Other points of interest
The fóshì section preserves a complete liturgical record of the funerary cycle for Héngshān Dēngbǐng 衡山燈炳 in 1680, paralleling the analogous fóshì sequences in KR6q0557 and KR6q0558 for Sānshān Dēnglái 三山燈來 (1685). Together these provide a remarkable comparative dossier on late-17th-century Sìchuān Jùyún 聚雲 LínjìDàhuì school mortuary ritual.
