In addition, it is thought that it was developed after a new definition of mediation and Dhyana (Meditation) were shown in the "Rokusodaishi Hobodangyo" (also known as Rokuso Dankyo, the platform sutra of the sixth patriarch) which included the name of Rokuso Eno (the sixth leader Eno) (638 - 713) and was thought to be edited by his disciple Kataku Jinne.
さらに六祖慧能（638年-713年）の名を使用し、弟子の荷沢神会が編纂したと考えられている『六祖大師法宝壇経（六祖壇経）』に新しい坐禅と禅定の定義が宣揚されたのを契機として発展したものと考えられる。
