［操五寶］
道教中的乩童分為「文乩」和「武乩」，兩者都是將身體借給神明，差別在於武乩會持法器，文乩不會。操五寶則是武乩的降駕行為。
五寶為神明的法器，分別為七星劍、鯊魚劍、釘棍、刺球、月斧。所謂的操五寶，就是乩童拿法器自殘自己的身體，以神的保護不懼疼痛來彰顯神威，並以血來鎮煞驅邪。通常乩童自殘的部位是頭部以及背部。
五寶又代表了神明五營兵將的五個方位，別為東、西、南、北、中營，操五寶又代表了指揮神明的軍營。
最常見操五寶的神明為三太子和或玄天上帝等武將類型的男性神明。
[The Five Sacred Instruments］
There are two types of shaman in Taoist practice: “Wen- Ji and Wu- Ji”. Both types lend their body to the gods as the vessel for the spirits to be presented in the physical world; the one main difference is Wu-Ji would use instruments once the body taken over by the gods but Wen- Ji just uses chanting.
Handling of the five sacred instruments is a Wu- Ji specialty once it’s been possessed by the gods.
The Five Sacred Instruments include a seven-star sword, a nail stick (brass rod and wolf tooth stick), a moon ax (moon eyebrow ax, double ax), a nail-studded ball and a Sawfish Sword.
The handling of the five sacred instruments is when the Wu- Ji shaman uses the instruments to self-mutilate him or herself to show that, by being possessed by the gods, the power of the gods would protect the shaman from injuries and pain. This is to signified the power of the gods, and to suppress evil spirits. Usually the shamans self-mutilation is done on either the back or the head.
The five sacred instruments also signifies the five military camps of the gods from five different directions: east, west, south, north, and center. Therefore the handling of five sacred instruments also means the command of the five military camps.
The gods whom are most commonly seen at the handling of the five sacred instruments are Nuochia and/ or Xuan Tian, both are male military general type gods.
