12. TUNG-SHAN AND TSAO-SHAN: FOUNDERS OF SOTO ZEN
1.Philip Yampolsky, in Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch, alleges that Hsing-ssu was resurrected from anonymity because s.h.i.+h-t'ou (700- 90) was in need of a connection to the Sixth Patriarch. The mysterious master Hsing-ssu comes into prominence well over a hundred years after his death; his actual life was not chronicled by any of his contemporaries. Neither, for that matter, was the life of his pupil s.h.i.+h-t'ou, although the latter left a heritage of disciples and a burgeoning movement to perpetuate his memory.
2.Ibid., p. 55.
3.The stories attached to s.h.i.+h-t'ou are varied and questioned by most authorities. For example, there is the story that he was enlightened by reading Seng-chau's Chao-Jun (The Book of Chao) but that his philosophy came from Lao Tzu.

19.When R. H. Blyth translates this poem in Zen and Zen Cla.s.sics, Vol.
2, called the Hokyozammai in j.a.panese, he includes a grand dose of skepticism concerning its real authors.h.i.+p, since he believes the poem unworthy of the master (p. 152).
