There is a Taoist temple on the bank of Jinting Lake in Tiantai Mountain, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, called Tongbai Palace, which is the southern ancestral hall of Taoism. Next to Tongbai Palace, there is a Taoist college named Zhejiang Taoist College, which is surrounded by mountains and waters, with pleasant scenery and quiet environment. It is the best place for study and practice.
Different from the traditional undergraduate colleges in China, Taoist colleges reveal mystery from enrollment conditions to study subjects! On the enrollment brochure of Zhejiang Taoist College, there is such a poem at the beginning:
Dont Ask For Help lost his way and learned to return, but a talented man can't be a husband. A hundred years old, a stone opens the door, and life experience floats.
I only covet wealth and glory, but I don't feel like describing darkness and fatigue. Excuse me, there is a mountain of gold, and impermanence can be bought.
If you are an ordinary college entrance examination student, that is, with a high school education or above, you can be admitted as long as you meet the requirements, but if you are a Taoist, you need to have a Taoist certificate or be recommended by Taoist temples and Taoist associations.
It is not easy to enter the school successfully, because you have to pass the interview, written test and physical examination arranged by the college before entering the school. Not only that, other universities are graduation theses, and Taoist colleges have to apply for theses.
If you successfully passed the written test, interview and physical examination of Taoist College, congratulations, you are still one step away from the real admission! Because you still need a month's trial reading training, those who pass can become formal students of Zhejiang Daoyuan.
