This is the first book in any language offering a comprehensive
study that places Daoxuan (596-667), one of the most important
scholarly monks, in the context of medieval Chinese Buddhist
history. In presenting a fresh image of medieval monastic life of
Chinese Buddhism, it focuses on several key issues in Daoxuan's
work, including the veneration of Buddha's relics, the re-creation
of the ordination platform and ordination ritual, and how the
Buddhist community reclassified and dealt with monastic property.
It is indispensable for all those who are interested in the
religions and history of medieval China and comparative
monasticism.
