Yao Yu Lin

Known today mainly through a single surviving title, this writer is credited as a co-author of a Chinese work on the sea goddess Mazu. The record is faint, which gives the book an added sense of mystery and historical distance.

天妃顯聖錄

About the author

Yao Yu Lin is listed as the co-author of 天妃顯聖錄 (Tien Fei Hsieng Seng Lu), a Chinese text about the life, miracles, and worship of the goddess Tien Fei, also known as Mazu. Project Gutenberg and related catalog pages name Yao Yu Lin alongside Qi You Huang as the book’s authors.

Beyond that attribution, I could not confirm many reliable biographical details from the sources available online. The strongest evidence points to Yao Yu Lin as a historical Chinese author associated with religious or legendary writing rather than as a widely documented modern literary figure.

Because the public record appears very limited, it is safest to keep the picture simple: Yao Yu Lin is remembered through this preserved work, which helps carry an important strand of Chinese maritime belief and storytelling into the present.
