- Reading: Eastern Mythology
Does anyone know of some good places to learn about eastern mythology? Particularly in the China/Japan/Korea/Mongolian area? I've been interested in it for some time, and wanting to learn about it, but considering the huge popularity of some eastern countries, I've been a little wary of the credibility of some sources. Also, eastern mythology general thread I guess.

Buddhism allowed?
for Japan, the Kojiki and Nihon-Gi are a good start.

The Encyclopedia of Buddhism would be a good starting point to gain a general overview on Buddhism.

That'd be a good read. A friend of mine recently bought a book about zen Buddhism.

It is for me so far. I kinda like the fact that they also included articles discussing the interactions between Buddhism and the other religions
