Alternate Title: 筠州黄蘗山斷際禪師傳心法要

Alternate Title: Yunzhou Huangbo shan Duanji chan shi chuan xin fa yao

Summary: "筠州黃檗山斷際禪師傳法心要" by Huangbo is a philosophical treatise on Zen Buddhism written during the Tang Dynasty. The work expounds on the core concept of "one mind is Buddha," emphasizing the notion that both Buddhas and all sentient beings share a singular essence of mind. It critiques the tendency of practitioners to seek enlightenment externally rather than recognizing their inherent Buddha nature within. At the start of the text, the teachings of Master Huangbo emphasize the nature of the mind, asserting that it is timeless, formless, and fundamental to understanding one's true self. The text critiques the misguided practices of those who focus on external forms and rituals in their pursuit of enlightenment, underscoring that genuine insight comes from within. Through a series of dialogues, Huangbo challenges students to discard attachments and preconceived notions about practice, guiding them to a direct understanding of their minds as Buddha itself. This opening sets the stage for further exploration of Zen teachings that aim to unveil the profound simplicity of awareness and being. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
