Beschreibung

Cao ài is a relatively new, syncretist, monotheistic religion, officially established in the city of Tây Ninh, southern Vietnam, in 1926. o Cao ài is the religion's shortened name, the full name is i o Tam K Ph (Great Religion [of The] Third Period [of] Revelation [and] Salvation). The term Cao ài literally means "Kingdom of Heaven." Figuratively, it means that highest place where God reigns. Caodaiists often use the term c Cao ài (Venerable Cao Dai) as the abbreviated name for God, the creator of the universe, whose full title is Cao ài Tiên Ông i B Tát Ma-ha-tát (translation: Cao Dai [the] Ancient Sage [and] Great Bodhisattva Mahasattva). According to Caodaiists, the full title was purposefully chosen by God because within it are representations of the Three Teachings: Saint, Sage and Buddha. Caodaiists credit God as the religion's founder. They believe the teachings, symbolism and organization were communicated directly from God. Even the construction of the Tây Ninh Holy See is claimed to have had divine guidance.
