This book explores the various ways that the Chinese have conceived of the divine and supernatural from ancient times to the present day. The author examines the meanings attached to the term 'Shin' which has been used in ancient Chinese texts to refer to both divine beings and spiritual forces. The book also delves into the concept of the Kwei Shin, which embodies all things and is considered to be the source of all life and existence, and the idea of the tness of things, which governs the natural order of the universe. By analyzing these concepts, this book provides insights into the religious beliefs and practices of the Chinese people and offers a comprehensive understanding of their spiritual and philosophical worldview.
