The Recitation Dharma of Master Kumārajīva (Latter Fragment), compiled during the Eastern Jin Dynasty by Shi Hui Rong and others, is a Buddhist text documenting and organizing the recitation rituals associated with the eminent monk Kumārajīva. This text emerged during the Eastern Jin period, a time when Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains and flourished vigorously. Its content primarily involves practice rituals, recitation methods, and related teachings, reflecting the forms of Buddhist practice at that time. As an important carrier of early Buddhist rituals, this text provides valuable historical material for studying the practice traditions of the Kumārajīva lineage and the Buddhist practices of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, holding significant reference value in the developmental history of Chinese Buddhist ritual traditions.
