The Zhang Dalun 张大伦
Paul PengShare
Zhang Dalun was a native of Jiaxing (now part of Zhejiang Province) during the Ming Dynasty.
He styled himself "Zhongxun". From an early age, he entered Longhu Mountain (the sacred mountain of Zhengyi Daoism) and became a Daoist monk.

He was taught the "Wulei Method" (Five Thunders Method)—a major ritual practice in Daoism—and often used Daoist talismans and incantations to treat illnesses and save people.
He was diligent in cultivating moral integrity and practicing Daoism, and he spent eight years in seclusion for intensive spiritual cultivation, ultimately mastering profound Daoist arts.
Accounts of his life can be found in Jiaxing Fuzhi (Gazetteer of Jiaxing Prefecture).
