Dinglu is regarded as one of the main tools in Taoist practice, and it is a round instrument with the function of alchemy. Many Taoist priests will set up cauldrons in their own rooms or secret rooms to refine medicine or practice.
In the legend of Taoism, Ding Lu also has mysterious power, which is a symbol of Taoist cultivation to a profound realm. Therefore, the Taoist priest called Ding Lu to show his respect and worship for his mysterious power.
Taoist practice with Ding Lu is very complicated, and it needs to master many skills and secret recipes. Taoist priests usually put all kinds of medicinal materials and other materials into a cauldron first, and then use their own skills to adjust the temperature in the cauldron until the medicine is refined.
In the process of refining Ding Lu, Taoist priests will also guide their energy through special mysterious spells in order to practice.
Ding Lu is very important in Taoist culture and is regarded as a symbol of Taoist culture. There is also a famous saying in ancient China: "The Tao is as close as the sky, and the tripod is like the ground", which means that the tripod is the foundation of the door, although the Tao is wide and boundless.
Therefore, Ding Lu is not only a tool in Taoist cultivation, but also represents the spirit of Taoist culture. In some Taoist sacrificial ceremonies, Dinglu is often used as a tool to burn incense and pray for blessings.
