| Итог: | This study examines a unique Zhunti Mantra Sheet, preserved at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, which epitomizes the fusion of Sino-Japanese Buddhist exchanges during the Republican era (1912-1949). The research delves into the origin, function, and transformation of the sheet, positing that its provenance stems from the confluence of the Ledgers of Merit and Demerit and the Zhunti cult in late imperial China. Further analysis reveals that the sheet incorporates elements from both Chinese and Japanese Buddhism, accentuating the influence of Japanese Buddhism on its Chinese counterpart, with particular emphasis on the impact of Juntei worship in Japan on the Chinese Zhunti cult. This serves as a testament to Sino-Japanese Buddhist interconnectedness during a specific historical period and underscores the transcultural nature of the religious practice and iconography. |
