INTRODUCTION This is an in depth commentary on the forty Transmission Gathas of the Patriarchs of Ch’an by a Western Yogi. The author sets out to ascertain what is was that the ancient Indian and Chinese sages transmitted. He attempts to intuit and explain how it was done, and how the recipients of the transmission were prepared for the thunderbolt of sudden enlightenment. The scriptures state that what was transmitted was the Mind, or Mind-Dharma, but that this was no ordinary mind. It was pure Mind, Mind itself, stripped to the utmost nakedness or clearness. This mind was said to be the Buddha, or the Wisdom of SupremeEnlightenment. The Patriarch Bodhidharma says in his famous dialougue with Emperor Wu “ The Dharma is like an empty space, as vast as the cosmos, with nothing holy therein. “ (1) Although the author has a certain degree of learning in the scriptures and sacred texts of ancient India, China, Tibet, Persia, Greece, and Egypt, he is a practicing Yogi and by no means a scholar, or a Linguist. Most of his commentary is based on his inner experiences, which result from his practice of advanced Yoga, But not on academia or book learning. Narayana expounds in his commentary pure intuitions, arising from an innerrealization, attained by means of Yoga and by the grace of God. His commentary is in no capacity scholarly or linguistic analysis, nor is it an interpretation of theological axioms or religious dogma. (The Yogi never wants any of his work turned into religious dogma or a religion of any kind.)

This compilation of Buddhist biographies, teaching and transmission stories of Indian and Chinese Chan (Japanese ‘Zen’) masters from antiquity up to about the year 1008 CE is the first mature fruit of an already thousand year-long spiritual marriage between two great world cultures with quite different ways of viewing the world. The fertilisation of Chinese spirituality by Indian Buddhism fructified the whole of Asian culture. The message of this work, that Chan practice can enable a free participation in life’s open-ended play, seems as necessary to our own time as it was to the restless times of 11th century Song China. This is the fifth volume of a full translation of this work in thirty books. Records of the Transmission of the Lamp translated by randolph s. whitfield jingde chuandeng lu by daoyuan

The Linji lu, or Record of Linji, ranks among the most famous and influential texts of the Chan and Zen traditions. Ostensibly containing the teachings of the Tang dynasty figure Linji Yixuan, the text has generally been accepted at face value, as reliable records of the teachings of this historical figure. In this book, Albert Welter offers the first systematic study of the Linji lu in a western language. Welter places the Linji lu in its historical context, showing how the text was manipulated over time by the Linji faction. Rather than recording the teachings of the illustrious patriarch of legend, the text reflects the motivations of Linji-faction descendants in the Song dynasty (960–1279). The story of the Linji lu is not simply the story of one heroic figure, Linji Yixuan, but the story of an entire movement that sought validation through retrospective image making. The success of this effort is seen in Chan's rise to prominence. Drawing on the findings of Japanese scholars, Welter moves beyond the minutiae of textual analysis to place the development of Linji lu within the broader forces shaping the development of the Chinese Records of Sayings literary genre as a whole.

This volume includes The Recorded Sayings of Linji, Wumen's Gate, and The Faith-Mind Maxim. The Recorded Sayings of Linji is one of the seminal books of Zen. The great Zen teacher Linji lived and worked in ninth century China, but his teachings continued to guide and influence people for centuries afterward, and he was considered the grand ancestor of major streams of Zen in China, Korea, Vietnam, and Japan. The direct, incisive teachings preserved in his recorded sayings have shown a perennial power to challenge and stimulate would-be seekers of the truth. He strips away the supernatural aura of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and refers the symbolism of the Buddhist scriptures to human processes, to actual and potential psychological transformations involving individuals and social groups. He analyzes the relationship of language to reality and conditioning to perception and motivation in ways that both prefigure and surpass "modern" discussions on these points. Whether or not they are already familiar with Zen Buddhism, modern readers can read Linji's sayings as a direct demonstration of its viewpoint and call. Wu Men's Gate is a classic collection of forty-eight Zen "public cases" accompanied by comments and verses, presented as teaching materials within the Zen tradition. Zen students would focus their attention on these cases and meditate via their intricate patterns of meaning. By interrupting and reshaping patterns of thought, these classic Zen cases were intended as tools to refine minds and open them to wider perspectives on reality. The Faith-Mind Maxim is a short, 36 stanza poem written by Seng-can. It encompasses the thought of Early Buddhism and later developments such as the Voidness School, the representation-only School, and the Flower Garland School. It expressly extols the essence of the Mahayana and, above all, the One Vehicle ideal. It clarifies unique Zen attitudes, such as not depending on words by being beyond all discriminations and conventions, directly pointing to the mind (i.e. the One Mind), seeing one's own nature by returning to the root, and becoming a Buddha. The Faith-Mind Maximmay be regarded as the first revolutionary work in the Zen tradition or in Chinese Buddhism.
