The Prison of Fire for Demons by Florian C. Reiter presents a study of Taoist exorcist devices that in Heavenly Masters Taoism in the past and even today are dispensable for exorcist rituals. It focusses on exorcism that mainly was performed for the individual client. Sometimes large-scale liturgies were required, but often less-demanding ritual efforts sufficed. The study relies on the collections A Corpus of Taoist Rituals and Pearls Inherited from the Sea of Rituals in the Ming Taoist Canon. Reiter presents an exorcist tradition of Thunder Magic Rituals from Hunan-province and another one from Sichuan province. The leading Thunder divinity in the latter tradition is Marshal T¿ien-p¿eng who is associated with the God-Emperor of the North and has a background in Shang-ch¿ing Taoism. Reiter selects exorcist devices such as the Prison of Fire for Demons and various other types of demon-prisons. He also discusses the abundant amulets and seals for exorcist rituals, and presents the Divine Stick of T¿ien-p¿eng which is a small wooden ritual tool that today is still in use. The practice of submitting formal applications to the spirit Thunder administration to get the divine approval and backing for any specific exorcism is introduced as well. Reiter displays the historic frame for applying the exorcist devices and defines these practices as constituent elements of Heavenly Masters Taoism. All those methods and devices serve the salvation of individual clients and support society as a whole.

Neuware - Early in the T'ang Period (8th century) the imperial administration was tuned to support a developing Taoist religious culture. Evidence thereof is the establishment of temples, the officially ordered ordination and installation of Taoist priests, and especially the publication and distribution of Taoist religious literature in the form of an officially sanctioned Canon. The interest the T'ang state took in organizing the canonical representation of the Chinese religions came to be a lasting element of Chinese cultural history. The Taoist canonical title The Beginning of the Subtle School of Taoism documents some state efforts that preceded the edition of the first T'ang Taoist canon. Large numbers of outstanding secular scholars and eminent Taoist priests, mainly stationed at temples in the capital Ch'ang-an, followed the summons of emperor Hsüan-tsung to study, to work on, and to organize the Taoist scriptures in the imperial library. The canonical title I-ch'ieh tao-ching yin-i miao-men yu-ch'i reveals the intention and the scope of these academic efforts. The present volume studies the encyclopedic source, presents Preface and contents, and also compares other Taoist encyclopedias of the T'ang period in order to describe the official perception of Taoism in the early T'ang period. The assumed excellence and pre***nt importance of the teachings of the scriptures (ching-chiao ) for the official acceptance and appreciation of Taoist culture is shown to overshadow further on the canonical editions that tend to shroud the exorcist-ritual side (fa-chiao) as an independent and yet integral phenomenon of Taoist religion. 127 pp. Englisch.
