520 |a In Daozang texts, sectarian hagiographies, and late imperial inner alchemy (neidan 内丹) writings, the life and teachings of Bodhidharma were reconceived in interesting ways, often by drawing upon and magnifying the Chan 禪 Buddhist motifs. From Daozang texts it is apparent that certain parties regarded him as a master of the immortality technique of Embryonic Breathing, or as having transmitted teachings on how to anticipate death and safely navigate through the dying process. His reputation as a master of immortality methods (i.e., inner alchemy) and death-anticipation/navigation methods is perpetuated and further magnified in sectarian hagiographies and the inner alchemical writings of Wu Shouyang 伍守陽 and Liu Huayang 柳華陽. The sectarian hagiographies, while retaining key Chan hagiographical motifs, recast Bodhidharma as a messenger from the realm of the Eternal True Parents, thus integrating him into the scheme of sectarian mythology and soteriology.
