Chinese Chan
中国的禅
In China,Chan developed from Bodhidharma,who is said to have come from southern India and introduced Buddhism here since 520. Therefore Bodhidharma has been regarded as China's first Chan master, though from Mahakasyapa's line he should be counted as the 28th. However, Chan Buddhism was divided into two rival schools, a southern school led by Hui Neng and a northern school led by Shen Xiu.
在中国,禅起源于达摩祖师,他来自印度南部和520年把佛教引进中国。因此,达摩一直被视为中国第一个禅师尽管从大迦叶算起他应该拍在第28位。然而,禅宗分为两个敌对学校,领导江南学校的慧能和领导北部学校的神秀。
