作者簡介

Chan Master Wujue Miaotian　悟覺妙天禪師

Chan Master Wujue Miaotian started his spiritual journey at age forty. After visiting and studying numerous religions, he became a disciple of the 84th Patriarch of the Order of Chan. After practicing the Profound Buddha Heart Dharma, he attained enlightenment and received transmission from Buddha. Due to his inner witness of the Buddha Heart, along with his inheritance of the Lingji Order, he became the 85th Patriarch of the Order of Chan (an orthodox lineage of Buddhist practice originally trasnmitted from Shakyamuni Buddha to MahaKasyapa.)

The venerable Chan Master witnesses that for the attainment of enlightenment within one lifetime, one must awaken first, must open one’s heart, must witness one’s self-nature, through the state of Right Ding by practicing the formless dharma - the authentic lineage teachings of Chan, transmitted directly from Buddha’s heart to the heart of the practitioner.

The Chan Master graduated from the National Defense University and went to the graduate school in the Political Science Department at the Chinese Culture University in Taiwan. He received his Ph.D. degree from the Institute of Philosophy at the Toyo University in Japan in 1993. In 1999, he was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Philosophy degree by the Institute of International Education in New York.

悟覺妙天禪師於四十歲開始正式修行，在參訪了許多教派後，皈依於禪宗第八十四代宗師門下，修行佛心印心正法，並繼承禪宗臨濟法脈，為摩訶迦葉尊者以來禪宗第八十五代宗師（中土第五十八代、臨濟宗第四十八代）。

禪師認為，由開悟修行禪定，到佛的境界，必須先明心見性，要識自本心，見自本性，這惟有透過禪宗「佛心印心」佛法，秘密內證，才能證得。因為只有入甚深禪定，才能在短時間讓思維歸零，然後從人的境界離開我執、法執，進入靈性的真空本體，此時自性光明自然顯現。

禪師畢業於國防管理大學，曾在文化大學政治研究所研究，後於公元一九九三年獲得日本東洋醫學哲學研究院哲學博士學位，並於公元一九九九年榮獲美國紐約國際教育學院頒授榮譽哲學博士榮銜。
