Chinese Buddhism like Bright Hill Chan (Zen) Monastery
The first council was appointed by Lord Buddha at North India. Later move to South India and end up Buddhist Central move to China. The Second Buddhist Council was lead by Mahayana Tibet Kingdom. The Third Buddhist Council was lead by Asoka Kingdom.
Zen (Chan) meditation
Central to Zen-practice is dhyana or meditation. The Zen tradition holds that in meditation practice, notions of doctrine and teachings necessitate the creation of various notions and appearances (Skt. saṃjñā; Ch. 相, xiāng) that obscure the transcendent wisdom of each being's Buddha-nature. This process of rediscovery goes under various terms such as "introspection", "a backward step", "turning-about" or "turning the eye inward".
At House Buddhist daily meditation were at the morning, afternoon, evening and night. Each time ten minutes.
The First Buddhist Council had been ended by the Buddha East Land Six Patriarch Chan Master Sik Hui Neng.
Why you cry? You do not know where to go. I know about Nirvana. So I told you I am going. Only Sik Shen Hui know where to go. So he does not cry. He had achieved the purified level. He are no longer at between kind and evil level. This was the last word from Sik Hui Neng. Sit and Meditate.
Bring your true self. When you are meditating. Someone had slap you. If you do not feel pain. You are a stone. If you are feeling pain. You cannot purify. Full poison of Hate, Anger so on. By nature. It is two side of view. To prevent suffering. You will correct your fault. You will forgive others and forget it.
This is The First Buddhist Council teaching from Chinese Chan Buddhism.
