Description

Taishō 2003

Volume 48

The Blue Cliff Record, also referred to as The Blue Cliff Collection, consists of 100 gongan (Jp. kōan) selected by Zhong-xian from the 1700 gongan of The Transmission of the Lamp (Taishō No. 2076). Zhongxian has added explanatory verses to each of the gongan, and later the comments of Keqin were appended. In the Linji (Jp. Rinzai) School this work is held in extremely high regard as a model text for instruction in the practice of Chan/Zen.
