Synopsis: This two-volume book anthologizes 54 articles by Mr. Xie Xuanjun over thirty years. The first volume consists of works before he became a Christian in 1996, and the second volume consists of works after he became a Christian. But the views in the two volumes are quite inter-consistent, indicating that the discussions contained therein do not proceed from sectional positions, but rather from genuine feelings. Buddhism, an important component of the second phase of the Chinese civilization, was spread throughout the East Asia, and started to decline in China with the end of the second phase of the Chinese civilization.
