We all know what a cloud is, but what, we wonder, is meant by "empty"? In Chan (pronounced Jen) or Zen literature the term "empty" appears so often and with so many variations of definition, that I will begin by trying to clarify its meaning. To be empty means to be empty of ego, to be without any thought of self, not in the sense that one functions as a vegetable or a wild animal - living things which merely process water, food and sunlight in order to grow and reproduce - but in the sense that one ceases to gauge the events, the persons, the places, and the things of one's environment in terms of "I" or "me" or "mine". A person who is "empty of self" seldom has occasion even to use these pronouns.

Hoofprint of the Ox is by far the best-written and presented systematic book on Chinese, especially Chan, Buddhism out there. Master Sheng-yens words are so clear and specific. His voice combines the insight of an experienced Chan meditation retreat master and a knowledgeable Buddhist scholar. This book stands out as a rare jewel in the mountain of books on Buddhism. For example, master Sheng-yens presentation of meditation techniques from "five points of stilling the mind" (shamata) and contemplative meditation (vipashyana) to gongan and silent illumination is the best that I have ever read. This book is for the serious practitioner of Chan or Buddhism in general.

HOME HELP Article Bibliography ... 14 Sinicizing Buddhist concepts: is Buddha-nature good or evil? DAN LUSTHAUS 9 The Chinese Buddhist Schools: Chan Better known in the West by its Japanese pronunciation, Zen, Chan emerged as a reaction against the increasing scholastic complexities of the Tiantai and Huayan schools and their voluminous, hairsplitting literature, which, some Chan practitioners believed, could be more of an obstacle than an aid to enlightenment. The Pāli term for meditative absorption, jhāna (Sanskrit, dhyāna ), was transliterated into Chinese as Channa , and then shortened to Chan . Until the early Tang Dynasty, chanshi (Chan master) meant a monk adept at meditation, though it did not specify what sorts of meditation he was practising. Some monks were called dharma masters ( fashi ), some were called scriptural masters ( zangshi ), some were called disciplinary masters ( lushi ) and some were meditation masters. These titles could be applied to a monk (or nun) of any school, since they denoted one’s methodological focus rather than one’s ideological leanings. Chan begins to denote a specific doctrinal and meditative ideology around the time of Huineng (638–713). Although Chan tradition describes a transmission by five patriarchs culminating in

This is a work-in-progress. If you have good citations, please send them. I'll get the internal links sorted out eventually. Please, bear with me. I want to get this posted for all who have asked. Since it is all text, it should load fairly quickly... If you only want a portion, highlight it, then copy and paste the text into your word processor, then print. THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE EXHAUSTIVE!!! I don't have the six lifetimes it would take! But it is meant to be as thorough as I can make it and it should give you a good place to start on some of the larger areas of study. This could easily be split up into smaller or different categories ( I swear I will get around to it!!! It will have to be done soon, because the download is getting too long.), but I want this stuff out there. Some citations may be "incomplete". For instance, they may lack the place of publication; I will get those added as I am able to find them. In the meantime, you can go though a section and mark what you are interested in. It won't take you but a minute to read through the section you are interested in, you know.... I will keeping adding cites as time allows. Search this page: by author or key-word?
