The Shangqing Primordial Transformation Precious Truth Upper Scripture
The Shangqing Primordial Transformation Precious Truth Upper Scripture (Shangqing Yuanshi Bianhua Baozhen Shangjing) is an early classic of the Shangqing School, presumably compiled during the Northern and Southern Dynasties (420–589 CE).
This scripture comprises two parts: The Turtle Mountain Cinnabar Sovereign Flying Mystery Purple Script and The Shangqing Primordial Birth Transformation Mysterious Record, focusing on the method of "contemplating deities" (sishen). Its content and phrasing are largely identical to the first and third scrolls of The Shangqing Primordial Transformation Precious Truth Upper Scripture: The Nine Spirits’ Supreme Marvel Turtle Mountain Mysterious Record.
It is presumably a different version of the same text. See the entry for the aforementioned text for further reference.
