Abstract | The seventh century Chinese Buddhist, Fa Zang played a key role in systematizing the Huayan school of Chinese Buddhism. Fa Zang devotes energy to the problem. His solution comes in the form of three tests offered as tools that can be employed by practitioners. A Huayan practitioner's continued spiritual growth requires balancing three approaches to determine the moral value of a message and messenger. That is to say, the aspirant is encouraged to apply traditional criteria of proper conduct, consider doubts that arise in light of their application, and also nurture an unconditional faith.
