《北极子 - Peiji Zi 》 | English translation: AI and Chinese Text Project users [?] | Library Resources |
| 1 | 北极子: | 北极子者,姓阴名恒。其经曰:“治身之道,爱神为宝,养性之术,死入生出,常能行之,与天相毕。因生求生真生矣,以铁治铁之谓真,以人治人谓神。”后服神丹而仙焉。 |
| Peiji Zi was surnamed Yin and named Heng. His classic says: "The way to cultivate oneself is to cherish the spirit as a treasure; the method of nurturing one's nature involves death entering and life emerging. If one constantly practices this, they will harmonize with Heaven." "Because life seeks life, that is true life. To treat iron as iron is called truth; to treat people as people is called the divine." He later consumed spirit pills and became an immortal. |
