Daoist Master Dong Yang is 13th generation Zhongnan & 24th generation Huashan non-religious Daoism.

Master Dong Yang started learning at a very early age in Beijing, China. Master Dong Yangs teacher from Zhongnan lives in the mountains there. His name is Wang Ming Li and was originally from Shanxi. He travelled to Beijing and was staying in white cloud temple when Master Dong Yang started learning from him. Wang didn't teach or speak to other people. Wang didn't belong to any sect but was highly reveared - he was also quite old at the time and looked very young and healthy. There are other teachers who have asked not to be named.

From the very start, Master Dong Yang learnt genuine Daoist knowledge which is non-superstitious and non-religious, but true natural knowledge and natural practice to cultivate and grow the internal elixir (nei dan).

He branches out from Daoist lineages that stem from private Daoist hermits. Master Dong Yang promotes Dao as a practical, effective and functional way to deal with the world with ease without having to retreat from it. There are no rituals and rites, chants or prayers, there is simply the cultivation of life through the cultivation of the internal elixir and the constant respect of nature.

Daoist Master Dong Yang now bridges the gap between this ancient knowledge and the modern world in the tradition of Lao Zi and Lu Dong Bin (both famous for spreading Daoist knowledge to the public).

"To hold the key to your life means to master natural power and natural power is creative power, this is the internal elixir"
