The Yin Faren 殷法仁

The Yin Faren 殷法仁

Paul Peng
Yin Faren was a native of Yangxia in Chenjun Commandery during the Southern Dynasties (now part of Henan Province), with the courtesy name Zidao.
He became a Taoist practitioner in his youth and observed a long-term vegetarian diet.

Chen Wenhe, a wealthy magnate in the capital, built Yixian Guan (Yixian Taoist Temple) and invited Yin Faren to serve as its abbot.
