No sustained attempt has been made to assign texts to one or another known liturgy such as the Bema fest for several reasons, including that insufficient leaves survived of what appear to have been service books (like the Iranian "Prayer and Confession Book," M801) that would have provided a structure for supporting such judgments. Nonetheless, certain texts retain some narrative portions of liturgies, including several texts connected with the ritual of confession, one connected with the sacred meal, and several other segments belonging to unidentified rituals. Because liturgical texts written in Uygur were produced in the period of Uygur sponsorship of the religion (approximately from the middle of the 8th century through the first quarter of the 11th century), they may in instances reflect the participation of real people in real time during that period (e.g. those confessors whose names appear in copies of the Xw?stw?n?ft). However, the liturgical content of such texts is fundamentally religious and static, and does not incorporate dedications or references to contemporary secular or spiritual figures or events (the latter kinds of hymns, songs and appeals are edited as Benedictions in the Ecclesiastical volume). |  Aggiungi al Carrello |
