No !
Relic (She Li Tse) has other names, other appearances, other functions in Daoist practice.
If you are not there, it is difficult to talk.
If you are there, it is no need to talk !!
"Dao is not given to people who are not ready (fei ren), methods are not given to the sixth ears (outsiders)"
(you can guess, if you read ancient Daoist text.....because they are written in "symbolics" -- for practitioners only, did not want to say it clearly to people who are not ready)
Relic in Buddhism is just:
"All the materials and methods (you wei fa) are just like dreams, illusions, bubbles....like mists and electricity.....this is the right attitude for looking at things."
(Jin Gong JIng -- The Diamond Jing)
Just keep an open eyes and respect both teachings.
Buddha and Lao Tse are having a "dance party" up there....
They are letting their children marrying to each other.
And we are still arguing who is more correct, more powerful, who is higher....
like blind people touching different parts of the elephant, and argue in the dark.
They have no time for this......
They want to see
"Weddings" not "Wars" among us.
