The All Spirits Lamp Liturgy

The All Spirits Lamp Liturgy 万灵灯仪

Paul Peng
The All Spirits Lamp Liturgy

The author is unknown.

It was probably compiled during the Yuan Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty.
Consisting of one scroll, it is included in the Weiyi (Rituals and Etiquette) category of The Dongzhen Section in the Daoist Canon.

As one of the Taoist lamp rituals, this text is used for lighting lamps to worship all spirits. The so-called "Wanling" (Ten Thousand Spirits) does not refer to a specific celestial deity, but to all divine beings. Any deity that can manifest its spirit, descend to the mortal world, protect the country and save the people, benefit others and assist all creatures, and answer every prayer may be worshipped.

Taoist practitioners can select a specific deity to worship with lamp-lighting according to their own needs and wishes, offer eulogies and declarations, and pray for the elimination of disasters and the bestowal of blessings.
