The Huang Juzhen 黄居真

The Huang Juzhen 黄居真

Paul Peng
Huang Juzhen was a figure of the Northern Song Dynasty, known by the Taoist title "Master Xujingren" (Virtual Tranquility Person). He wrote Annotations on the Yellow Emperor's Hidden Talisman Classic, a one-volume work that circulated among the people.
Most of his annotations elaborate on the principle of the integration of the way of heaven and human nature. He argued that "When in motion, one is in harmony with the divine; when at rest, one is united with the divine. One becomes one with the vast cosmos and befriends the creator of all things" and that "When one's essence and nature are undifferentiated, this is called attaining the Dao (the Way)."
