Zhu Faya
Zhu Faya () or Faya was a Chinese Jin Dynasty (265-420 CE) Buddhist monk and teacher from Hejian (in modern Hebei province), best known for developing the ''Geyi'' method of explaining numbered categories of Sanskrit terms from the Buddhist canon with comparable lists from the Chinese classics. The dates of Zhu Faya's life are unknown, but he was a student of the Indian monk Fotudeng or Zhu Fotudeng 竺佛圖澄 (c. 231-349), and a contemporary of the translators Dao'an 道安 (312-385) and Zhu Fatai 竺法汰 (320-387).
==Names==
The Chinese name Zhu Faya combines two Buddhist terms. The Chinese surname Zhu 竺, which originally meant "a kind of bamboo" and was later used for "India (abbreviating Tianzhu 天竺)" and "Buddhism", was adopted by many early Buddhist monks, such as the polyglot translator Zhu Fahu 竺法護 or Dharmarakṣa (c. 230-316). Zhu Faya took this surname in honor of his teacher Zhu Fotudeng, as did several other disciples such as Zhu Fatai (above) and Zhu Senglang 竺僧郎 , who in 351 founded the first Buddhist monastery in Shandong. The Buddhist Dharma name (rather than Chinese given name) of ''Faya'' means "Dharmic Elegance", with the Fa "law; Dharma" seen in Fatai and Fahu. The toponymic name Zhu Faya of Zhongshan 中山 (100 km west of Hejian) occurs in the (6th century) ''Memoirs of Eminent Monks'' biography of Fotudeng (tr. Wright 1948:367), which describes famous monks who travelled great distances to hear Fotudeng's discourses.
