Bodhidharma
Bodhidharma (d. 536A.D.) was from the Brahman caste of South India and honored as the 28th Patriarch of Buddhism. At the temple, Bodhidharma had meditated in a small cave of the Wuru Peak for nine years and introduced Chan tradition into Shaolin Temple. He was revered as the first Patriarch of Chinese Chan Buddhism.
Huike (487-593, secular surname: Yi) was also known as Sengke and Shengguang, born in Hulao, Luoyang City(northeast of modern Xingyang City, Henan Province). He studied with Bodhidharma and succeeded Bodhidharma to become the Second Patriarch of Chan Buddhism. On the southeastern mountain nearby Shaolin Temple are the Second Patriarch Temple and Arm-heeling Terrace.
Faru (638-689, secular name: Wang), was born in the Shangdang area (modern Changzhi City, Shanxi Province).
