This is a view of Chinese religion from the Taoist perspective,
derived from fieldwork in Taiwan, Hong Kong and the People's
Republic of China. The book is based on the Taoist hypothesis that
all Chinese rites of passage and festivals are structured by the
Yin-Yang five element cosmology. Buddhist and Taoist meditations of
emptying, marriage, birthing, initiation, burial, ancestor rituals
and the annual festivals are described through the eyes of the
experts called on to serve family and village needs. The work ends
with a view of religion in the People's Republic of China during a
period of renewal and restoration.
