The teisho were given by Harada Shodo-roshi at Tahoma Monastery [Tahoma-san Sogen-ji], Whidbey Island, WA, U.S.A. The teisho in this volume were given during the Osesshin of September 2000, February 2001, and September 2001. The English translation of the text, beginning with Chapter one, is from The Sutra of Hui-neng, translated by A. F. Price and Wong Mou-lam. The Introduction is translated by Daichi Zenni, as it is not included in the print edition. A slightly different edition based on the same translation can be found online at: http://www.sinc.sunysb.edu/Clubs/buddhism/huineng/content.html Opening up the Dharma Treasure, the Sixth’s Patriarch’s true marrow, The One Drop of Sogen quenches ours and all descendents’ thirst. From the origin, not one thing! To realize this, throwing away our bodies completely! To actualize this path, to clarify it ultimately, We offer our most sincere mind in gratitude for Buddha’s grace. Opening the Teisho on the Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch September 2000 Introduction Sutra: The mysterious Path, ancient and profound, cannot Osesshin, 2000-09, day one be known with thought. From today we will be reading together This mysterious Path—the teaching outside the Sixth Patriarch’s Dharma Jewel Platform of words and phrases—is the source of the Sutra. Precepts. “Direct pointing to Mind, becoming There are many translations and versions of Buddha,” realizing that Mind which is not in this sutra. It was the Sixth Patriarch’s disciple any way different from the Mind to which the Hokei who first wrote this sutra down, but Buddha was awakened—this is the mysterious since that original was written, so many Path. We cannot know this through thoughts had copied it over and over. Not having the and words and mentation, but only through printing possibilities we have today, people direct perception. If we learn it only with would copy by hand what was useful and words, it is not the actualized truth, it is not necessarily copy it completely. Aurel Stein not the truth to which the Sixth Patriarch found the Tokui version in the caves at Tonko; is referring here. Leaving words behind, we this is thought to be the most complete, and further and further realize the way of Mind this is the version which is most frequently and awaken the radiance. used today. Priest Tokui lived in the town of In our daily life we read books and listen to Zuio in the Kokin area of China. Tokui added words and understand mentally. But as we an introduction or a preface to this sutra, and clean and cook we aren’t doing it with a head it is with this we will begin our study of the full of thoughts, or it is not true cooking or sutra. cleaning. We forget our bodies completely, The Sixth Patriarch is the sixth successor after absorbed in our cooking and cleaning, and Bodhidharma. The official title of his sutra is let go of the ideas about it. We go further and The Dharma Jewel of the Platform Sutra of further into the experiencing of it, and then the Sixth Patriarch, and this title represents we suddenly realize we have come to know the deepest truth of this sutra. It is called The this cooking and cleaning directly; we haven’t Platform Sutra because it was given at the been thinking about our physical body nor same platform where the Sixth Patriarch in have we been full of thoughts. In the zendo, his later years received the Precepts—these if we sleep or if we sit full of thinking or are Precepts which help us live a clear-minded fuzzy and hazy, this is not true zazen. To sit daily life. with not even a space for a thought to enter is what is true zazen. Without this clarity in our life we get easily confused, and so we join together here in Sutra: Accordingly, on Vulture Peak, the osesshin, getting up at the same time, not Buddha shared his seat with his able just doing whatever we feel like. According to disciple, and then held up a flower. rules we all move in unison. Without having Like the passing of flame to flame, to decide anything, we go to the zendo, mind imprints mind; on Vulture we do zazen, we go to meals—keeping the Peak, the Buddha held out a flower. same rhythm, eating the same meals, letting go of our narrow, individual choices and On Vulture Peak, the Buddha held out a flower, small-minded opinions.

It is called a sutra because, like the words and transmitted beyond doctrine. This Buddha’s teaching, it is guiding us to the I have entrusted to Makakasho.” The Buddha truth, guiding us to let go of our egoistic, was teaching in Shaie Koku where there was caught places.

  • Inventing Chinese Buddhas: Identity, Authority, and Liberation in Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism
    Inventing Chinese Buddhas: Identity, Authority, and Liberation in Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism Kevin Buckelew Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Kevin Buckelew All rights reserved Abstract Inventing Chinese Buddhas: Identity, Authority, and Liberation in Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism Kevin Buckelew This dissertation explores how Chan Buddhists made the unprecedented claim to a level of religious authority on par with the historical Buddha Śākyamuni and, in the process, invented what it means to be a buddha in China. This claim helped propel the Chan tradition to dominance of elite monastic Buddhism during the Song dynasty (960–1279), licensed an outpouring of Chan literature treated as equivalent to scripture, and changed the way Chinese Buddhists understood their own capacity for religious authority in relation to the historical Buddha and the Indian homeland of Buddhism. But the claim itself was fraught with complication. After all, according to canonical Buddhist scriptures, the Buddha was easily recognizable by the “marks of the great man” that adorned his body, while the same could not be said for Chan masters in the Song. What, then, distinguished Chan masters from everyone else? What authorized their elite status and granted them the authority of buddhas? According to what normative ideals did Chan aspirants pursue liberation, and by what standards did Chan masters evaluate their students to determine who was worthy of admission into an elite Chan lineage? How, in short, could one recognize a buddha in Song-dynasty China? The Chan tradition never answered this question once and for all; instead, the question broadly animated Chan rituals, institutional norms, literary practices, and visual cultures.

  • A Geographic History of Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism: the Decline of the Yunmen Lineage
    decline of the yunmen lineage Asia Major (2019) 3d ser. Vol. 32.1: 113-60 jason protass A Geographic History of Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism: The Decline of the Yunmen Lineage abstract: For a century during China’s Northern Song era, the Yunmen Chan lineage, one of several such regional networks, rose to dominance in the east and north and then abruptly disappeared. Whereas others suggested the decline was caused by a doctri- nal problem, this essay argues that the geopolitics of the Song–Jin wars were the pri- mary cause. The argument builds upon a dataset of Chan abbots gleaned from Flame Records. A chronological series of maps shows that Chan lineages were regionally based. Moreover, Song-era writers knew of regional differences among Chan lin- eages and suggested that regionalism was part of Chan identity: this corroborates my assertion. The essay turns to local gazetteers and early-Southern Song texts that re- cord the impacts of the Song–Jin wars on monasteries in regions associated with the Yunmen lineage. Finally, I consider reasons why the few Yunmen monks who sur- vived into the Southern Song did not reconstitute their lineage, and discuss a small group of Yunmen monks who endured in north China under Jin and Yuan control. keywords: Chan, Buddhism, geographic history, mapping, spatial data n 1101, the recently installed emperor Huizong 徽宗 (r. 1100–1126) I authored a preface for a new collection of Chan 禪 religious biogra- phies, Record of the Continuation of the Flame of the Jianzhong Jingguo Era (Jianzhong Jingguo xudeng lu 建中靖國續燈錄, hereafter Continuation of the Flame).1 The emperor praised the old “five [Chan] lineages, each ex- celling in a family style 五宗各擅家風,” a semimythical system promul- gated by the Chan tradition itself to assert a shared identity among the ramifying branches of master-disciple relationships.

  • BEYOND THINKING a Guide to Zen Meditation
    ABOUT THE BOOK Spiritual practice is not some kind of striving to produce enlightenment, but an expression of the enlightenment already inherent in all things: Such is the Zen teaching of Dogen Zenji (1200–1253) whose profound writings have been studied and revered for more than seven hundred years, influencing practitioners far beyond his native Japan and the Soto school he is credited with founding. In focusing on Dogen’s most practical words of instruction and encouragement for Zen students, this new collection highlights the timelessness of his teaching and shows it to be as applicable to anyone today as it was in the great teacher’s own time. Selections include Dogen’s famous meditation instructions; his advice on the practice of zazen, or sitting meditation; guidelines for community life; and some of his most inspirational talks. Also included are a bibliography and an extensive glossary. DOGEN (1200–1253) is known as the founder of the Japanese Soto Zen sect.
