What is the teaching by Bodhidharma?

Bodhidharma was born as the third prince of an Indian country. He had studied Zen under Prajñãtãra and got enlightenment. He went across the sea way to China Liáng and conveyed Zen.

He taught Zen what to be affectionate behavior to others and to be all might in every situation with voluntarily.  Zazen is not only Zen but also all jobs. While nine years Zazen, he conveyed it to his disciple whose name was Eka.

Bodhidharma’s Zen is by practicing actually and is not an armchair theory learning. At that period, the central idea in China Buddhism was in much arguments. So they did not received Zen. Therefore he was persecuted by others.

They say that he returned to India remaining his one side shoe in his tomb or went back to India riding on the reed leaf passing the sea way. It tend to say the legendary story for a historical great man.
