▼a Spirituality in modern society -- The making of oriental religion -- Conversion to Indian and Chinese modernities -- Secularism's magic -- "Smash temples, build schools": comparing secularism in India and China -- The spiritual body -- Muslims in India and China.
▼a The Modern Spirit of Asia challenges the notion that modernity in China and India are derivative imitations of the West, arguing that these societies have transformed their ancient traditions in unique and distinctive ways. Peter van der Veer begins with nineteenth-century imperial history, exploring how Western concepts of spirituality, secularity, religion, and magic were used to translate the traditions of India and China.
