हुइनेंग
हर किसी में पहले से बुद्ध-स्वभाव है, इसलिए बोध धीमे शोधन से नहीं बल्कि अचानक आता है, जब आप अपना सच्चा स्वभाव देख लेते हैं।

मत
The teaching ascribed to Huineng holds that Buddha-nature, our original nature, is pure and present in everyone. Awakening means seeing this nature directly, and it comes suddenly, not through gradually polishing the mind. Shenxiu had likened the mind to a mirror to be kept free of dust; Huineng’s verse replies that Buddha-nature is always pure – so where could dust alight? Practice centres on no-thought (wunian): not suppressing thoughts but not clinging to them; meditation and wisdom are one. Historians see the sudden–gradual polemic largely as the work of Shenhui, who claimed to be his disciple. All later Chan and Zen lineages, Dōgen’s included, trace themselves to Huineng.
जीवन और संदर्भ
Nearly all we know of Huineng’s life comes from the Platform Sutra and later Chan histories, shaped by legend. In their account he was born in 638 in the far south, an illiterate firewood seller who joined the Fifth Patriarch Hongren as a temple labourer. After a verse contest with the monk Shenxiu he secretly received the robe of succession and later taught at Caoxi until his death in 713.
