Subject: Chan Master Hsu Yun & Calif. prairie dog >From Wiki, re: (Hsu Yun, Guru of Chan Master Hsuan Hua and grand-Guru of Chan Master Sheng Yen): " Though Chán is less well known in the West compared to Japanese Zen, the teachings of Hsu Yun have persisted within Asia, and he is still a major figure of Pure Land Buddhism in East Asia. Outside of China, the influence of his teachings is strongest in Southeast Asia, particularly in Vietnam and Myanmar, as well as the Americas, where his teachings were transmitted through well known monastic students such as Venerable Hsuan Hua and Venerable Jy Din Shakya and Venerable Fo Yuan. ________________________________ Chan Master Sheng Yen, granddisciple of Hsu Yun; http://www.chancenter.org/ ________________________________ California prairie dog.
