<< review queue entry 10778 - submitted by 'karanmisra' >> << resubmitted review queue entry 6650 >> (2) Zhaijiao Buddhism. People associated with lineages of nonmonastic (but sometimes celibate) religious practitioners who claim they, rather than monastics, have inherited the Buddha’s true Dharma. Outsiders, such as governments and scholars, have classified these groups under the rubric zhaijiao 齋教, but originally this was a term of self-reference for only one of several lineages that are today called zhaijiao. The term zhaijiao is difficult to translate concisely, but means something like “vegetarian teachings.” http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~dmgildow/1.2.3.html |
