Taego Bou
Taego Bou (Hangul: 태고보우; hanja: 太古普愚, 1301–1382), alternatively romanized as Taego Bowoo or Taego Bowu, was a Korean Seon master who lived in Goryeo, was the cofounder of the Jogye Order with Jinul, and is credited as the founder of the modern Taego Order.
According to tradition,[1] he unified five different branches of Buddhism and nine different Seon lineages into a single order which still continues. For his efforts, he was appointed as a supreme patriarch for the dynasty.[2] This helped set the standard for Korean Buddhism by bringing both doctrinal and practice-oriented sects together under a single umbrella.[2]
