The Teachings Of Hui-Neng

from The Jizo-an Zen Community Podcast · host Sensei Emyo

The Platform Sutra of Hui-Neng, the sixth patriarch of Chinese Zen (chan) is one of the most influential texts of Chan Buddhism. Hui-Neng was an illiterate woodcutter who attained enlightenment, and who went on to demonstrate the depth and clarity of his insight. This 'jungle dog', the once uncultured southerner, Hui-Neng, validates to generations of Zen students and spiritual seekers that awakening is attainable, regardless of education or social standing and is possible in this lifetime.
