The Shangqing Dongzhen Tianbao Dadao Sanjing Baolu 上清洞真天宝大洞三景宝箓

The Precious Registers of the Three Sceneries from the Great Cavern of the Heavenly Treasure in the True Grotto of Shangqing (Shàngqīng Dòngzhēn Tiānbǎo Dàdòng Sānjǐng Bǎolù). The author is unknown.

Judging from its content and textual style, it is presumably compiled by Shangqing Taoists in the late Northern and Southern Dynasties or the Sui-Tang period.

Consisting of two scrolls, it is included in the Zhengyi Grotto (Zhèngyī Bù) of the Daoist Canon (Dàozàng).

This text compiles four types of Taoist talismans, namely The Golden Tiger Talismans of the Supreme Emperor (Tàishàng Dìjūn Jīnhǔ Fúlù), The Supreme Register of Flying Steps Through the Void (Tàishàng Fēibù Kōngcháng Lù), The Supreme Register of the Three Flights to the Two Sceneries (Tàishàng Èrjǐng Sānbēn Lù), and The Supreme Original Register of Guishan (Upper, Middle, and Lower Grades) (Tàishàng Guīshān Yuánlù [Shàngzhōngxià Sānpǐn]). All four talismans originate from early Shangqing classics, covering techniques such as summoning gods, subduing demons, pacing the stellar steps (bùgāng tàdǒu), darting toward the sun and moon, and transforming form and illusion. The essential practices for cultivating these methods lie in contemplating the gods and true realities, wearing talismans, and reciting incantations.

In addition to copying the four sets of talismans, the text elaborates on the covenantal rituals, precepts, and methods for transmitting and using the talismans.
