Early Chinese Mysticism : Philosophy and Soteriology… von Livia Kohn

A history of the evolution of Taoism and its synthesis with Buddhism during the Tang dynasty. The impressive eclecticism of ancient Chinese thought is on full show here as well as the curiously political focus of much of the writing. Kohn shows that this is really an exploration of how the Tao operates in society. Most interesting is the way indigenous Chinese philosophy assimilated Mahāyāna concepts and how congenial those concepts were to Taoist thought.
