Introduction
All Zen (Chinese, "Chan") schools in the world today are derived from the Buddhist masters of ancient China displayed on this "map." At the top is Bodhidharma, the twenty-
eighth master of the traditional lineage descending from Shakyamuni, the historical Buddha. Remembered as the "First Ancestor" of China, Bodhidharma transmitted Zen from India
around the late fifth century C.E. Below Bodhidharma are his spiritual descendants, who were in turn the disciples and masters of later Zen generations.

The "Sixth Ancestor," Dajian Huineng (I6), is the most famous of the ancient Chinese Zen masters. Five traditionally prominent Zen schools, or "houses," trace their historical

line through Huineng and his two students, Nanyue Huairang and Qingyuan Xingsi. These five houses are named, in chronological order, the Guiyang, Linji, Caodong, Yunmen, and
Fayan schools. During the eleventh century the Linji school divided into the prominent Huanglong and Yangqi branches. Dajian Huineng and his lineage are know as the
"Southern" school of Zen. But besides this historically dominant school and its five houses, other Zen schools also existed. Four of them–the Oxhead, Northern, Sichuan, and Heze
schools–are represented on this map with their founders.

Individual boxes on the map list, from top to bottom, each ancestor's name as it is written in Chinese pinyin transliteration, Chinese Wade-Giles transliteration, Chinese charac-
ters, and Japanese romaji transliteration, respectively. Birth and death dates are then indicated when known. Quotation marks indicate alternative names. Chinese names are omit-
ted for individuals from Korea and Japan. Disciples of one teacher are arranged with the more senior student on the left.
The index lists the names of individuals alphabetically according to their pinyin spellings. The "Location" column displays each ancestor's position on the map. The chapter (or

By tradition, the Indian Zen master Vinitaruci, a disciple of the third Chinese ancestor Jianzhi Sengsan (I3), established the first Zen school in Vietnam in 580 C.E. In 820 the
Bodhidharma Chinese master Wu Yantong, a disciple of Baizhang Huaihai (A9), went to Vietnam and started the prominent Vo-Ngon-Thong Zen school. The Chinese monk Cao Tang, a disciple of
The Traditional First Zen Ancestor in the Yunmen lineage master Xuedou Chongxian (H16), established the Vietnamese Thao-Duong Zen school in the late eleventh century. Although these schools passed out of exis-
China, 28th in the Lineage Jianzhi Sengcan tence, Zen gained new life in Vietnam when the Nguyen Thieu and Lieu-Quan schools, branches of the Linji/Yangqi lineage, were established there in the seventeenth and eighteenth
Descending from Shakyamuni Buddha Chien-chih Sêng-ts’an centuries. These two schools have continued to modern times.
Beginning with the fourth Chinese ancestor, Dayi Daoxin, many Chinese Zen masters had Korean disciples. In particular, some Chinese masters who studied under the great 3
Mazu Daoyi (A8) had Korean students. Several of these individuals returned home as confirmed Zen masters to help create the "Nine Sôn (Zen) Mountains," nine famous schools of
Kanchi Sôsan Korean Zen. The king of Korea once dispatched thirty-six monks from his kingdom to study under the Chinese Fayan master Yongming Yanshou (O17), each of them receiving dhar-
d. 606
ma transmission. The recorded teachings of the Chinese Linji/Yangqi teacher Dahui Zonggao (A22) exerted great influence on Pojo Chinul (1158-1210), the famous Korean master
who revitalized Zen in that country. Perhaps most significantly, the Chinese Zen master Shiwu confirmed the enlightenment of the Korean master Taegu Pou (C23), passing to him
dharma transmission of the Linji/Yangqi lineage. Taegu Pou then returned to Korea and unified the "Nine Mountains" into the Chogye order, thereafter the main Korean Zen school
down to the present day.
Dayi Daoxin Several individuals carried Zen to Japan during its early history. The first was the monk Dôshô (628-670), who introduced Zen to Japan after studying under Huiman, a second
Ta-i Tao-hsin generation Chinese disciple of Dazu Huike (I2). Myôan Eisai (A23) established Rinzai Zen in Japan after receiving dharma transmission from the Chinese Linji/Huanglong master
Xuan Huaichang. Soon thereafter, Eihei Dôgen (E24) traveled to China and received transmission from the Caodong master Tiantong Rujing. Dôgen is regarded as the founder of 4
Sôtô Zen in Japan. The Yangqi branch of the Linji school took root in Japan with the Japanese master Nampo Jômyô (B23), a disciple of the Chinese master Xutang Zhiyu. Eighteen

generations after Jômyô, this line reached Hakuin Ekaku, who revitalized the Japanese Rinzai school during the eighteenth century.
