1. Tao-choTao-cho, who lived 562–645, was a Chinese Buddhist scholar of the Nirvana Sutra, but later became an eminent scholar of the Pure Land school. In Jodo Shinshu, he is considered the fourth Patriarch. According to legend, Tao-cho once visited the temple of Tan-luan, and read an inscription on the wall that venerated Tan-luan. Tao-cho was so impressed by this inscription that he took up the pursuit of Pure Land Buddhism over his previous studies.
