"Co-Winner of the 1988 Best First Book Prize in the History of
Religions, American Council of Learned Societies"
"Teiser offers an excellent study of the role of the festival in
medieval (third-to-ninth centuries) Chinese religious life. . . .
[A] vibrant portrayal of the living faith of a large portion of
medieval China. . . . His transcendence of traditional boundaries
between Buddhology and sinology has set a new standard for future
studies of Chinese religion."---Terry F. Kleeman, The Journal of
Asian Studies
"An admirable attempt to focus on the interstices of Chinese and
Buddhist conceptions of the afterlife."---Linda L. Lam-Easton,
Religious Studies Review
