An illuminating in-depth study of one of the most well-known and recited Buddhist texts, by a renowned modern translator The Prajna Paramita Hridaya Sutra is among the best known of all the Buddhist scriptures.

Christianity and the Modern Woman in East Asia
This edited volume explores the complex roles that Christian ideas and institutions played in the construction of modern womanhood in East Asia. While contributing to gender dynamics that disprivileged women in China, Japan, and Korea, Christianity was also instrumental in women’s efforts to empower themselves and participate in the public sphere. Many literate East Asian women mobilized Christian beliefs, knowledge, institutions, and networks to raise the profile of “The Woman Question,” frame the contours of the related debate, and craft original responses. These chapters examine East Asian women who were markedly influenced by Christianity as students, trainees, educators, professionals, and activists. Using their increased visibility and resources, they addressed the dilemmas and promises of modernity for women in their countries.

At the peak of the Yellow Mountain, the devil was reborn; on the banks of the Karas Lake, the mysterious master manipulated the devil; in the distant skies, the Heavenly Wolf Lady and the Dark King descended, entangling each other for countless years. the Great Song and Mongolia, the two strongest forces in the north and south, battled endlessly from the martial arts world to the temple.
