宗密 [py] Zong1mi4 [wg] Tsung-mi [ko] Chongmil [ja] シュウミツ Shuumitsu ||| Zongmi (780-841), also commonly referred to by the monastic title of Guifeng 圭峰. Tang dynasty scholar-monk, installed as fifth patriarch of the Huayan schools as well as a patriarch of the Ho-tse Chan lineage. Wrote a number of vitally important essays on the current situation of Buddhism in Tang China, and is one of the most important figures in East Asian Buddhist history in terms of providing modern scholars with a clear analysis of the development of Chan and Huayan and the general intellectual/religious climate of his times. Unlike some of his more radical and cryptic Chan contemporaries, he was a sober-minded and meticulous scholar who wrote extensive critical analyses of the various Chan and scholastic sects of the period, as well as numerous scriptural exegesis. Zongmi was, like many later Korean monks on whom he extended his influence, deeply interested in both the practical and doctrinal aspects of Buddhism, and especially concerned about the means of the harmonization of the views of those who tended toward exclusivity in either direction. Zongmi studied deeply all the major texts of the Chinese Buddhist canon of his time, specializing in those works with Hua-yen, tathaagatagarbha and Chan affinities. He was deeply affected by Huayan thought and is famous for his work in the area of doctrinal classification, i.e., attempting to account of the apparent disparities in the Buddhist doctrines by categorizing them according to their specific aims. Although he conducted other important studies on texts such as the Huayan jing 華嚴經 , Awakening of Faith 起信論, and Diamond Sutra 金剛經, and dealt with such issues as the rapprochement of the three teachings and the relationship of various schools of Ch'an, Zongmi's work on the Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment (Yuanjue jing 圓覺經)was the centerpiece of his scholarly career. His most important work on the sutra was his Yuanjue jing da shou (Great commentary on the Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment 圓覺經大疏). During the process of finishing this work, Tsung-mi wrote a series of abridgments, expansions and digressions on it. Other noted works include the Ren yuan lun (人源論Inquiry into the Origin of Humanity) and the Chanyuan zhuquan jidu (禪源諸詮集都Origins of the Various Chan Teachings). See the works on Zongmi by Peter N. Gregory, which include Tsung-mi and the Sinification of Buddhism and Inquiry into the Origin of Humanity. [Credit] acm(entry) cw(py)
