  1. Funeral Music

    Relapsing Taoist posted a topic in The Rabbit Hole

    Happy new year! Can you help me with some examples/signposting to Daoist funeral music traditions - sonic, written, video, transcription, any depiction really - for new bit of academic research [and probably a bit personal too]. Reaching out to see what knowledge is here. Any advice appreciated!

  2. Hello from Taipei

    Ghostexorcist posted a topic in Welcome

    I am an American who became interested in Daoism though martial arts movies and Chinese literature. I currently live in Taipei, Taiwan where I teach English as a second language. My hobby is to visit local temples and record various rituals. For example, here is a ritual wishing a happy birthday to Qitian Dasheng ("Great Sage Equaling Heaven"), a.k.a. the Monkey King (he is worshiped in southern China, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Singapore). I'm not sure of the specific school, though. One scholar I asked initially suggested Chanhe (a school heavily influenced by Buddhism), but later changed his guess to some generic, modern Taiwanese brand passing as Quanzhen.
