It explores the order?s modern Buddhist social engagements by examining three globally dispersed field sites: Los Angeles in the United States of America, Bronkhorstspruit in South Africa, and Yixing in the People?s Republic of China. The data collected at these field sites is embedded within the context of broader theoretical discussions on Buddhism, modernity, globalization, and the nation-state. By examining how one particular modern Buddhist religiosity that developed in a specific place moves into a global context, the book provides a fresh view of what constitutes both modern and contemporary Buddhism while also exploring the social, cultural, and religious fabrics that underlie the spatial configurations of globalization. 606 $aBuddhism$xRelations 606 $aBuddhism 606 $aMahayana Buddhism 610 $aBuddhism. 610 $aEthnography. 610 $aFo Guang Shan. 610 $aTransnational mobility. 615 0$aBuddhism$xRelations. 615 0$aBuddhism. 615 0$aMahayana Buddhism. 676 $a294.392 700 $aReinke$b Jens$01591847 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996580167103316 996 $aMapping modern mahayana$93907362 997 $aUNISA
