Synopsis

Many Chinese citizens practice some kind of Chinese folk religion, even though the country officially espouses state atheism. The Chinese civilization has hosted a variety of religious and philosophical traditions. Confucianism, Taosim and Buddhism have played a huge role in shaping Chinese culture. There are no clear boundaries between these intertwined religious systems. Buddhism, Taoism, Catholicism, Protestantism and Islam are the religions formally recognized by the Chinese government. There has been increasing official recognition of Confucianism and Chinese folk religion as part of China's cultural inheritance. Folk or popular religion is the most widespread system of beliefs and practices. This book provides comprehensive insights into the different aspects of religions in China. It is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theories and practices of Chinese religions. Those with an interest in this field would find this book helpful.
