Description
It is so painful to know of the brilliant legacy of Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and other paths in China that flourished, and see how religion is so under siege today. And along with these indigenous traditions we can see how Islam and Christianity are also under attack.
Dr. Kelly Clark has done extensive research in China over the the years. He's finally published "A Spiritual Geography of Early Chinese Thought: Gods, Ancestors and Afterlife." These episodes contain our conversations. The story is both uplifting and sad. Listen, gentlefolk. Listen.
Theme music "Nigal."
