The primary foundation of Buddhist philosophy is, of course, Buddha. This takes us away from Dogen’s 13 |  | | There was controversy on the Indian subcontinent between analytical and metaphysical schools early on, which later become manifested in China as the Caodong and Lin-chi schools of Chan, the former being the lineage that Dogen would later bring to Japan (Kalupahana 228-229). |  | | This practice transcends the mere act of meditation into all aspects of daily life in a way that saturates every action and thought, a process that Dogen called gyoji, or “ceaseless practice” (Zelinski 2). |

 | | Chinese Chan employs a series of meditation methods and these two schools are especially known by the methods that they developed and cultivated. |  | | Bodhidharma's teaching had been transmitted in China from teacher to disciple through five generations before the time of the renowned Sixth Patriarch, Hui-neng (638-713), whose numerous disciples founded various branches that evolved into five Chan schools. |  | | The Caodong school uses the method of mo-chao or silent illumination, while the Linji school uses kungan or huato. |

 | | While the essence of their practice is the same as that of all other schools of Buddhism, i.e., to reach complete enlightenment, each of the different Houses supposedly developed its own distinct style of teaching. |  | | Zen became very popular and by the end of the tenth century, the Five Houses of Zen had been formed. |  | | To this day, all forms of Zen practice in the world trace their root to Master HuiNeng. |
