Tung-shan Liang-chieh
Tung-shan Liang-chieh (Jap., Tōzan Ryōkai; 807–69). Co-founder, with his pupil Tsʾao-shan, of Tsao-tung. He began his temple education when young, and was soon recognized as exceptional, and was sent, eventually, to Yünyen Tʾan-sheng, through whom he acquired power to ‘understand the sermons of inanimate things’, i.e. to hear them silently eloquent of their undifferentiated nature. He became dharma-successor (hassu) of Yün-yen.
