Over sixty Buddhist temples and associations represent a diversity of ethnic, national, and linguistic identities. Here, for the first time, is a rigorous, richly detailed, comparative examination of several groups within five Asian Buddhist communities: Japanese-Canadian, Tibetan, Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Chinese." "With an intimate knowledge of her subject matter, McLellan documents each group's establishment in Canada, and the specific shape of that group's practice today. She examines how innovative forms of worship and ritual services developed from the groups' confrontation with Canadian social attitudes, constraints, and policies, and how transplantation acts as a catalyst for alterations in gender roles for both Sangha (ordained clergy) and laity."--Jacket. 606 $aAsians$zOntario$zToronto 606 $aBuddhists$zOntario$zToronto 607 $aToronto (Ont.)$xSocial life and customs 607 $aToronto (Ont.)$xReligious life and customs 608 $aLivres numeriques. 608 $ae-books. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAsians 615 0$aBuddhists 676 $a917.13541044 700 $aMcLellan$b Janet$f1952-$01612348 701 $aWebb$b Sidney$f1859-1947.$0571972 701 $aWebb$b Beatrice$f1858-1943.$0304217 701 $aMichalos$b Alex C$0265868 701 $aPoff$b Deborah C$01612349 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910806858003321 996 $aMany petals of the lotus$93941091 997 $aUNINA
