Senses:
Circumstances of the Transmission of Buddhism through Three Countries; 3 fasc. A history of Buddhism completed in 1311 by the Kegon 華嚴宗 scholar-monk Gyōnen 凝然 of the Tōdaiji 東大寺. An account of how Buddhism was transmitted to China and Japan from India. Gyōnen records the existence of
'thirteen schools'
in China, including Abhidharma 毘曇, Satyasiddhi 成實, Vinaya 戒律, Sanlun (Madhyamaka) 三論, Nirvana Sutra 涅槃, Dilun 地論, Pure Land 淨土, Chan 禪, Mahāyānasaṃgraha 攝論, Tiantai 天台, Huayan 華嚴, Faxiang (Yogâcāra) 法相 and Zhenyan (Esoteric Buddhism) 眞言. This is an important document for understanding East Asian Buddhist history, although there is a glaring omission of Korea, despite the fact that it had to have been clearly known to Gyōnen that the Nara schools were directly transmitted to Japan from the Silla. Abbreviated as 傳通緣起. [Charles Muller; source(s): Ui, Iwanami, JEBD, FGD]
