全真道龙门派始祖丘处机与道教的中兴

道教因有了丘处机,才有了道教全真道龙门派,道教随之得以中兴,开创了元朝时期道教的辉煌。金大定二十六年(1186年)是全真教发展史上的里程碑。是年,全真道迅猛传布,民众纷纷归向全真。丘处机掌教时期,正值宋金对峙,蒙古帝国南侵之际,政治格局巨变,局势错综复杂,作为全真道教主的丘处机便成为南宋、金朝、以及蒙古帝国争夺的重要人物。

Qiu Chuji,Ancestor of Quanzhen Taoism Dragon Faction and the Revival of Taoism

The revival of Taoism came with the existence of the Quanzhen Taoism Dragon Faction and its ancestor Qiu Chuji, thus creating glamour of Taoism during the Yuan Dynasty. The Year 1186 （26th year of Jindading） was a landmark in the history of Quanzhen Taoism. It spread widely the next year and large amount of people converged to the religion. When Quanzhen was in charge of the religion, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty were against each other. When Mongolian imperialists were invading the south, the political situation changed greatly and became very complicated. As the master of Quanzhen Taoism, Qiu Chuji then became an important man who was competed for by the South Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, and the Mongolian Empire.
