Talk:Chen Tuan

message: I'm adding some of his other names from the Chinese version of this page. 
I'd also like to note that some of this article is extremely muddled.  I don't know enough about Chen Tuan and his practices to make much sense of it.  I'm referring especially to this part:
...with a method of chi (energy) cultivation known today as Taiji ruler, sleeping meditation, a 24 Daoyin Qigong Method (er shi shi ssu shih tao yin fa) seated and standing exercises designed to prevent diseases that occur during seasonal change.
 If you know more than I, please edit!  Otherwise, I may consult the Chinese version to see if I can untangle the mess.

"An interesting lineage: Hidden Immortal; by teacher Wu Zhong-xian
Hidden Immortal Lineage
" It is said that Xi Wang Mu 西王母 (Queen Mother of the West) of Kun Lun 崐崘 Mountain was the first person to start teaching Qi cultivation techniques to help others become immortals. In the Daoist tradition, she is is addressed as Jin Guang Xuan Mu 金光玄母 (Golden Light Mystical Mother). 
Historically, the next important teacher of shamanism and Daoism is Xuan Yuan 軒轅, otherwise known as the Yellow Emperor. He passed down secret cultivation techniques of immortality after he became immortal. More than 2,000 years after the Yellow Emperor, another very important teacher appeared in the Zhou dynasty (1027–256 BCE). This was Laozi 老子, whom we also call Tai Shang Lao Jun 太上老君 (the Most High Lord Lao). Although many people benefited from Laozi’s teachings, two stand out: 
Shao Yang Zu Shi 少陽祖師 (whose original name was Wang XuanFu 王玄甫) and Wen Shi Zhen Ren 文始真人 (whose original name was Yin Xi 尹喜). 
These masters started two immortal cultivation teaching lineages: 
ShaoYang Lineage and WenShi Lineage:

The WenShi Lineage is also called Yin Xian Pai  隱仙派, the Hidden Immortal Lineage, or You Long Pai 猶龍派, the 'Just Like a Dragon Lineage' as the 
masters in this lineage were hermits, just like hidden dragons. 
WenShi ZhenRen taught Yijing prediction techniques and internal alchemy cultivation secrets to Ma Yi Dao Zhe Li He 麻衣道者李和. 
Ma Yi Dao Zhe passed his practice on to Xi-Yi Xian-Sheng 
>>Chen Tuan 希夷先生陳摶. 
Hai Chan Zi Liu Cao, from the Complete Reality Lineage, passed his internal alchemy practices  on to Chen Tuan 陳摶 "
