At the beginning of each age, Yuanshi Tianzun transports the Lingpao ching (or "Yuanshi Ching"), the Scriptures of the Magic Jewel, to his students (who are lesser deities), who in turn instruct mankind in the teachings of the Tao.
Pada permulaan setiap masa, Yuanshi Tianzun mengirimkan Lingpao ching (atau "Yuanshi Ching"), Kitab Permata Ajaib, kepada para muridnya (yaitu para Dewata yang lebih rendah), yang selanjutnya akan menginstruksi umat manusia ajaran Tao.
