History and legend are interwoven in this folk novel that both
entertains and instructs. Written by an unknown author, "Seven
Taoist Masters " is the story of six men and one woman who overcome
tremendous hardships on the journey to self-mastery. These
characters and their teacher, Wang Ch'ung-yang, are all historical
figures who lived in the Southern Sung (1127-1279) and Yuan
(1271-1368) dynasties. Wang is regarded as the greatest patriarch
of the Complete Reality school, a highly purified branch of Taoism
having a strong affinity with Zen Buddhism. The novel brings to
life the essentials of Taoist philosophy and practice, both through
the instructions offered by Wang--on topics such as the cultivation
of mind and body, meditation techniques, and overcoming the
obstacles to enlightenment--and through the experiences of the
characters.
