Quanzhen School
Major school of Taoism
Quanzhen School
The Quanzhen School (全真: Quánzhēn, "All-True", Complete Perfection, Integrating Perfection or Complete Reality) is currently one of the two dominant denominations of Daoism in China (the other being Zhengyi Dao or "Orthodox Unity"). It originated in the Shandong peninsula in 1170. One of its founders was master Wang Chongyang (1113–1170). When the Mongols invaded China, the Quanzhen Taoists exerted great effort in keeping the peace, thus saving most Han Chinese lives. Qiu Chuji, a major disciple of Wang, founded the Dragon Gate lineage (龍門派 Lóngmén pài), along with the White Cloud Monastery in Beijing. This tradition remains one of the largest Taoist sects in China today.
