Abstract

[In this period, the relationship among the three teachings was mainly characterized by the separation of Confucian classical studies, though it still retained its position as China’s dominant ideology and culture; the rise of Neo-Daoism (i.e., Xuanxue, or Neo-Daoist Metaphysics), the elevation of Daoist religion as one of the mainstream religions in China; and the sudden emergence of Buddhism as an important spiritual pillar of the Chinese people. The three teachings exhibited a trend of tripartite interactions, characterized by mutual absorption, clarification of differences, and intellectual debate, while also striving to seek commonalities amid their differences, in an attempt to forge a common foundation on which they can coexist and complement each other. These interactions provided feasible historical experiences for the unified implementation of cultural policies in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which sought to revere the three teachings jointly.]
