This chapter focuses on the aftermath of the second controversy after 1654 in China and Japan. In China, some Linji monks defended Feiyin and the Caodong monks opposed them. The center of controversy was the publication of Wudeng quanshu (Complete book about the five Chan schools), which is based on Feiyin's theory about the two Daowus. In addition, because Feiyin's disciple Yinyuan Longqi published Feiyin's Wudeng yantong in Japan, this book also influenced Japanese Buddhism.Less

This chapter describes the rise of Chan Buddhism by focusing on the Linji and Caodong schools and their leaders such as Miyun Yuanwu, Hanyue Fazang, Muchen Daomin, Feiyin Tongrong, Zhanran Yuancheng, Wuming Huijing, Yinyuan Longgi, Shilian Dashan, and Fang Yizhi. It shows that these prominent figures first rose under the patronage of the literati, and later their lineage spread all over China in the late Ming and early Qing. During the Ming‐Qing transition, many literati became monks.Less
