What is the Secret Book of the Three Sovereigns 三皇內文遺秘? Is it a recovered fragment from the lost legendary grimoire, the Book of the Three Sovereigns 三皇文?

The Sān Huáng Wén 三皇文 (Book of the Three Sovereigns) refers to a collection of texts currently in the Taoist Canons. Whether they are fragments of the legendary grimoire by that same name, we can’t be sure.

The version of the texts in the canonized Book of the Three Sovereigns date back to the Tang (618 – 907 AD) and Song (960 – 1279 AD) dynasties, with passages integrated from Three Sovereigns texts dating to the Three Kingdoms Era (220 – 280 AD), Jin (266 – 420 AD), and Wei (386 – 534 AD).

The latter half of this video will be a walk-through of the Secret Book’s tutorial on the Seal of the Nine Immortal Realms 九老仙部印圖, a Fu talisman and spirit map for channeling Taiyi 太一, the Supreme Primordial God of Heaven, and unlocking untold powers from within.

    25:30 No, it stated exactly (24:30) what these three dishes should be: 煎饼、柏汤、盐豉。煎 meant fry in shallow oil, 饼 at the time meant many forms of food stuff made mainly by wheat flour (for example what we call noodles were called 汤饼). I would guess a shallow fried flatbread is close to what it meant. 柏 is cypress, 汤 at the time meant hot water (as in Japanese now), but 柏汤 is more a kind of tea. To make 柏汤 you need to collect tender cypress leaves and air dry them in a specific way (you can find instructions online), then brew with hot water. 盐豉 is salted soy sauce/soybean paste/fermented soybeans.

    No clue what I've watched that led the algorithm and me to you. But man, this is a much more intriguing topic than I thought it would be. Thank you for bringing this type of information to YouTube!
  • @PrettyRad
    I just looked at your website and its the most well put together, useful, sensible, no bs, and concise collection I've ever seen. Everyone else is fired. You're my mentor now. Thank you. 👏
  • Look how noticeably the syntax of multi-aetheric divine societies carries from ancient Chinese to Enochian to Hebrew magics❤ All glory be of that living, loving, light, the love of every life❤❤❤
  • @jamesreid8638

    I'm seriously digging this girl. Not in THAT way, but in the way of meaning "she is like a seasoned western occultist... but not". I'm not accustomed to seeing information of this quality relating to any old Chinese traditions. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!😊
  • @willbender4295
    Its allegorical just like the Bible, emerald tablets, kyballion etc. All secretly teaching how to become enlightened, open the 3rd eye, raise the kundalini etc. Good stuff!!
  • This by far was the coolest and most informative video I've seen in awhile. Thank you!!!
  • @nicolemccall4568
    I have your book "The Tao of Craft" i didnt know you had a channel!!!
  • @bamioayam
    I don't know why I only just now started listening to your videos but I think I just found an antidepressant for my brain more potent than prescription drugs: an intellectual itch I've been having for YEARS, finally scratched. Thank you for your incredible work!
  • @alchemygal3285
    Wow, very thorough. Thanks for all your hard work and sharing this knowledge. ❤
  • @hagbardc623
    Your videos show such great understanding and hard work to put them together. Bow and salute.
  • @Bjorn_Algiz
    Amazing analysis 😊 love your consistency and research! ❤
  • I recently found your channel and have been loving your videos! I have always had an interest in Western ceremonial magick, as well as Eastern philosophy, but had a bit of 'never the twain shall meet' perspective, so your content instantly and deeply resonated with me. You have attracted a very knowledgeable audience too, which is refreshing in the barren intellectual wastelands we so often find ouselves in modernity. I want to pick up your book soon!
  • Mz Wen, thank you for sharing your kindness, hard work, and radiant brilliance with us ❤ I feel such gratitude to, and for you! May you continue to bless us as long as it continues to bring you joy ^~^
  • @danom3572
    So happy to find your channel. I took Mandarin in college but with no one to speak it with lost so much, I also read the the Romance of the 3 Kingdoms and have a great regard for Taoism and the I ching. Looking forward to more of your videos.
  • @scarter910
    This was fascinating. I am happy to find this channel, this video, and you. Great Job! 😊
