Tài shàng shuō xuán tiān dà shèng Zhēn wǔ běn zhuàn shén zhòu miào jīng (alternate recension) 太上說玄天大聖真武本傳神咒妙經
Sacred Scripture Spoken by the Most High on the Origin and Spells of the Great Sage Zhēn wǔ of the Mysterious Heaven — alternate 1-juàn recension
A shorter alternate recension of the Zhēn wǔ scripture, preserved in the Daozang Pǔ lù 譜錄 section (DZ 775) in 1 juàn. The header notes “三經同卷” — three scriptures in a single juàn — so this may combine multiple related short Zhēn-wǔ-cycle texts in one fascicle.
About the work
The scripture cluster preserved here (3 short scriptures in one juàn) reflects the Zhēn wǔ 真武 cult’s proliferation of associated scriptures in the SòngYuán period — brief devotional-ritual texts that circulated alongside the main [[KR5c0150|DZ 754 Běn zhuàn shén zhòu miào jīng]]. See KR5c0150 for broader treatment of the Zhēn wǔ cult.
Dating. SòngYuán period. Dynasty: 宋-元.
