The Chongxuan school, inspired by the <a href="/wiki/Madhyamaka" title="Madhyamaka">Madhyamaka</a> thought of the <a href="/wiki/East_Asian_M%C4%81dhyamaka" title="East Asian Mādhyamaka">Sanlun School</a><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the Buddhist philosopher and monk <a href="/wiki/Jizang" title="Jizang">Jizang</a>, considered the phrase to mean that there are two stages to attaining the Dao: first, to get rid of the mental illusion of being, and then that of nonbeing. A similar phrase in Daodejing chapter 48, "diminish and again diminish",<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> is interpreted as meaning the erasure of desire in two stages: first, to eradicate desire, and then to eradicate the ultimate desire of wanting to have no desires. In practice, Jizang's "forgetfulness in two steps" (<i>jiānwàng</i> 兼忘) will be accomplished; this inspired the <a href="/wiki/Shangqing_School" title="Shangqing School">Shangqing</a> patriarch Sima Chengzhen's seven-step instructions of the <a href="/wiki/Zuowanglun" title="Zuowanglun">Zuowanglun</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Similarity to <a href="/wiki/Mahayana" title="Mahayana">Mahāyāna Buddhism</a> and the soteriology of the <a href="/wiki/Lingbao_School" title="Lingbao School">Lingbao School</a> is also found in some Chongxuan authors' idea that after the sage completes their spiritual path for their own benefit, they must benefit others. </p><p>On the other hand, Chongxuan thinkers also relied on the <a href="/wiki/Zhuangzi_(book)" title="Zhuangzi (book)">Zhuangzi</a>, many of whose passages center around the overcoming of conceptual oppositions. <a href="/wiki/Cheng_Xuanying" title="Cheng Xuanying">Cheng Xuanying</a>'s commentary to the Zhuangzi is of great importance here.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Active at a time when the <a href="/wiki/Tang_dynasty" title="Tang dynasty">Tang</a> state had great influence over and gave patronage to Daoist teachings, Chongxuan thinkers generally admitted the existence of social and spiritual inequality between humans, which they explain as divergence on the part of the Dao or Taiyi universal force <a href="/wiki/Yu%C3%A1n_q%C3%AC" class="mw-redirect" title="Yuán qì">received at birth</a>, and by the interplay of <a href="/wiki/Qi" title="Qi">qi</a>, both of which depended on circumstances.
