唐玄宗朝史崇玄等奉敕编,原《一切道经音义》百余卷配《妙门由起》六篇,今仅存序与《妙门由起》一卷,道藏太平部。六篇为:明道化、明天尊、明法界、明居处、明开度、明经法。据京中藏经二千余卷作音训并述道经源流,是官方第一次系统「道经音义」与教理导论。强调道、天尊、法界、开度、经法之生成与结构,引用道经七十余种,对研究开元道藏目录与术语规范价值极高;音义正文虽佚,由起六门仍是唐代官方道教学的纲维。
⚡ Ứng dụng: 把握唐代官方对「道—天尊—法界—经法」的定义框架;研究开元道藏与音义学时作序论导读。

The work proves that correct entry into the Dao depends on sound, sense, and origin of terms: misheard phonology and misread meaning open false gates. Lexicography is therefore soteriological—clarity of names is a necessary condition for effective practice.
1) Standardize pronunciation of key BaZi/Daoist terms before applying them. 2) Distinguish homophones that map to different five-phase logics. 3) When a formula fails, audit semantic drift of its keywords. 4) Teach students definitions before techniques. 5) Keep a living glossary tied to operational outcomes.
Unlike pure cosmology (太玄经) or pure precepts (戒经), this text’s thesis is that language is the control surface of practice. It differs from later popular manuals by treating philology as spiritual technology.
