Egaku or Hui'E [note 4] was a well-connected 9th century Japanese scholar-monk [5]: 46 [note 5] who made frequent trips to Tang China for pilgrimage and bringing back Buddhist teachings to Japan. Egaku had a huge impact on the religious and cultural history of China and Japan.[6]: 1 [note 6] In Japan, he is famous for bringing the first Rinzai Zen monk Gikū[2]: 7605 [note 7] and the works of the Chinese poet Bai Juyi to Japan.[5]: 47–49 In China, he is renowned for his role in establishing a developed pilgrimage site in Putuoshan, one of the four major Buddhist pilgrimage sites in China.[7]: 14 [note 8] [4][note 9]
Life
[edit]Unlike his monastic contemporaries Saichō, Kūkai and Ennin, Egaku did not leave any travel diaries.[8]: 810 [note 10] The information known about him came from numerous Chinese and Japanese sources, and therefore, there are still many unclear points about him,[9][10]: 45 [11]: 140 such as the dates and specific location of his birth and death. [note 1] [3] However, he was a disciple of Saichō and possibly was an acquaintance of Kūkai.[1][5]: 49
Legacy in Japan
[edit]Egaku did not travel to Tang China as part of an official mission from Japan in contrast to some of his monastic contemporaries. However, his travel was on the personal behest of the Empress Dowager Tachibana Kachiko, a devout Buddhist with religious and literary renown,[12]: 348–356 [note 11] who was curious about Zen Buddhism after talking to Kūkai. Egaku after that went on several trips to Tang China, most of them on behalf of the Empress Dowager.[13]: 216
In 841 CE, Egaku went to Tang China on a pilgrimage to Mount Wutai, the bodhimaņḍa of Manjuśri Bodhisattva. From there, he traveled to Hangzhou where he visited and offered gifts from the Empress Dowager to Yanguan Qi'an,[4] a renowned 9th generation Chan Buddhist master descended from Mazu Daoyi.[2]: 7472 [note 12] Egaku then returned to Japan.
In 844 CE, Egaku went again to Tang China. He visited and made religious offerings at Mount Wutai and Linchi Monastery;[6]: 2 [note 13] the Empress Dowager personally made embroidered monastic robes and religious banners for this purpose.[14]: 269 [15]: 109–112 [note 14] On this trip, Egaku witnessed and personally experienced the effect of Emperor Wuzong's Huichang persecution, which delayed his return to Japan.[5]: 48 [note 15] With the ascension of Emperor Xuanzong in 846 CE, the abuse ended, and Egaku returned with Yanguan Qi'an's chief disciple Gikū who became the first Zen master in Japan.[2]: 7010 [note 16]
Aristocratic Heian society enthusiastically received Gikū's arrival in Japan as he was the first Zen monk from China who exclusively taught Zen Buddhism in Japan. [note 17] [11]: 130 [note 18] Tachibana Kachiko first housed him in the western wing of Tō-ji Temple; then moved him to Danrin Temple once it became completed.[14]: 269 [note 19] Gikū taught Zen Buddhism for several years there and then returned to Tang China.[11]: 132–133 [note 20][16]: 109 [note 21][note 22]
Also in 846/847 CE, Egaku brought his hand-copied manuscript of the "Collected Works of Bai Juyi" to Japan.[5]: 47–49 The poems of the famous Chinese poet Bai Juyi were already introduced earlier into Japan. [note 23] However, Egaku's copy was a complete early copy and had a significant influence on subsequent Japanese Sinitic poetry [12]: 18 and native literature such as The Tale of Genji and The Pillow Book.[12]: 24–25

The Kanazawa edition is a copy of Egaku's original document. Kept initially at the Kanazawa library founded in the Kamakura period, the Kanazawa edition is no longer a complete copy.[17] The Kanazawa edition preserves the original form of the "Collected Works of Bai Juyi" as revised by Bai Juyi himself. This edition also has Egaku's annotated notes, which describe the historical circumstances facing Egaku when he was copying the text.
On possibly his last trip to Tang China (863 CE), Egaku accompanied the ex-crown prince turned Buddhist monk Takaoka Shinnō (
Egaku also had an "agate-colored stele" made on his behalf in Suzhou's Kaiyuan Monastery by the Chinese Zen monk Qieyuan, entitled "Record of the Nation of Japan’s First Zen School."[5][note 25] This agate stele once stood in Heian-kyō's Rashōmon, and Tōdai-ji once preserved four large fragments of this stele. The significance of this agate stele is that it was one of the few contemporaneous records describing Egaku's recruitment of Gikū as the first Zen monk to Japan. It was one of the sources used by Kokan Shiren to write the Egaku article found in Japan's earliest Buddhist history, the Genkō Shakusho.
Legacy in China

In 863 Egaku went again on a pilgrimage to Mount Wutai. This time, he saw a wooden statue of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva with an elegant and refined appearance and an ever-joyful face while on a trip to a temple located in the central peak of Mount Wutai.[10]: 40 [note 26] Egaku wished to take this statue back to Japan and asked for the monks’ permission. The monks acquiesced to his request. He brought the statue to Ningbo's Kaiyuan Monastery on a palanquin, located the merchant Zhang Youxing's ship, and prepared to leave for Japan. However, the statue became extremely heavy, and he was unable to bring it onto the ship. Egaku succeeded in bringing the statue aboard the ship only with the combined efforts of numerous merchants from Silla. The boat then set sailed and approached the waters near Putuoshan where huge angry waves and violent winds impeded its progress. The ship went aground on Silla Reef [10]: 40 [note 27] and then it drifted to the Cave of Tidal Sounds. Egaku that evening had a dream where he saw a foreign monk who told him, "If you place me on this mountain, I will command the winds to send you on your way."[7]: 60 [note 28] Egaku told everyone aboard of his dream, and everyone was astonished. Still, they came ashore and built a straw hut to place the statue of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva. After making farewell obeisance to the statue, they boarded the ship and left for Japan. An inhabitant of Putuoshan surname Zhang witnessed these events and enshrined the statue in his house for worship. After his death, they built the first permanent shrine to Guanyin Bodhisattva on Putuoshan in 916 CE, named "Unwilling to Leave Guanyin Temple."[4][7]: 13, 60–61 [19][20]: 543–544 Later generations of worshipers honored Egaku as the founder of the Avalokiteśvara bodhimanda on Putuoshan. [note 9] [13]: 81–83 [note 29] Putuoshan now has an "Master Egaku Commemorative Hall" with a shrine dedicated to Egaku and thirty-three manifestations of Avalokitesvara located at Xifang Jingyuan, the temple next to Guanyin Leaps[7]: 61
Modern Discoveries
[edit]Archaeologists discovered a stone dharani pillar decorated with three entwining dragons and engraved with the text of the Uṣṇīṣa Vijaya Dhāraṇī Sūtra in Kyoto's Anshō-ji Temple in 1953.[6]: 2 [15]: 115–116 Egaku brought this column back to Japan either in 841 or 842 CE. One can see the column on display at the Kyoto National Museum.
Movies
[edit]In the acclaimed 2013 movie Avalokitesvara, a loose adaptation of the Putuoshan genesis story, Nagaizumi Hideo starred as Egaku.
Notes
[edit]- ^ a b Saichō died in 822 CE; as Egaku was his disciple, he was born before 822 CE
- ^ Foguangshan p 7605
慧 萼 日本 臨濟宗 僧 。Hui'E, a Japanese Rinzai sect monk. - ^ Putuoshan 于是,
留 下 弟子 仁 济、顺昌两人,白 己 朝礼 天台山 ...Egaku went by himself on a pilgrimage to Mount Tiantai [home to the Chinese Tiantai sect, the ancestral home of the Japanese Tendai sect] and left behind his two disciples Jinsai and Junshō...] - ^ Egaku or Hui'E did not have a standardized Chinese character name. However, all of these names were either Chinese or Japanese homonyms respectively.[1]
- ^ Chen 于是
命 慧 萼 到 齐安处留学 ,可 以看出 慧 萼 还不是 一个普通的入唐求法僧人 ,其一举一动都代表着皇族的意思 ,与 日本 王室 有 着 很深的 渊源 。[Tachibana Kachiko (Empress Dowager)] commanded Hui'E to find Yanguan Qi'an so that he could learn Zen from him. Hui'E was not an ordinary monk traveling to Tang China at liberty to learn as he wished. For every movement he made, was on behalf of the [Japanese] royal house, and he had a deep relationship with them. - ^ Tanaka 9
世紀 に日 唐 を頻繁 に往来 し、日 中 の宗教 ・文化 に多大 の影響 を与 えた日本 僧 慧 萼 について…Regarding Egaku who frequently traveled to and from Japan and China and who had a huge impact on the religion and culture of Japan and China - ^ Foguangshan p.7605
後 參 謁杭州 靈 池寺 齊 安 國師 ,轉 達 太 后 之 旨 ,延 請義空 禪師 赴日弘 揚 禪 法 ,自 此日本 始 傳 臨濟宗 。Later Egaku visited the national preceptor Yanguan Qi'an at Hangzhou's Lingchi Monastery and communicated the wishes of the Empress Dowager (for a Zen monk). Yikong [Gikū in Japanese] was then dispatched to Japan to propagate the Zen teachings. The Japanese Rinzai sect began in this manner. - ^ Wang
据 明 崇 祯年间高僧 木 陈道忞所撰 《普 陀山梵音庵 释迦文 佛舍利 塔 碑 》记载:…去 明 州 薄 海 五 百 里 外 ,复有山 曰补怛洛迦者,则普门大士 化 亦 所 显,以佛菩萨慈悲 姻缘故 ,故 自 晋 之 大 康 ,…说明早 在 东晋南北 朝 ,已 有 信徒 们纷纷来山 朝拜 。According to the disciple of Tiantong Temple's Miyun, the Chinese Linji sect monk and then later the Hongjue National Preceptor, Muchen Daowen's (1596-1674) "Putuoshan Brahma Monastery Sarira Pagoda of Shakyamuni Buddha Stele" carved during the Chong Zhen regnal era (1622-1644), it is recorded: …Five hundred li from Mingzhou (today’s Ningbo), there is a mountain called Potalaka, this is where the Mahāsattva of Potalaka manifests, due to the karmic affinities of the Buddha and Bodhisattva's Great Compassion, starting from the Jin Dynasty Tai Kang regnal period… This quote explains that as early as the Eastern Jin dynasty period and the Northern and Southern Dynasties period, there were already worshipers coming one after another to Putuoshan for pilgrimage. - ^ a b Putuoshan
后 人 尊称 慧 锷为普 陀山佛教 开山祖 师。Later generations respectfully named Hui'E as the founder of Putuoshan. - ^ Ennin p 810 [Although Egaku did not write any travel diary, he is mentioned in Ennin's Diary...] 841 CE 9th Day of the 7th Moon I heard that the Japanese monk Egaku and his disciples, three persons in all, had arrived at Mt. Wu-t'ai. The Master had vowed, in order to seek his alms in all directions, he would return to his homeland, but he is having his two disciples stay at Mt. Wu-t'ai.

后 為 人 寬和 風 容 絶 異 手 過 於膝髪 委 於地観 者 皆 驚 .) argues, that Kachiko’s contemporaries certainly associated her with Hokkeji Temple, and especially with the figure of the Eleven-Faced Avalokitesvara, who also had hands reaching to her knees. - ^ Foguangshan p 7472
宣 宗 敕諡「悟空 大師 」之 號 ,並 以御詩 追悼 。[Yanguan Qi'an died in 842 CE in his 90s before the ascension of Emperor Tang Xuānzong.] Emperor Xuānzong awards Yanguan Qi'an, the title "Wukong National Preceptor" and mourned him with imperial poetry. He was a distant member of the Tang royal family surnamed Li. - ^ Hangzhou's Linchi Monastery was located in Yanguan, 50 kilometers away from Hangzhou and was later bestowed the name An'guo Monastery by Emperor Xuānzong. The Monastery was taken down in 1978.
- ^ Katsūra Egaku gave some of the offerings to shrines dedicated to manifestations of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva.
- ^ Chen With the onset of the Huichang persecution, Hui'E went into hiding in Suzhou's Baisheren Chan Monastery under the false identity of a Buddhist layperson named Kongwu. He tried to leave on a ship from Chuzhou, but they blocked all ships from leaving. The persecution forced him to hide for over a year until the ascension of Emperor Xuānzong.
- ^ Foguangshan 7010
與 道 昉等東 渡 日本 --Gikū was accompanied by Dōhō and others on his trip east to Japan. - ^ Although Japan had earlier Zen masters who either came or returned to Japan, such as Dōshō and Dōsen, they also taught the teachings of other sects. As such, Gikū is the first exclusively Zen master from the Southern School to reside in the new capital of Heian-kyō.
- ^ Ōtsuki また
橘 嘉 智子 だけでなく皇帝 (仁明天皇 )や中 散大 夫 藤 公 兄弟 といった官僚 の帰依 も厚 かったことが知 られる。Records indicate that not only Tachibana Kachiko but the Emperor Ninmyō and the bureaucrat Chūsan Daifu Fujiwara brothers were sincere and also took refuge with Gikū. - ^ Groner Danrin Temple was also a nunnery for nuns who observed the bhikkuni precepts. Tachibana Kachiko herself became a nun once her Emperor son Ninmyō became sick and lived at Danrin Temple until her death.

師 蛮は,義 空 伝 の賛 において,義 空 渡来 後 「...,実 悟 せし者 ,橘 后 一 人 のみ,空 公 ,時 未 だ熟 せざるを知 り,之 を辞 して帰 唐 す」と記 し...Mangen Shiban (1626-1710), a Japanese Rinzai Zen scholar-monk who wrote two Buddhist histories the "Enpō Record of the Transmission of the Lamp" and the "Honchō Records of the High Priest" said in his praises of the Record of Gikū, after Gikū arrived in Japan, "...Tachibana Kachiko was the only person who truly understood [Zen]. Gikū thought the time was not ripe for Zen. Therefore, he resigned and then returned to Tang China...", ...田中 史生 氏 によると滞在 期間 は十 年 にも満 たなかった可能 性 が高 く,856(唐 ・大中 10,日本 ・斉 衡 3 )年 前後 までの間 と推定 されている。According to Tanaka Fumio, it is very likely Gikū only stayed in Japan for less than ten years. He theorizes its highly likely that Gikū stayed only until sometime around 856 CE. - ^ Hibino こ,に
当時 の禅 の受容 のあり方 を知 ることができる。…呪術 的 に受 け入 れられたのであった。斯様 に歪曲 されて受容 された禅 は、....禅 そのものを理会 することもできず――従 って必要 ともしない状態 の中 にあって、その後 に継承 ・発展 するべくもなかった... From this, we know Heian society accepted Zen in the form of mantra ceremonies. This type of convoluted acceptance made society unable to understand Zen itself, and since [the distinctive aspects unique to Zen] was unneeded then, [Zen] was unable to be passed down and develop. - ^ Dōshō, Dōsen, Gikū and later Kakua attempted to introduce Zen into Japan. All failed in their attempts. It would take four hundred more years after Giku before Zen firmly established itself in Japan in the 13th century. cf. Eisai, Dogen and Nanpo Shōmyō.
- ^ Although there were other Japanese who had already introduced Bai Juyi's Poetry into Japan such as Ennin's 6 scroll copy of the "Collected Works of Bai Juyi" in 839 and Fujiwara no Okamori's (808-851 CE) copy of "Yuan Bai Shi Ji" or "Selection of Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi's Poetry" in 838 CE, both were incomplete.
- ^ Takaoka Shinno left with three followers in 865 CE by ship from Guangzhou destination India. Afterward, people in Tang China lost contact with him. Sixteen years later in 881 CE, Chūkan, a Japanese scholar-monk visiting Tang China reported that Takaoka Shinnō had died in Singapore. Some other sources mentioned that a tiger killed Takaoka Shinnō. Recently an imperial pagoda was erected in Johor Bahru's Japanese cemetery.

慧 萼 还专门请苏州开元寺 高僧 契 元 制作 了 一块题为枟日本国首传禅宗记枠的玛瑙石碑立在罗城门侧 。Hui'E asked the senior monk of Suzhou's Kaiyuan Monastery Qieyuan, to compose an agate(-colored) stele entitled "Record of the Nation of Japan's First Zen School." The stele was later placed to the side of Heian-kyō's Rashōmon Gate. - ^ Park
日本国 僧 惠 锷诣五台山 敬礼 。至 中台 精舍 ,见观音 貌像端 雅 ,喜 生 颜间,乃就恳求愿 迎 归其国 ,寺 众从之 。The Japanese monk Hui'E went on a pilgrimage on Mount Wutai. He arrived at a temple on the Central Peak. (Mount Wutai has five mountain peaks - the Central peak is one of them) He stood in awe of a statue of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva with an elegant and refined appearance and with an ever-joyful face. Moreover, he then beseeches [the monks of Mount Wutai] to allow him to take it back to Japan after which the monks agreed. - ^ Park

胡 僧 就是菩萨化身 the foreign monk is a manifestation of [Avalokiteśvara] Bodhisattva. - ^ Binghenheimer Wang Liansheng draws attention to the fact that some thirteenth century sources cite the Tang poet and official Wei Xuan 韋絢 (801-866) as a source for the association of Mount Putuo with Egaku. According to the Baoqing Siming Zhi (1226), Wei Xuan had left a record concerning the events of Egaku’s return voyage, which must be considered contemporary. Unfortunately, Wei Xuan's text is now lost, but I agree with Wang Liansheng that this reference in the Baoqing Siming Zhi makes it likely that Egaku was indeed involved in the founding of Mount Putuo. In all likelihood his visit took place in 859 or 863 CE.
