In other words, Taishang Laojun is one of the highest gods in Taoism and is recognized as the founder of Taoism. Also known as moral god, Taishang Daozu, Daozu, Taiqing moral god, mixed god, gave birth to god, and robbed god at the end of the emperor. Therefore, it is best to put the statue of the old gentleman at home in the middle of the room, facing south and north.
However, in modern architectural design, it is not easy to find a statue facing south in order to make effective use of space and lighting. In the absence of a suitable location, facing east and facing west, facing west and facing east is ok, but don't sit north and south.
It is best to choose a clean, bright and ventilated room as far as possible. Don't go near the toilet or toilet. Immortals can't flush toilets, which is disrespectful to immortals; For people living in rural areas, it is a good choice to locate the shrine in the central hall.
There are many rooms if there are conditions at home. It is also a good choice to set the shrine in a bright and quiet room. Such a room is called a quiet room.
If there is no spare room, there happens to be a study at home. Then it will be of great help to those who like calligraphy and literature, are good at learning and should take a career.
Nowadays, the housing in the city is very tight and the space is narrow, so it is often impossible to have a special room to set up a shrine. Then consider setting up a shrine in the bedroom at this time. In the bedroom, try not to let the idol face the bed. It is more respectful to cover your idol with yellow cloth during lunch break and sleep at night.
From a professional point of view, the statue of Laojun can't be judged from the direction alone. It depends on where you come from (usually the bed of the host). It is best to set six relatives by bloodline, idol is enshrined in parents' position, and wife's financial position is also good. Other officials, ghosts, descendants and brothers are absolutely unacceptable.
There can be no pears, grapes or meat in the tribute fruit. If the variety is odd, water must be provided, not wine.

Tang Xuanzong also wrote a poem "Ode to Emperor Xuanyuan" to celebrate the old man's birthday:
He is virtuous and has been born for many years.
White hair hangs down and purple floats in the sky.
Silent and light, forever robbed.
The ancestor of all religions is called Xuanyuan.
Teach your father in the East and Jin Xian in the West.
Hundreds of kings take the law, and saints preach it.
Hangu closes the right, leaving five thousand behind.
Tao is extraordinary and mysterious.
