Only a priest who has received the Registers (Lu) is capable of drawing efficacious talismans

December 1,2025

Within the tradition of the Zhengyi Celestial Master Taoism, not
everyone is authorized to inscribe talismans. The priest must undergo
the strict "Receiving of the Registers" (Shou Lu) ceremony, be
granted the corresponding ritual rank, and have their name officially
recorded in the Divine Registry of the Celestial Court. Only then
does the talisman they inscribe possess "official" efficacy,
empowering them to command spirit soldiers and celestial officers,
making the talisman potent.

The Register (Lu) is typically a document recording the names of
divine generals and spirit soldiers. It is the priest's "seal of
military authority" for mobilizing these divine forces. The Talisman
(Fu), in turn, is the "directive of action" issued for a specific
purpose. Only with the Register can one enact the Talisman, and the
efficacy of the Talisman is determined by the Register's rank. The
Celestial Master's lineage has strict levels for the Registers, suchas the initial Taishang Three-Five Dusks and Achievements Register,
the intermediate Zhengyi Mengwei Register, the advanced Shangqing
Three Grottoes Five Thunders Register, and the supreme Shangqing
Great Grotto Register. The advancement of each rank signifies a
higher cultivation level and the power to mobilize more potent
deities, ensuring the drawn talismans are extraordinarily powerful
and efficacious.
All Taoist Masters at LonghuTao are orthodox High Priests who have
formally received the Registers. Our sacred talismans are personally
inscribed by Grand Master in Purple Robes, Wang Luohai, who holds
high-level Registers, ensuring their efficacy is truly extraordinary.

唯有授箓道士方能畫符靈驗

2025年12月1日

在正一天師道傳統中,並非人人可書符。道士必須經過嚴格的“授箓”儀式,
被授予相應的法職,其名諱才會被錄入天曹神籍。此後他所書的符,才具有
“官方”效力,方能調遣神兵將吏而靈驗。
“箓”通常是記錄天將神兵名諱的牒文,是道士調動神兵的“兵權印信”;
“符”則是針對具體事項發佈的“行動指令”。有箓方能行符,符的效力受箓
的階位影響。天師道的法箓有嚴格的等級,如初級的《太上三五都功經箓》,
中級的《正一盟威經箓》,高級的《上清三洞五雷經箓》以及《上清大洞經
箓》等。每晉升一階,意味著修為更高,可調遣的神明更厲害,所書的符也更
為強大靈驗。
LongHuTao的道長皆是正統授箓的高功道士,且有得授高級法箓的紫袍大法師汪
羅海道長親筆所書靈符,效力非同尋常。
