Extractions: White Tara is associated with the use of the clairvoyant third eye which is shown on her forehead. She offers protection to beings who are crossing the ocean of existence. She is said to be white and radiant as a thousand full moons. She is often depicted as the consort of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of compassion. Buddhism was introduced into China in the reign of Han Ming (c. 50 AD). The emperor dreamed of a Golden Man in the West who flew into his palace. He sent emissaries from Loyang along the Silk Road and they met two Buddhist monks: Dharmaraksa and Matanga. The monks arrived carrying their manuscripts of the sutras (teachings of Buddha) and their religious articles on a white horse. The King built a temple to honor this and the temple was thus named: The Five Buddhas Mandalas exist on the earth for each of the 5 Buddhas. One such mandala, the dwelling of the Buddha Manjushri, is in the northwest of China near the Kunlun Shan. His color is yellow. His tantric consort may be related to the cult of Li, prominent in the secret societies of The Yellow Turbans and The Temple of the Golden Flower. This theme of the sun goddess was probably exported to Japan and becomes the Shinto Sun Goddess, Amaterasu, a principal deity of Shinto

The former describes a man's journey across America with his son; the latter a man's journey with pig and monkey companions to India to learn the secrets of Buddhist teachings and to bring sacred scriptures back to China. History paints a different picture, however, as numerous Indian missionaries traveled to China to promulgate the Buddhist faith. One, named Bodhidharma ( µÐ´£¹F¼¯ ), arrived in southern China around 520 AD.

Extractions: In the context of the traditional focus on the soul, the self, the mentalism, and the doctrine of Karma and rebirth characteristic of the other Indian religions, Buddhism taught Four Noble Truths: 1.Life is suffering. 2.Suffering comes from desire. 3. Suffering can be ended by ending desire. 4. The eightfold path is the way to eliminate desire. Nietzsche liked the directness of the first noble truth. Where Christianity disguised its hatred of life behind moral concepts such as "sin," Buddhism formulated its pessimism in stark, positivist terms. Nietzsche saw the second as the "nihilistic" attitude they shared with Christians. This opposition to one's natural desires signals a "decadance" morality. The eightfold path includes right views. right aspirations, right speech, right conduct, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right contemplation. The goal of doing everything right is Nirvana. The opposite of Nirvana is Samsarathe cycle of life and deaththe belief in reincarnation was hardly a source of comfort to Buddhists. It doomed us to endless cycles of lives of suffering. Suicide is no help! Only Nirvana is escape. The historical development of Buddhism in India resembled that of Christianity in Europe. At first it struggled with little success until it was adopted by an emperor. What the emporer liked was how the religion helps him motivate people to die for him. Then, with state sponsorship, it grew into the dominant religion in India for a time. During that time it was transferred to China, Japan, Korea, and South-East Asia. Then it declined in its home and survived mainly in its adopted homes.

http://kr.buddhism.org/zen/koan/kiyotaka_kimura.htm

Extractions: It is said that Chan tradition began from Bodhidharma who was born in Persia or south India and came to China around the early days of the sixth century. However, concerning his life, we find out not a few fictions in Chan texts made in the later times in succession. For example, there is a famous story that Bodhidharma met with the emperor Wu of the Liang dynasty and answered him "you have no marit ", when asked about his contributions to the prosperity of Buddhism. We also know a story that Bodhidharma had been sitting for nine years to deepen his meditation. These stories are very significant to recognize true characteristics of Chan Buddhism. But, we can not believe them as historical facts. They seem to have been skillfully drawn up by Chan Buddhists of the southern sect, who stood in the row of Chan of Patriarchs, in order to make Bodhidharma the perfect founder of Ch'an tradition. Then, what was Bodhidharma in fact ? What did he consider ? what did he teach? Has the Chan thought of Bodhidharma properly been accepted and succeeded to by Chan Buddhists who were proud of successors of Chan of Patriarchs ? Were there any essencials of it that were thrown away ? I would like to pursuit these questions from a historical viewpoint in this presentation, focussing on Bodhidharma's practice of recompense and its succession in Chinese Chan tradition. I would be very glad if it gives a clue to see through the modality of Chan movement in the new millenium to lots of Chan researchers and Chan Buddhist.

Extractions: Douglas L. Martin To have nothing in mind is noble. To have no skill and no knowledge is supreme. No abiding, no hermitage, comes next. -Basho Siddhartha Gautama founded Buddhism in the sixth century B.C. He pursued enlightenment by studying with Brahmin gurus, and later by practicing extremely harsh asceticism for five years. At the end of those years, he collapsed into a stream from exhaustion. After the cold water revived him, he decided to give up on asceticism, and meditate under a bo tree until he attained enlightenment, and because he had stopped coveting enlightenment, it suddenly came to him in a flash of inspiration. Siddhartha was then renamed the Buddha (Enlightened One), and he taught his followers to free themselves from grasping desires, and meditate to clear their minds in order to attain enlightenment. Buddhism teaches its followers to avoid either the extreme decadence of the party life, or the extreme of severe asceticism. A monk named Bodhidharma brought Mahayana Buddhism to China in 520 A.D. There, it mingled with Taoist philosophy, and the resulting form of Buddhism was named Chan.

Extractions: pp 204, including Endnotes, Character Glossary, Illustrations, Bibliography and Index book review by Vladimir K., September, 2004 J ohn McRae's latest book will surely upset some Zen students, Buddhist practitioners and teachers and, I suspect, a number of academics. John McRae is the Professor East Asian Buddhism at Indiana University and has published extensively on early Chan history so perhaps other academics may not be as surprised by this book as the non-expert may be. Seeing through Zen McRae makes it clear in the Preface to the book that this is not about how to practice Zen and that he is not a Zen master. Any reader expecting to learn more about how Zen is practised or how to achieve enlightenment will be disappointed and should look elsewhere. However, the book is "resolutely" about Zen. McRae's agenda here is to engage the reader in an "active and critical imagination of the medieval evolution of Chinese Chan Buddhism…to consider all the available evidence from all possible angles, testing hypotheses and evaluating objections." (p. xiii) In which case, one could ask, why should a Zen practitioner read this? McRae gives a simple answer:
