Sources & credits

We distinguish source quotations, our own explanations, oral accounts, personal experiences, and details that still need to be checked.

This website draws on planning documents, books, transcribed conversations, photographs, and practice footage supplied by the Daokong Gong team. English content is translated or adapted from the Chinese material, with explanations where a cultural term needs context.

Wang Xiangzhai’s own writings are distinguished from students’ notes, later essays, and editorial comments. English translations and interpretations are identified as such; they are not his original words.

Please obtain permission before using the site’s writing, portraits, or videos commercially.
