Major Buddhist Schools

In the first half of the 20th century, a number of Buddhist schools were revived, while other schools continued to thrive. As with Chinese Buddhism in other periods, an individual's association with one of these "schools" most often represented philosophical or practical affiliation, and did not necessarily imply creedal or sectarian commitment.

These pages list major figures, institutions, and publications associate with schools of Chinese Buddhism important during this period:

• Chán 禪宗
• Huáyán 華嚴宗
• Mìjiào 密教 (Esoteric Buddhism)
• Pure Land 淨土宗
• Tiāntái 天台宗
• Vinaya 律宗
• Wéishì 唯識 (Consciousness-Only)
  • Associated school of Hetuvodya 因明 (Buddhist logic)
