Bret W. Davis
Originally produced by The Great Courses in 2020.
Professor Davis continues to discuss Zen's understanding of the Buddha. You'll look more closely at the manner in which the term "Buddha" is used in Zen, ending with perhaps the most shocking statement in any religious tradition, namely Zen master Linji's admonition, "If you encounter the Buddha, kill the Buddha!" Examine the idea that Zen is all about freeing ourselves from our fixations.
