McRae briefly notes that already in 1905, Nukariya Kaiten had "argue[d] from quite a number of perspectives that [X26, X27] is apocryphal." This text is significant because it is the basis for the story that the Buddha transmitted the Dharma to Mahākāśyapa by holding up a flower, at which Mahākāśyapa signalled his understanding by smiling, 拈花微笑. McRae is here summarising Nukariya's Zengaku hihanron 禪學批判論 (Tokyo: Komeisha, 1905). Entry author: Michael Radich |

"Although we do not know when the Da fantianwang wenfo jueyi jing was written, we can tell, that the story begins appearing in Chan literature sometime between the years 1036 and 1064..." "Ono Genmyō 小野玄妙, Bussho kaisetsu daijiten 仏書解説大辞典, 7:495d–96a (article by Ōkubo Kenzui 大久保堅瑞), notes that Nukariya Kaiten 忽滑谷快天, Zengaku shisōshi 禅学思想史, 1: 293–94, discusses the account and introduces much of the textual information given here in greater detail. There is also a substantial entry, giving a much fuller account than that here, in the Mochizuki Bukkyō daijiten 5:4155b-56a." Entry author: Michael Radich |
