Huahujing
The ''Huahujing '' (formerly written ''Hua Hu Ching'') () is a Taoist book. The work is traditionally attributed to Laozi (formerly written Lao Tzu).
Some scholars believe it is a forgery because there are no historical references to the text until the early 4th century CE. It has been suggested that the Taoist Wang Fu (王浮) may have originally compiled the ''Huahujing'' circa 300 CE.〔Louis Komjathy (2004:48)〕
Two unrelated versions are claimed to exist, one from oral tradition and the other a partial manuscript discovered in a cave in China.
==Destruction of copies==
Emperors of China occasionally organized debates between Buddhists and Taoists, and granted political favor to the winners. The Taoists are sometimes claimed to have developed the ''Huahujing'' to support one of their favorite arguments against the Buddhists, which was that after leaving China to the West, Laozi had travelled as far as India, where he had converted—or even become—the Buddha. Buddhism was therefore created as a somewhat distorted offshoot of Taoism.〔Homes Welch (1957:152)〕 In 705, Emperor Zhongzong of Tang prohibited distribution of the text.〔Weinstein (1987:47–48)〕 An emperor ordered all copies to be destroyed in the 13th century after Taoists lost a debate with Buddhists.〔(辯偽錄 )〕
