The Zhang Shouzheng 张守正

The Zhang Shouzheng 张守正

Paul Peng
Zhang Shouzheng was a person in the early Yuan Dynasty. Her ancestral home was Beiguo Village, Heyang County, Mengzhou.

After encountering military chaos and getting separated from her husband, she went to Baozhen Temple in Fenxi County, Pingyang Prefecture and became a female Taoist priest.

The "Record of Shenqing Nunnery" records that Shouzheng had few desires and was indifferent to emotions, leading a simple life and not failing to practice virtue. She cultivated a sincere heart and never neglected her practice.

In the eighth year of Yuan Xianzong (1258), she wandered to Sancheng County. At the invitation of Dong Xing, Li Xin and other leaders of the Taoist association in Changjian Village, she, together with her female disciple Zhu Dehui and others, built Shenqing Nunnery and spread Taoism there.
