	Caodong - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Caodong (Chinese 曹洞宗) is a Chinese Zen Buddhist sect founded by Dongshan Liangjie and his Dharma-heirs in the 9th century.
		Some attribute the name "Caodong" as a union of "Dongshan" and "Caoshan" from one of his Dharma-heirs, Caoshan Benji; however, the "Cao" much more likely came from "Caoxi", the "mountain-name" of Huineng, the Sixth Ancestor of Chan, as Caoshan was of little importance unlike his contemporary and fellow Dharma-heir, Yunju Daoying.
		In 1227 Dogen Zenji took Caodong to Japan as the Soto sect, where it became very popular.

	Dharma Dictionary - Huihu
		This text, known in Japanese as the Sandokai, is an indispensable part of the canon of Soto Zen, and is recited in Soto temples daily.
		The Caodong sect’s use of huihu, as taught by Chan masters still to this day, is most interesting when it is used to describe the experiences one encounters in practicing meditation.
		The great Caodong master Hongzhi, who first articulated the method of silent illumination, said, “When the seeing [of self-nature] is complete, huihu rests.” That is cessation, ultimate liberation, beyond the most blissful event we could hope to attain.
