Pháp Loa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pháp Loa (法螺; 1284–1330) was a Vietnamese Thiền Buddhist monk of the Trúc Lâm Yên Tử sect, and second patriarch of that sect. He was a disciple of Buddhist emperor Trần Nhân Tông (1258–1308).[1]
A recently discovered inscription at Thanh Mai Temple gives biographical details similar to the Tam tổ thực lục.[2]
Pháp Loa compiled the Chu Phẩm Kinh (Various Essential Segments of the Scripture); this was revised and published by his successor Huyền Quang.[3][4]
