Abstract: The doctrinal system of the Daojiao Yishu diverges from the traditional Daoist practice of achieving immortality through esoteric knowledge and ritual techniques.This divergence stems both from its metaphysical intellectual background and its theoretical attempt to reorganize Daoist doctrine.The divergence reveals the inherent tension between religious belief and doctrine—essentially the tension between faith-based and rational thinking,between the transcendence of religious faith and its goals,and the secular nature of religious entities.This tension manifests the mutual interplay between faith-based and rational thinking,as well as the dual nature of religion—both secular and transcendent.Moreover,from the perspective of lived religious practice,the gap between belief and doctrine does not impede the faithful from engaging in normal religious practices.This reveals the limitations of natural reason while demonstrating that faith is not merely a deficiency of natural reason. Rather,it functions as a fundamental mode of human thought and practice,playing an irreplaceable role in human life.
