This school, founded by Mazu Daoyi in eighth century Tang China, is generally regarded as the beginning of "classical" or "Chinese" Chan. The project will:
  • explore the doctrinal reformation of the Hongzhou school and the formal shaping of Chinese Chan proper by analyzing Daoyi's core teaching and his new mode of Chan discourse;
  • trace the doctrinal background of the Hongzhou school and discuss the influence of various lines of early Chan, of the Tiantai and Huayan schools of Buddhism, and of traditional Chinese thought and religion;
  • discuss the Hongzhou School's impact on the five houses of Chan; and
  • further explore the interaction between the Hongzhou school and the Tang literati, and also provide a collated and annotated translation of the Recorded Sayings of Mazu Daoyi. Funding Source: CityU Research Grant

    Linguistic Strategies in Daoist Zhuangzi and Chan Buddhism: The Other Way of Speaking
    - Book Review, by Youru Wang
    From the Publisher

    As the first systematic attempt to probe the linguistic strategies of Daoist Zhuangzi and Chan Buddhism, this book investigates three areas: deconstructive strategy, liminology of language, and indirect communication. It bases these investigations on the critical examination of original texts, placing them strictly within soteriological contexts.While focusing on language use, the study also reveals some important truths about the two traditions, and the challenges many conventional understandings of them. Responding to recent critiques of Daoist and Chan Buddhist thought, it brings these traditions into a constructive dialogue with contemporary philosophical reflection. It "discovers" Zhuangzian and Chan perspectives and sheds light on issues such as the relationship between philosophy and non-philosophy, de-reification of words, relativizing of the limit of language, structure of indirect communication, and use of double negation, paradox, tautology, irony, and poetic language.

    Seeing through Zen : Encounter, Transformation, and Genealogy in Chinese Chan Buddhism > Customer Review #1: from a pratitioners point of view

    I appreciate McRaes book for its new (to me) perspective on Chinese Chan (Zen). My introduction to Zen through the radio talks of Alan Watts, the Zen stories in "Zen Flesh, Zen Bones" and the books of D. T. Suzuki instilled in me a romantic view of the old masters. This book grounds this romanticism and offers a new way to regard the evolution of Zen and to engage in its practice.
    Of particular interest to me is the discussion of the arising in China of the importance of lineage. Lineage is still taken quite seriously in many of our current Zen/Chan/Son schools in the West. I suspect many readers will balk at McRaes perspective. However, I like being cast adrift, as it were. "Be a beacon unto yourselves," as Gautama is reported to have said.

    Chan Buddhism
    Chan Buddhism in the news =Chan Buddhism= Chan or Ch'an is an earliar Chinese form of the Japanese Zen ' Buddhism. Both are derived from a synthesis of Indian Dhyana meditation al) Buddhism with Chinese Taoism . The union of the two philosophies was possible because of the work of Buddhist missionaries who brought the Buddhist Dharma to China . Legend has it that the chief among these missionaries was Bodhidharma. He is generally credited with bringing Dhyana Buddhism to China around the year 440 CE. It is not possible to say which is the 'correct' form of the word Chan since the original word is from the Sanskrit adapted into Chinese, then into Japanese and written subsequently in English characters and punctuation.

    Chinese Buddhism
    Buddhism entered China a few centuries after the passing away of the Buddha, at a time when Confucianism and Taoism were the predominant religions in a country that was as a big as a continent and rivaled India in historical antiquity and cultural pluralism. In the early phases of its entry, Buddhism did not find many adherents in China. But by the 2nd Century AD, aided to some extent by the simplicity of its approach and some similarities with Taoism, it managed to gain a firm foothold and acquired a sizeable following. The arrival of many new Buddhist scholars from the Indian subcontinent and central Asia, like An Shih-Kao, a Parthinian monk, and Lokakshema, a Kushana monk from Central Asia gave an impetus to the new religion that had many attractive features besides an inbuilt organizational approach to the study and pursuit of religion. During the same period many Buddhist texts were translated from Pali and Sanskrit into Chinese. The collapse of Han dynasty around 220 AD, was followed by a period of confusion which continued to trouble Chinese society for the next 350 years. During this period Confucianism and Taoism gradually yielded place to Buddhism. The new Mongolian rulers of China from the Northern Wei dynasty and some rulers in the south like Emperor Wu found in Buddhism a great opportunity to demolish the old order and establish a new one. As a result by 6th Century AD, China was teaming with millions of Buddhist monks and thousands of monasteries.

    57. Liu Institute New Orleans: Shaolin Kung Fu History
    It was said that during this period Bodhidharma reached enlightenment and from it developed a new sect of Buddhism known as chan buddhism.
    http://www.shaolin-world.net/history/history.html
    The Shaolin Temple
    The Past and Present - Over 1500 Years of History
    By Master Shawn Liu
    The Shaolin Temple was founded in 495 A.D. during the 19 th Beiwei Dynasty, by Bada, a Buddhist Monk from India, who came to China in 464 to preach Buddhism. Bada's sincerity persuaded the Buddhist Emperor, Xiaowen, to build a temple in the Shao mountain forest in the Song Mountains. The temple was named after the mountain and the forest - Shao Shi Shan Lin meaning "Young Forest".
    That was not only the beginning of Shaolin Temple, but also the beginning of Shaolin Kungfu. As the history of the Temple unfolds, there go many stories of the two famous early marital arts monks: Hui Guang and Seng Chou. Both of them were disciples of Bada. Hui Guang was brought to the Temple by Bada on one occasion when he was passing by Tian Street, in Luoyang seeing a boy of about 12 years kicking a shuttlecock around a well for over 500 times without a pause.
    Seng Chou was not only famous for his spirituality and Chan enlightenment but as a monk capable of leaping onto roofs and walking along narrow walls without difficulty. His hands and legs possessed such a great power that he would often break rocks without using any tools when he needed the rocks to repair the front door stairs of his residence. He is most famous for breaking tigers' fights.

    SUNGTAEK CHO
    6 Unified Silla period: introduction of S´n
    A new epoch occurred in Korean Buddhism upon the transmission of S´n (Chan) Buddhism from China. This new movement, with its strong emphasis on meditational practice, entered Korea not long after it was introduced into China. According to traditional accounts, it was P´mnang fl. 632–46) who first introduced Chan Buddhism to Korea, following his study under Daoxin (580–651), the fourth patriarch of the Chinese Chan school. His lineage was passed down through Sinhaeng Chunb´m and Hye»n until it reached Chis´n Tohon (824–82), who founded the Mount Huiyang school, the oldest S´n lineage in Korea, in 879. Within a hundred-year period, from the eighth to the ninth centuries, eight other mountain schools were founded. From this time onwards, the term Nine Mountains has come to represent Korean S´n schools in general, and this number remained unchanged during the early Kory´ period. Eight of Korea’s nine mountain schools (the exception was the Mount Sumi school) were derived from or related to the Chinese Hongzhou school. As noted by Zongmi (780–841), the noted Chinese Buddhist commentator and philosopher, the Hongzhou school had a close doctrinal affiliation with Huayan. Most of the Korean monks who came to China to study Buddhism were already familiar with Hwa´m philosophy, as it was the predominant school in Korea at that time. Therefore it is not surprising that they were attracted to the Hongzhou school. However, the fundamental difference between Huayan and Chan must not be overlooked: while the former emphasizes scriptural study, the latter rejects it, choosing rather to espouse ‘a separate transmission outside the scriptures’. This crucial difference may also have attracted the Silla monks, who were perhaps frustrated with the philosophically elaborate and priest-centred Hwa´m school.

    “Stand Like a Pine with a Helium Helmet”. The Influences of Qi and chan buddhism in both Chinese Classical Dance. and Modern Dance.
    http://www.chinesedance.bc.ca/dancecentralarticle1.html
    “Stand Like a Pine with a Helium Helmet” The Influences of Qi and Chan Buddhism in both Chinese Classical Dance and Modern Dance Chinese dance has always played a central role in my life. It was handed down to me by my mother, Lorita Leung, who was a professional Chinese dancer in China, and became an integral part of my cultural identity as a Chinese-Canadian. Between 1991 and 1996, I had the opportunity to study Chinese Folk and Minority dance at the Beijing Dance Academy and the Central Institute for the Minorities. This past summer, I completed a one-year program in Chinese Classical dance at the Guangdong Dance School. These experiences, when added to my studies in Modern dance at SFU, have led me to draw interesting connections between Modern dance in North America, and Chinese Classical dance. Modern dance, which sprung its roots in America at the turn of the twentieth-century, is still in its infancy when compared with Chinese Classical dance—which can be traced back to the Han Dynasty that spanned from 206 BC to 24 AD—yet, I find it intriguing that these two culturally distant forms of dance share something in common. Upon returning to Canada from Guangzhou, I felt compelled to explore these similarities, and found that many of the principles that have led to the development of Chinese Classical dance have also influenced Modern dance.
