Three Pure Ones

The Three Pure Ones (Chinese: 三清; pinyin: Sān Qīng; Wade-Giles: San-ch'ing) are three Taoist deities. They are:
  • the Jade Pure (玉清; pinyin: Y Qīng; Wade-Giles: Yu-ch'ing), also known as the "Heavenly Worthy of the Primordial Beginning" (元始天尊, Yuanshi tianzun).
  • the Upper Pure (上清; pinyin: Shng Qīng; Wade-Giles: Shang-ch'ing), also known as the "Heavenly Worthy of the Numinous Treasure" (灵宝天尊, Lingbao tianzun).
  • the Great Pure (太清; pinyin: Ti Qīng; Wade-Giles: T'ai-ch'ing), also known as the "Heavenly Worthy of the Way and its Virtue" (道德天尊, Daode tianzun) or the "Exalted Supreme Lord Lao" (太上老君, Taishang Laojun).
