 | | The origins of Rinzai Zen date back to 500 BC with the birth of Sakyamuni Buddha in north-east India who is respected as the Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. |  | | Several Chinese Buddhist schools then develop and in the 6th century, an Indian monk named Bodhidharma travels to China. |  | | Putting forward the pre-eminence of practising meditation to discover one’s true nature while rejecting mere academic approaches with too much emphasis on Sutra studies, he is regarded as the First Patriarch of Zen in China. |
