Abstract:
The Shidetang version of Journey to the West was published during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and the book's interpretation by the Ming and Qing Dynasties was based on inner alchemy (Neidan) or Buddhism and Taoism. Among some Taoist schools in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Journey to the West was regarded as an inner alchemy classic for study and skill cultivation. The notions and teachings of Neidan have also been disseminated throughout society because of the wide circulation of Journey to the West. In the past, the study of Journey to the West focused less on how a certain school interpreted the book and more on using it to practice Neidan. Tianzhi Wu and Dongting Wang's unique “void outside the body” inner alchemy teachings were developed according to the interpretations of Sun Wukong, Sun Waigong, and the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick in Journey to the West. Therefore, an in-depth analysis of Wu and Wang's view of the book is critical to understanding their inner alchemy teachings as well as the development and legacy of the Western school's teachings. Such an analysis can also elucidate how Journey to the West influences inner alchemy practices inside and outside Taoism. In this article, we affirm that Tianzhi Wu's Neidan teachings were not inherited from Hanxu Li, who is not known to refer to Journey to the West. Although Wu and Wang's Journey to the West—related Neidan teaching was influenced by Chen Shibin and Liu Yiming, Wu and Wang also had their own unique ideas. Despite Wu and Wang's emphasis on the book, its legacy and the importance attached to it have gradually weakened. The lineage that Junque Wu spread to Taiwan after World War II no longer mentioned Journey to the West.
