On the Changchun Festival, an imperial order tested śramaṇas in the palace on ten points of the meaning of sūtras, vinayas, and treatises. Emperor Qinzong decreed that the Daojun Sacred Birthday should still be held at Daoist abbeys, while the Qianlong Festival should still be held at Buddhist monasteries, all following the ancient regulations of the ancestral emperors.
