Abstract: Taoist doctrinal studies is a discipline that interprets its religious system from a faith-based perspective. It encompasses the interpretation of terminologies and systematic doctrinal theories. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Taoist doctrinal studies was in its embryonic stage with Laozi Xiang er Zhu (Laozi Xiang’er Commentary). In the initial period, influenced by the concept of "the integration of the Three Teachings," it adopted Buddhist doctrines, forming a cultural character of integrated terminologies in Taoist doctrines. During the Southern Dynasties, Taoism began to construct a doctrine-oriented terminological system and carried out doctrinal activities through forms such as annotations and exegeses. In the Northern Dynasties, Wushang Miyao (The Supreme Secret Essentials) formed the framework of the Taoist doctrinal system. In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Taoist doctrinal studies matured due to systematic and comprehensive discussions of Taoist doctrinal literature and the Chongxuan (Twofold Mystery) ideological trend represented by Cheng Xuanying and Li Rong, showing a speculative power comparable to that of Buddhism. After the late Tang Dynasty, Taoist doctrinal studies suffered a long-term interruption due to factors such as wars and the burning of scriptures. In modern times, Taoist doctrinal studies has been revived with the promotion of the Taoist religious community and the academic circle, forming an embryonic interaction between the "Taoist religious community + academic circle." However, problems such as the long-term absence of the Taoist religious community as the main body, the disconnection between faith experiences and theoretical interpretations, and the misinterpretation of the absorption of Buddhist terms as "plagiarism" still exist. In the future, the Taoist religious community needs to start from a faith-based perspective, construct an interactive mechanism for Taoist doctrinal studies, and respond to existing controversies by combining faith experiences and religious pluralism.
