Sentences with HAKUIN (5)
The man who brought Zen out of its slumber and restored its vigor was the mystic Hakuin (1685-1768), who revived the _koan _school of Rinzai and produced the most famous _koan_ of all times: "You know the sound of two hands clapping; what is the sound of one hand clapping?" Hakuin gave a new, mystical dimension to the Rinzai school of Zen, even as Hui-neng created nonintellectual Chinese Ch'an Buddhism out of the founding ideas of Bodhidharma.
