Tao-hsin (Jap., Dōshin; 580–651). Fourth patriarch in the Chʾan/Zen succession through Bodhidharma: he was dharma-successor (hassu) of Seng-tsʾan and master of Hung-jen. He instructed students in Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra, with emphasis on zazen, and, settling on Mount Shuang-feng, gathered many students who formed a settled monastic community, a founding model for later Zen monasteries. His teaching includes the oldest text advocating zazengi, ‘seated meditation’.
