Huìwén (慧文)

Huiwen (慧文). The founder of the Tiantai zong in China, who lived during the Northern Qi Dynasty.[1]

He derived from the Gao (高) family in the current Bohai region of Shandong, under the Northern Qi Dynasty, which ruled northeast China between 550 and 577.[2] Huiwen´s doctrine on the 'simultaneity of the mind in the three wisdoms' (一心 三 智 yīxīn sānzhì) was later developed by his disciple Nanyue Huisi in 'simultaneity of the minds in the three consciousnesses'.[3]
