To render TaskTemplate using the tiddler data (fields) from the current
tiddler, see:
http://tiddlywiki.com/#Transclusion%20with%20Templates
Summary: the full notation for transclusion is {{target||template}}, where
"target" is the name of the tiddler containing the data (fields) and
"template" is the name of the tiddler containing the output formatting
(wikitext) with references to the data fields. If the template is omitted
(i.e., just {{target}}) then a simple transclusion is performed and both
the data and the output format come from the indicated target tiddler. If
the target is omitted, (i.e., just {{||template}}), then a "transclusion
with template" is performed, using data from the current tiddler and the
output format from the indicated template tiddler.
