Abstract

The Chan Buddhism, originating from India and transmitted to China by Bodhidharma, was later transmitted to Vietnam, reaching its peak during the Tran dynasty with the establishment of the Truc Lam Zen school.
The article explores the transmission of Chan from India to China and Vietnam, the formation and development of the Truc Lam Zen school during the Tran dynasty, the ideological characteristics, the synthesis of the Three Teachings in Tran dynasty Zen Buddhism, and the unity of Indian, Chinese, and Vietnamese Buddhist cultures. It demonstrates the close relationship between Zen, especially Chan Buddhism, and the influences of Indian and Chinese Buddhist cultures on Vietnam during the Tran dynasty, affirming that any ideology transmitted to Vietnam undergoes adaptation and synthesis.
