysterious Pearl Heart Mirror was written by Cui Shaoxuan, a woman of the Tang Dynasty, with annotations by Wang Sunzhi, the Dweller in Truth. Its core tenet expounds the Taoist path of upholding the One to achieve emptiness and practicing inner cultivation in tranquility.

It is suspected to be a different transmitted version of the same book.
