metadata.value: The story of Bodhisattva Guanyin with a Fish Basket (or Fishmonger Guanyin)
  already has attracted attention of scholars of Chinese literature and popular beliefs,
  as it represents an indigenous modification of the Indian Buddhist deity; but until now
  scholars in different countries mainly have studied textual variants of this story dating
  back to the late 19th — early 20th centuries. At the same time, precious scroll devoted
  to the story of Guanyin with a Fish Basket is still recited by local performers in the city
  of Changshu and its vicinity now. The analysis of the Precious Scroll of Guanyin with a
  Fish Basket in the context of recitation practice of “telling scriptures” in Changshu allows
  demonstrating the special features of functioning of a Chinese Buddhist narrative in
  the folk ritual practice. In this variant of a precious scroll, the story of Bodhisattva Guanyin
  converting the inhabitants of a fishermen village is combined with the veneration
  of local tutelary deities, placed on the “family altars”; thus representing the secularized
  form of Chinese Buddhist devotion.
