==== ''Daozang tiyao'' (Ren Jiyu and Zhong Zhaopeng) ====

是經說了心之法，謂“心為神主，動靜從心”。心為禍本，又為道宗。故“修道先觀其心”。其法為“不動不靜，無想無存，無心無動，有動從心。了心真性，了真性心，心無所住，住無所心。了無執住，無執轉真，空無空處，空處了真”，其旨多取於釋氏心性之說，疑出唐宋間。

==== ''Zhengtong Daozang tiyao'' (Hsiao Teng-fu) ====

經文極短，連前後經題，僅一百九十五字。內容主要在論述「心為禍本，心為道宗」，修道之法在觀心、了心。撰作年代約在唐代。

此經全文分三段，後兩段以「老君曰」起始。首段為此經之綱要，論述觀心修道之法，文云：「若夫修道，先觀其心。心為神主，動靜從心。心動無靜，不動了真。心為禍本，心為道宗。不動不靜，無想無存。無心無動，有動從心。了心真性，了性真心。心無所住，住無所心。了無執住，無執轉真。空無空處，空處了真。」其修道之法，是由內觀其心，使動靜由心，了心真性，而無所執著。

此經亦是受《太上老君說常清靜妙經》（《清靜經》）影響所撰成的道經，以《清靜經》流行的情形看，此經的撰作年代約在唐代。
