Notes
Wikipedia's article on zuowang, consulted 2026-08-11. A perpetually community-edited reference page rather than a peer-reviewed publication; used here for Sima Chengzhen's Zuowanglun and its seven stage systematization within a Daoist school centered in the Tiantai range, for the Tang dynasty close of the classical systematization period, and for a modern scholarly comparison to Herbert Benson's Relaxation Response, standard reference facts distinct from the atlas's existing Taoist Body citation.
