Bodhidharma quotThe Wake Up Sermonquot First Zen Patriarch Zen Buddhism

############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tAEzEtE5K8

Bodhidharma is considered the founder of Zen Buddhism in China and regarded as its first Chinese patriarch. He brought the Buddha's teachings to China from India in 520 AD. While much of his biography may be the stuff of legend and his historicity is still in question, numerous early records speak of him (or someone by the name of Bodhidharma) as a wise and compassionate monk. Whether or not he was ever a living person, the legend of Bodhidharma has made him as real in the Zen tradition as anyone else. • The full text of this teaching can be found here: https://www.awakenedearth.org/source-... • Translated by Red Pine. • _________________________________________ • 🙏 May whatever goodness arises from these readings/offerings be for the benefit of all sentient beings. • ❤️ A sincere thank you to all listeners and donors for your appreciative comments and offerings of generosity in support of this channel and its intention. • Every day I am deeply touched by your warm support and kind messages of gratitude. • Turn on the '🔔' to get notifications for new releases! • _______________________________________ • 🔆 Thank you to everyone who has written to inquire about offering a donation to express appreciation for this channel.
