Since the precepts of the Ming Dynasty had descended from the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya 四分律, it had far more precepts than the Sixteen Article Precepts.</p><p>Thereafter, many Sōtō 曹洞宗 monks were affected by and devoted themselves to Chinese Chan precepts. It also resulted in confusion over the rituals for the reception of the precepts.</p><p>Eisen worked hard to rectify the disorder in the Sōtō sect. He severely criticized the Chan precepts, which brought confusion to the monks who participated in the Ming monastic rituals for the reception of the precepts, and to the Sōtō sect monks who were influenced by the Chinese monastic precepts.</p><p>Eisen claimed that the Sixteen Article Precepts were the traditional precepts handed down from Śakyamuni to the Sōtō sect. Also he believed Eisai’s rituals for the reception of the precepts were the origin of the Zen Precepts based on the theory of “Propagation of Zen for the Protection of the Country” (kōzengokoku 興禅護国).</p>
