This quiz tests Taoist School Selector Quanzhen- Perhaps the most divergent and influential school of Taoism, Quanzhen (Complete Reality) Taoism draws its beliefs from the teachings of Immortal Lu Dongbin, the 11th Century Taoist who taught the virtue of a simplified practice, and the value of Buddhist and Confucian teachings as a complement to Taoist tradition. His followers, notably Wang Chongyang, founded the first lineages which branched out to dozens of sects. The most dominant sect is the Dragon Gate (Lungmen) sect, headquartered at the White Cloud Temple in Beijing. Quanzhen Taoists live in monastic communities, whose initiates undergo years of strict training in internal alchemy, ritual, martial arts, medicine, and other arts. Initiates follow a life of celibacy, poverty, abstention from alcohol and meat, and a strictly regimented daily routine. Many major monasteries are near population centers, where monks hold great influence on the public at large, across all social classes. Religion Knowledge Quizzes, Trivia, IQ Tests
