poetguy Posted August 7, 2010 Hi Tao Bums! I'm here looking for information for a piece of fiction. I'm hoping to find information on talismans, shoujue (mudras), incantations, and so on, the spell-making of magical Daoism. I've been working with the chapters in Eva Wong's Introduction, and with a book of Jerry Alan Johnson, and with anthropology texts, and with all the material I've been able to locate on the web. I'm looking for more knowledge, more understanding, and more guidance. Â Have there been threads here where Daoism's magical traditions were covered in depth? Are there books you'd recommend? Where would you suggest I look for more knowledge on the malevolent entities of Daoism, the yaoguei or the huli jing, and so on? Do you know where I could find thorough, solid material about Daoist exorcisms and other spells? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aetherous Posted August 7, 2010 Hello poetguy, Â I think you will have to train with these kinds of practitioners in person, for a long time, to truly get knowledge of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
