Apologies for cross-posting:
 
For the upcoming AAR Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas, Nov. 19-22, the AAR Group, Religions in Chinese and Indian Cultures: A Comparative Perspective, is eager to receive proposals dealing either with cross-cultural influence between India and China, or a theme viewed through Indian and Chinese perspectives. This year we are especially seeking proposals dealing with
 
• Afterlife in Chinese and Indian religions
 
• Saints and Sainthood in Chinese and Indian traditions
 
• Maritime silk road
 
Submissions for full panels or individual paper proposals are welcomed. Other themes, especially as a full panel proposal, are also welcomed.
 
The AAR deadline for proposals is March 1, 2016.
 
They should be submitted through the AAR website PAPERS portal.
