What Happened After Manjusri Migrated to China? - The Sinification of the Manjusri Faith and the Globalization of the Wutai Cult (Hardcover)

The chapters in this book explore the transcultural, multi-ethnic, and cross-regional contexts and connections between the Buddhavatamsaka-sutra, Mount Wutai and the veneration of Manjusri that contributed to the establishment and successive transformations of the cult centered on Mount Wutai - and reduplications elsewhere. The contributions reflect on the literature, architecture, iconography, medicine, society, philosophy and several other aspects of the Wutai cult and its significant influence across several Asian cultures, such as Chinese, Japanese, Tibetan, Mongolian and Korean. This book is a significant new contribution to the study of the Wutai cult, and will be a great resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Religion, Philosophy, History, Architecture, Literature and Art. The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal Studies in Chinese Religions.
