| Abstract | As the Gelugpa tradition of Tibetan Buddhism spread throughout Inner Asia, it flourished in the territories of what is now Inner Mongolia for 400 years. However, Buddhism in Inner Mongolia is virtually unstudied by anthropologists. This chapter shows the complexity of popular Buddhist practice in eastern Inner Mongolia. What is the relationship between lamas and laity? What are Mongolian interpretations of Buddhist cosmology and the concept of nirv›˚a? How has Buddhism coexisted with other religious beliefs in Inner Mongolia? The chapter includes a case study of one Inner Mongolian monastery, the Khulustai Monastery in Naiman Banner of Tongliao Municipality (Jirim league) and its lay communities. The material relates mostly to the period of the 1940s to 1960s, using the author’s observations and interviews with senior lamas, older generations of the laity, published materials, and Japanese data of that period. |
