  法相宗 - [py] Făxiāng zōng [wg] Fa-hsiang tsung [ko] 법상종 Pŏpsang jong [ja] ホッソウシュウ Hossōshū ||| The Faxiang zong, or "Dharma-character" school. An East Asian form of the Indian Yogācāra 瑜伽行派 tradition. This school was founded in China by Hsüan-tsang (玄奘), who, on his return from China, brought with him a wagonload of the most important Consciousness-only texts. These, with government support and many assistants, he translated into Chinese. His disciple Kuiji 窺基 wrote a number of important commentaries on the Consciousness-only texts and further developed the influence of the school in China. The Faxiang teachings were transmitted to Korea (Pŏpsang) and Japan (Hossō), where they made considerable impact. Although the Faxiang zong/Pŏpsang chong/Hossō shū tradition would all but die out as an independent sect, its Consciousness-only teachings made a major impact on the native East Asian traditions that would later develop, most notably Tiantai, Huayan and Chan Buddhism. Peter Gregory writes: "Faxiang is especially associated with the thought of Xuanzang and Kuiji, as unlike earlier forms of Yogācāra traditions in China, it rejected the idea of the tathāgatagarbha and so denied the universal accessibility of enlightenment, and for that reason was only regarded as an elementary form of Mahāyāna by the Huayan 華嚴 tradition. The term Faxiang itself was first applied to this tradition by the Huayan thinker Fazang 寶藏, who used it to emphasize the inferiority of Faxiang teachings, which only dealt with the 'phenomenal appearances of the dharmas' in contrast to Huayan, which dealt with the underlying 'nature' on which such phenomenal appearances were based." (Gregory-1995: 213). See also 瑜伽行派 and weishi 唯識. [Dictionary References] Iwa742 [Credit] cmuller(entry) cwittern(py)
