The evolution of Zen Buddhism from Indian Zen to Chinese Zen is a process of localization of foreign cultures. Because Chinese literati and doctors have the cultural identity characteristic of "chasing the way", along with the aesthetic consciousness of Wei and Jin, the aesthetic realm of Zen Buddhism has also deeply affected this group. The ancestor of literati painting, Wang Wei, lived in the Tang Dynasty, when Zen Buddhism was mature and prosperous. The literati's perception of life is highlighted in poetic form with the carrier of pen and ink, and thus stands out in the forest of world art. In the late Ming Dynasty, with the great geographical discoveries of the West, the process of globalization began. During this period, the process of Chinese literati painting produced three climaxes, two of which occurred during the Yi dynasty, and the political turmoil pushed the culture to a higher level. However, after the peak of literati painting in the Ming and Qing dynasties, its decline was inevitable with the strong intervention of Western culture and the drawbacks of literati painting. What is the relationship between its rise and decline and the evolution of Zen thought and culture? After the decline of literati painting, how did Zen Buddhism, which is the core aesthetic thought, survive? Chinese culture has a long history of evolution, during which Zen culture reached its climax in the Tang and Song dynasties, but then gradually declined, the rise of science and psychology, and the integration of the three teachings also made Zen Buddhism decline as an independent sect, but the spirit of Zen Buddhism was integrated into all aspects of Chinese culture due to its round and pure aesthetic height. The hidden ways of survival of this undercurrent are as follows: (1) the evolution and influence of Confucianism; (2) Pan Tianshou's insistence on traditional teaching; (3) the influence of modern international students in Japan; (4) The Zen of the painting monastic system remains. The survival of Zen Buddhism in these ways made its rise in later development inevitable. At present, the global economic integration, the Western industrial revolution brought material civilization to the East, but also threw its drawbacks over, not only industrially, culturally, they also faced their own insurmountable bottlenecks. Two Japanese Zen scholars, Daisuke Suzuki and Toshitaka Suzuki, had a good influence on the spread of Zen ideas in Europe and the United States by combining Western culture, and postmodernism came into being. Although postmodernism's understanding of Zen is Western-style and does not fully conform to the original meaning of Zen, the West's determination to regenerate with the help of Zen ideas can be felt. In this Internet era where information exchange is extremely smooth, Eastern and Western cultures gradually learn from each other in contradictions and confrontations, and this integration is not the annihilation of the characteristics of the two aesthetic systems, but the complementarity of the long and the short, that is, as Mr. Fei Xiaotong said: each has its own beauty, and the beauty is the same. Zen Buddhism focuses on ontological perception and is a pure culture without distinction, and this "non-differentiated" aesthetic state can produce benign interaction between Eastern and Western cultures at the ontological level with the diversified ways of "beauty and harmony" and "harmony but difference" of Western civilization. Western culture is also becoming more and more interested in Zen thought, such as the famous Stanford University in the United States has a meditation center, and Chinese Zen masters are increasingly going abroad to teach the teachings. As far as Chinese painting is concerned, after making many explorations under the influence of the West in modern times, it has gradually calmed down, and began to trace its roots in the aesthetic field, focusing on in-depth exploration at the national aesthetic level. In the past two years, the "Huang Binhong Art Exhibition" and "Pan Tianshou Art Exhibition" held by the National Art Museum of China and the "Four Monks Painting Exhibition" held by the Palace Museum have caused great repercussions in the society, which can be regarded as the landmark events of the re-emergence of traditional aesthetics, and Zen Buddhism as an important core of traditional aesthetics has also gained great significance in current research. Keywords: Zen, literati, survival, purity, self-confidence AbstractThe evolution of Indian Zen Buddhism to Chinese Zen Buddhism is a process of the domestication of foreign cultures. Because of the fact that Chinese scholar-bureaucrats enjoyed the cultural identity of“following religions”,the aesthetic state of the Zen had deeply influenced the group of scholar-bureaucrats with the aesthetics of the Wei and the Jin Dynasties.The founder of the Painting of Man-of-letters,Wang Wei,lived in the Tang Dynasty when the Zen Buddhism was at its prime and prosperity. The perceptions and inspirations of men-of-letters were manifested through the form of painting,and have been since featured among the world of arts. Since the late Ming Dynasty the process of globalization began with the great geographical discovery in the West.During this period,the Chinese Painting of Man-of-letters experienced three times of climaxes among which two took place at the time of the change of dynasties when the political upheavals pushed culture to the height. However,with the aggressive entry of Western cultures and the disadvantages caused by the decadent stage of the Painting of Man-of-letters,its decline was inevitable. What is the evolutionary relation between the prosperity and decline of the Painting of Man-of-letters and the Zen Buddhism philosophy and culture? How did the Zen Buddhism continue as the core aesthetic philosophy of the Painting of Man-of-letters after its decline? Chinese culture has a long history of evolution,during which the Zen Buddhism reached the climax and then declined when the Ra tionalistic Confucian Philosophy and the School of Mind went to their primes. The combination of Buddhism,Taoism and Confucianism led to the decline of the Zen Buddhism as an independent religion. However,the spirits of Zen Buddhism were immersed to the different aspects of Chinese culture because of the aesthetic level of its purity and harmony. The ways of its lurking undercurrent continuance are as follows:1.The evolution and influence of Confucian Zen Buddhism; 2.Pan Tianshou' s perseverance to the traditional teaching of painting; 3.The influence experienced by the overseas Chinese students in Japan,and 4.The existence of the Zen with the Painting Monks System.The continuance of the Zen Buddhism philosophy in these ways made its prosperity in the later development inevitable. Nowadays with the economic globalization,the Western Industrial Revolution brought forth to the East not only the material civilization,but also disadvantages both in industry,and in culture where they have their own invincible bottleneck. The two Japanese Zen masters Daisetz Suzuki and Shunryu Suzuki made great contributions in spreading the philosophies of Zen philosophies by combining them with European and American cultures, where the post-modernism emerged as the times required. The post-modernism had its understanding of Zen in the western way,which is not completely in line with the philosophies of Zen Buddhism.However,the determination to be reborn by the Zen Buddhism in the West can still be felt. In this information age when the East and the West cultures exchanged and immersed with each other through conflicts,the immersion of these two is not the distinction of the features of the two different aesthetic systems. Instead,it reflects the complementation of the two,as what Mr.Fei Xiaotong described as the existence of the differences but harmonies of various beauties. The Zen Buddhism focuses on the comprehension of noumenon and therefore it is an indistinct culture of purity. This indistinct aesthetic state leads to the positive mutual effects between the Eastern and Western cultures during the process of the diversified coexistence of Zen Buddhism and Western civilization. The Western civilization has more and more interest in Zen Buddhism philosophies and more Chinese Zen masters began to spread the philosophies outside China.For example,Stanford University of the U.S.has its own Meditation Center.As far as Chinese painting is concerned,it had made many explorations under the influence of the West in modern and contemporary times,and has settled down to seek the origin in the aesthetics field and focuses on deeper explorations at the national aesthetic levels. In the past two years,the Great Art Exhibition of Huang Binhong,the Great Art Exhibition of Pan Tianshou by the National Art Museum of China,and the Art Exhibition by the Four Monks held by the Palace Museum have given rise to great influence in society,and these events can be considered as a symbol of the resurgence of traditional aesthetics,and as a result,the study of Zen Buddhism as the core of traditional aesthetics has been of great importance in current days.
