Chinese-born translator of Chinese
Buddhist Texts, writer of Ch’an Buddhism.
Born in Canton in 1898 as Lu Kuan Yu.
His first Master was Hutuktu of Sikang, an enlightened Great
Lama of both Kagyu and Gelug lineages. His second Master was the
Venerable Ch'an Master Hsu Yun, the best-known modern Ch'an
Master, who urges him to translate Chinese Buddhist texts.
Dedicated the last 20 years of his life, from 1956, to this
cause. First visited Europe in 1930s and met Christmas Humphreys
in 1935.
Throughout his life Lu K'uan Yu contributed to Buddhist
publications in India, London, Paris, and New York, for he
passionately devoted his life to presenting Chinese Buddhist
texts to Westerners because he wanted to preserve Buddhism. |
