Said "North South can show." North were advocated "whisk see the net," the Jianxiu, data transmission after the decline; Nanzong heritage is very broad, become orthodox Zen to "sutra", "King Kong", "Awakening of Faith" as the main doctrine based represented as "Platform Sutra." A Brief History of Buddhism came to China after the ----, Zen meditation or thought has been widely spread, translated many Zen had been in the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Northern and Southern, Zen became very important genre. Legend has it that Bodhidharma in the Six Qi, Liang crossing between east from India, Liang common (520 ~ 526) to Luoyang to promote meditation before. Buddhist meditation is not the time because of the weight, is into the temple walls at ease concept of "two into four lines of" Zen wisdom to teach his disciples, said infertility is. Hui six years from Bodhidharma Bodhidharma taught to "sutra" 4 volumes. After seclusion in public Shu Wan Shan State (now Anhui hill northeast), preach in Sengcan. Sengcan by law and then hidden in the Shu State Sikong Hill (now Hubei, Anhui, too), desolate meditation, not Man Kee, secret law does not pass.

Its "desolate meditation, not Man Kee, speaking Metaphysics, silent Grantor" style, the unique open Chinese Zen Buddhism, Zen on the later development of great impact. There Shenxiu famous disciple, Hui Neng, Hoi An, Chi Shen et. According to legend, was elected heir law Hongren disciples, Yi Ji life we all make when Shenxiu as verse: "the body is the Bodhi tree, the heart like a mirror _set_s; always wipe ground, rendering the dust alight."

Shenxiu in Hongren silence after Yangshan Yuquan to Jingzhou when Philip Chan, who more than 20 years gathered in the door is to the north respectively. God worked in Nanyang, Luoyang Hong Zen, Zen Sect then into orthodox Patriarch cases wind Domination in the world. Shenxiu North Munenori doors lonely, do not pass generations that decline. Classic ---- The cases are in accordance with the classic, first "sutra", after the "Diamond Sutra", "Platform Sutra" is his masterpiece. The net theory ---- advocate Mind, the Buddha there, and see the Buddha. Dharma is based primarily on "two into", "four lines" doctrine. "Two into" means "truth in" and "line into." Management into the revelation by virtue taught, convinced that the same beings true nature, but as the dust off the cover delusion can not reveal, so to make it jump simplicity homes, repair a heart like a wall unwavering view of law, against all the difference in phase , consistent with the rationale of the true nature, silent inaction.

A time when serious abuses Zen, Rinzai, Soto interpleader short length, the Life Extension Hogan were made "mirror were recorded" 100 volumes, for the purpose of the factions to reconcile differences hold attitudes aimed at supporting the decline Remedies. But 100 years after the book in circulation engraved version, and soon to be additions and changes to the Ming dynasty was restored old concept. Qing Yongzheng was respected while, but not always in play in Zen. After the show, the line between Jinyuan has Cao Yuan Zong has Rinzai this, there Rinzai Ming and Qing Yuan Wu, Cao Yuan Yin et guru, continues to promote meditation, have failed to restore the decline, and has been found in three cases : ① Song, there have been advocating Pure Land unity; ② competition for legitimacy, Cloud Gate Rinzai descendants were distorted heritage, the Cloud Gate, discernment two Nanyue Huai attributed to a series, and the original Green Line Best described as a series of one only Soto; ③ Yongzheng emperor wrote "pick magic Distinction record" to interfere in the political power of Zen internal disputes, forcing the major temple belongs to suppress factions, such as the Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, etc., changed, but .

Effects ---- Zen Buddhism spread longest in China in various sects, still stretches without a break. It philosophical thought in China also have an important impact. Song and Ming Dynasties representatives such as Zhou, Zhu Xi, Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao, Jiuyuan, Wang Shou-ren have to absorb nutrients from Zen.

Zen drip
禅宗 禅学点滴
Zen, like all lively traditions, like their origins, are filled with a lot of myths and legends, so Zen conduct, but also nature and the relationship between the occurrence of Sakyamuni Buddha. It is said that once, Lingshan Buddha in the meeting said, he took a flower, facing you, without a word, then the audience looked at each other, do not know why. Only Kassapa will carefully smile. So we are pleased to say that the Buddha: "I have Zhengfayancang, Nirvana wonderful heart, no phase reality, subtle Dharma, can not stand text, teach outside Biography, Fuzhu Maha Kassapa." So it between Zen flower and a smile born. You might think that this story is so beautiful, may not be true; but I think that because it is so beautiful, it is impossible to be false. Zen's life does not depend on the facts of history. No matter who created this story, apparently he has grasped the spirit of Zen - smile because flowers, flowers by a laugh. Kassapa, is said to be the ancestor of Zen in India, after the passing of his twenty-seven generations to Bodhidharma is the twenty-eighth ancestors, but also in India last Zen ancestors. After Bodhidharma came to China, has become the Chinese ancestor of Zen. So Bodhidharma in the history of Zen can be said of a communication bridge between India and thoughts. This twenty-eight Indian Zen ancestors legal system, according to research are descendants fabricated (by the translator, Dr. Hu Shi in Heze Masters God will pass over once research), there is no mention in the Indian Sanskrit Zen legal traditions. This Zen "Zen" word originally, but its meaning is very different from the Pali Jhāna "Dhyana" transliteration come (Sanskrit is Dhyāna). "Dhyana" refers to a spiritual focus, refers to a hierarchical meditation, and "Zen" in Chinese Patriarch know, it refers to the body of an insight, or a means of self kind of participation certificates. They repeatedly remind students, meditation and reflection, will lose the spirit of Zen. Dr. Hu Shi had played, said: "China does not come from India, Zen yoga or meditation that, on the contrary, it is a revolution of yoga or meditation that is." Maybe this is not a revolutionary purpose, but a natural transition, but whether it is or revolutionary change, "Zen" is different from "Dhyana" is a fact. Dr. Suzuki said: "Today we are called as Zen, in India is none." He believes that Chinese people have construed insight meditation, is a thoughtful, but also testament to China gulping like people do not want to absorb Buddhism in India, he said: "The Chinese people practice the spirit of the kind of rich imagination, creating a Zen, so that they in religious emotions get the greatest satisfaction. " In the author's view, the earliest form of Zen Buddhism Mahayana is being driven, this alone Laozhuang revival of Taoism, etc., in fact, does not constitute the kind of lively Zen-like spirit. But to say it seems to be contradictory, because Mahayana Buddhism's push to make a thorough insight Laozhuang in the Zen way to get the revival and development. Tom Mushi Merton (Thomas Merton) Mr. Zeng very insightful to say: "Master Tang Dynasty Zhuangzi inherited real ideological influence people." We can also say that Jackson is their most fundamental 悟力 Laozhuang insightful and consistent, the first two chapters of the Tao Te Ching would say the metaphysical foundation of Zen. As for the relationship between Zen and Chuang Tzu, Dr. Suzuki of very clear, he said: "The most obvious trait is that Zen emphasizes the inner witness of this witness, and Zhuangzi Oblivion, Shinsaibashi and towards Toru is. exactly the same. " If this argument is good, then the fundamental spirit of Chuang Tzu is the core of Zen. The only difference is still stuck in Zhuangzi pure 悟力 rather Zen enlightenment is developed as a result in training; This training is also today a special contribution to the Japanese Zen. So know Mind fasting, Oblivion, after thorough toward the realm will help us understand the nature of Zen.

Three Realms
① Shinsaibashi: "Shinsaibashi" found in Zhuangzi Human World in a conversation between Confucius and Yan Hui said Yen Hui, once going to defend the country to lobby, he poured a pot of cold water Confucius, an effort that he has not done Junichi chaos realm, if rashly go to the bridge, not only useless, but harmful, so consult Yan Hui Confucius Bianxiang method Confucius told him to "Shinsaibashi" said: "If a Chi, no listening with your ears, and listen to the heart, No listen to the heart, and listen to the air, listen beyond the ear, the heart beyond the operator; gas also who were also false and subject matter, the only gathers virtual, virtual who Shinsaibashi heart. " ② Oblivion: "Oblivion" word of intent Levin Ji (Legge) turned to "I sat forgetting everything," Jia Ersi (Ciles) and Lin Yutang turned to "I sat forget yourself," Feng turned to " forget everything, "Suzuki turned to the" heart and forget ", I think this" sit "to savor the word should not be literally, it means, can be said to sit on and forget, or sunk in the forgotten realm. The forgotten wide range, including forgot himself and forget things, not only to sit in order to forget, but in any case can not forget. Here is the story of Oblivion Zhuangzi's description: At one point, Yen Hui told Confucius said, his kung fu great advances have been forgotten virtue, Confucius that he not impressive enough. A few days later, he told Confucius said that he had forgotten the ritual, Confucius is still not to be commended. Another for some time, he told Confucius said he had "Oblivion" was. This realm even Confucius may not know, ask Yan Hui, Yan Hui explained: "falling limbs, dismiss wise, from the shape to know, the same as Chase, we called Oblivion." ③ towards Toru "North Korea Toru" is a realm of Taoist practitioners, Chuang Tzu had written about a story about North Korea Toru. Once, someone asked female Yu, why he so old, but still looks like a child, like tender, female Yu told him it was won channel effect. The man then asked female Yu: whether he can learn Road? Female Yu said he did not learn in material frankly; then put their own teaching students through lean Bu Liang told him: The "sage, sage report was also easy to carry I still keep advertised, three days, then can the outer world;. Outside world have been men, and I keep it on 7, then can foreign objects; already carry foreign objects , and I keep the 29, and then be able to exogenous; has exogenous men, and then be able towards Toru; towards Toru then visibility alone, then alone can see no past and no past and then not be able to enter in the immortality of Health. " Above, the reason why I cited at length Zhuangzi three paragraphs, but because it contains a lot of seeds of Zen. Of course, we can not deny that they are Zen Buddhist, but they prefer Laozhuang for thought, but they chose those affected and Laozhuang similar purport in Buddhism, whereas for special development. In addition, the Zhuangzi "real" thinking too deeply influenced generations of Jackson, the most significant is the Rinzai Yi Hyun, and carried him out of the Rinzai sect have to live to the highest level. The most important idea is Zhuangzi "Cardiff have live then have true knowledge," which emphasizes existence precedes knowledge, this is also a major feature of Zen - first exist and then kept in the dark. Zen thoughts exactly and Descartes, "I think, therefore I am" On the contrary, but "I think therefore I am."

Recent Virginia (Virginia) had a Mexican Fenty (William.C.Mcfadden) professor, who convened a three-day meeting each university students to discuss factors present tense psychological Young University, where he "is what makes them trouble, "a brief meeting after the text says: "When all possible stress factors are listed, one student said:" The cause of all these is that they were all not. I always feel that there is a another reason, "echoed another said:." So I think there is an indescribable thing that I worry, "another one said:?" The disturbing thing, nothing seems to be void , but how can we describe the emptiness of it? "some believe is the lack of anger, or the United States due to, but these views are immediately rejected, we all feel this thing trance, indescribable, and finally there is an eloquent student made the following conclusion, he said: "In our mind, always felt the lack of space, so that we breathe". " Professor ink then play said: "Restless human mind for a long time, they seek absolute, seeking immortality, eternal quest to seek unlimited, but in fact this is definitely since it is infinite, then it must be elusive, non-boundaries, is a similar void no matter things and this infinite boundaries if you can, then it is no longer a limitless. The author does not think Zen and Taoism. But he was revealing an extremely vivid perception, so that we understand why Zen and Taoism are so attracted Western youth, they want to go from Zen and Taoism seeking something that makes them worry. They are tired of those preconceptions and traditional religious creed. Zen tradition for them, like geometry, like those that can convey only emphasized, but completely ignored those who can not convey. This thing is not communicated to explore the world of Zen and Taoism. Zen and Taoism are not really able to convey something that can not be conveyed, but there are ways they lead it out of care, so that our mind open, there is more room to breathe. The most prominent feature Chinese spirit, not the joy of a systematic description of the concept, we most touching poems, are those "words have meaning poor and endless" quatrains, can use the word, the performance of the sensual, is not the most realistic. Chinese spirit is beyond words, sound, top color, it is by the word to write unlimited, no sound by sound to say, by the color Ming invisible, that is, by contrast spiritual substance.
