抱朴子 by Hong Ge
"抱朴子" by Hong Ge is a literary work written between 317-318 CE during China's turbulent Jin dynasty. Divided into esoteric Inner Chapters and public Outer Chapters, this text bridges Taoist and Confucian thought. The Inner Chapters explore techniques for achieving immortality, Chinese alchemy, elixirs, and demonology, while the Outer Chapters examine literature, politics, and society. The title means "The Master Who Embraces Simplicity," reflecting Ge Hong's pen name and philosophy of preserving
authenticity amid a changing world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
