Baizhang Weizheng 百丈惟政

School: Hongzhou | Teacher: Mazu Daoyi

Tang master of Mount Baizhang, one of Mazu Daoyi's heirs (widely, though disputedly, identified with the epithet 百丈涅槃和尚). The lamps preserve his exchange with Nanquan on whether there is a dharma the masters do not preach, and the story of his pointing at a braying donkey.
