Reimagining Chan Buddhism
This book is the first socio-intellectual history of the Dharma Drum Lineage of Chan (Zen), a new lineage of Buddhism founded by the late Chinese Buddhist cleric, Sheng Yen (1931–2009)—arguably one of the most influential Chan masters in contemporary times. The book challenges the received academic and popular image of Chan Buddhism as a meditation school that bypasses scriptural learning. Using Sheng Yen’s doctrinal classification (Chn. panjiao)…
Play in Asian preschools? Mapping a landscape of hindering factors
This article investigates the variety of factors that hinder the implementation of play (as defined by western scholars) in Asian preschools. Drawing on the theoretical frameworks of policy borrowing, enactment and glocalisation, we analyse three jurisdictions that illustrate distinctive problematics: India, Mainland China and Hong Kong. The methodology involves a bibliographic review. Each jurisdiction is presented as a narrative portrait, inclu…
Blood writing as extraordinary artifact and agent for socioreligious change
This paper explores blood written texts, particularly Buddhist scriptures, as unique artifacts of sanctity. It also examines the extraordinary uses of blood in premodern times and how people have negotiated socioreligious relationships in their production of blood writings, which were seen as a product of meticulous, controlled ritual practice, an act of asceticism par excellence. We typically think of written text as a means to an end, an expres…
Chinese Esoteric Buddhism
Chinese Esoteric Buddhism is generally held to have been established as a distinct Buddhist school in eighth-century China. Geoffrey C. Goble provides an innovative account of the tradition's emergence that sheds new light on the structures and traditions that shaped its institutionalization, with a focus on Amoghavajra (704–774)
Reflections on Self-Immolation in Chinese Buddhist and Daoist Traditions
This chapter explores self-immolation in the premodern Chinese Buddhist and Daoist historical milieus. It historicizes this ritual within the spectrum of wider Indian Buddhist practices, and explores the Chinese (and by extension, East Asian) imagination of religious sanctity and mastery over death. It argues that self-immolation in China was understood as a way of transforming death’s negative implications into productive power. The Chinese Budd…

Living Karma
Sanctity and Self-Inflicted Violence in Chinese Religions, 1500-1700
Self-inflicted violence in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was a constituent and sanctioned aspect of the Chinese cultural life. As a category, self-inflicted violence allows us to see scholarly biases that tend to marginalize certain phenomena in Chinese culture while highlighting others. This book brings to light other, larger and more systemic preconceived ideas that attend analytic categories of religion, culture, and ritual. It exami…
