A Life of Huang Po by John M Evans. In the Zen Masters Series.
If you are following our Zen Masters series over on Spiritual Nirvana, you may like to know that the Life of our 5th Zen master, Huang Po, is now getting underway.
Huang Po was interesting in a number of respects. He coined the concept of “original mind”. He was also the master of Lin Chi, or Rinzai, after whom one of the major Japanese schools of Zen is named.
Method is the central principle in Zen. Moreover, no Zen master placed so great an emphasis on the method of awakening — as opposed to the practice of doctrinal forms — as did Huang Po.
You can find links to the four previous biographies in the Archive section in the sidebar.

PayPal is moving its British base for all European transactions to Luxembourg, where it will be regulated under EU rather than UK rules.
Currently, PayPal (Europe) Ltd. is the service provider for PayPal in the EU. PayPal (Europe) Ltd. is a UK company regulated and authorised by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in the UK …
From 2 July 2007, a new PayPal company, PayPal (Europe) S.Ã r.l. & Cie, S.C.A. (PayPal Luxembourg), will become the service provider for PayPal in the EU. This is a Luxembourg entity regulated as a bank by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), the Luxembourg equivalent of the FSA. PayPal Luxembourg will provide the PayPal service throughout the EU.
This is an ominous move for British users, since PayPal is now swallowed up in the eurozone currency area of which the UK is not a member.
This represents a downgrading of the service and yet another euroization of British business.
