Baizhang

Baizhang Huaihai (Chinese: 百丈懷海; pinyin: Bǎizhng Huihi; Wade-Giles: Pai-chang Huai-hai; Japanese: Hyakujo Ekai) (720-814) was a Chinese Zen master during the Tang Dynasty. He was a dharma heir of Mazu Daoyi (Wade-Giles: Ma-tsu Tao-i). Baizhang's students included: Huangbo and Lingyu. Baizhang stablished an early set of rules for Chan (Chinese Zen) monastic discipline, the Pure Rules of Huai Hai, which are used today in many Zen monasteries. Baizhang is remembered for the aphorism: "A day without work is a day without food." His teachings and sayings have been translated by Thomas Cleary in Sayings and Doings of Pai-Chang (1962) and by John Blofeld in The Zen Teaching of Instantaneous Awakening (1987).
