Liuren employs a strictly graduated initiation structure known as "Guojiao" (過教 - Passing the Teaching). This ensures disciples are safely acclimated to Fa Power (法力) while testing their character and dedication. However, the curriculum structure differs between the two major transmission streams.
🏛️ The Fuying Hall (伏英舘) Standard (5 Degrees)
Following the "Iron Plate" method (鐵板正法), the Fuying Hall tradition organizes its curriculum into five progressive degrees. These correspond to the 82-section master syllabus.
| Level | Chinese Name | Primary Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Zhongjiao (中教) | Protection & Foundation: Core talismans and defensive rituals. |
| 2 | Dajiao (大教) | Cultivation & Internal Strength: Energy work and meditation. |
| 3 | Sanshanjiao (三山教) | Ritual & Public Service: Complex ceremonies and community Fa. |
| 4 | Wuleijiao (五雷教) | Mastery & Higher Seals: Thunder arts and supreme command. |
| 5 | Yikelei (医科类) | Ritual Healing Mastery: Advanced restoration and Zhu You tradition. |
🌴 The Gaozhou Transmission System (3 Levels)
Originating from the Xie Guangming lineage, this system uses a simpler gradation from small to big, but includes a highly secretive "inner altar" degree.
| Level | Chinese Name | Primary Focus |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Small Teaching (小教) | Foundational entry level and initial initiation. |
| 2 | Middle Teaching (中教) | Intermediate rituals and talismanic practice. |
| 3 | Big Teaching (大教) | Advanced mastery and ritual leadership. |
| Secret | Flying Sand Teaching (飞砂教) | Esoteric "Inner Altar" (内坛) method for aggressive/defensive magic. |
