Wu-tou-mi Tao (‘five pecks of rice Taoism’). School of religious
Taoism (
tao-chiao), founded by
Chang Tao-ling (2nd cent. CE) and his grandson,
Chang Lu. Those wishing to join paid five pecks of rice to the functionaries (
tao-shih), hence the name. The leaders were called tien-shih, celestial masters, and this is another name for the school, the Celestial Master, or Heavenly Master, School. It has continued to the present day, more respectfully known as
cheng-yi,
‘the Orthodox way’.
