玄奘 - XuanZang
Xuanzang (Chinese: 玄奘; pinyin: Xuán Zàng; Wade–Giles: Hsüan-tsang) (c. 602 – 664) was a famous Chinese Buddhist monk, scholar, traveler, and translator who described the interaction between China and India in the early Tang period.
Born in Henan province of China in 602 or 603, from boyhood he took to reading sacred books, mainly the Chinese Classics and the writings of the ancient sages.
While residing in the city of Luoyang, Xuanzang entered Buddhist monkhood at the age of thirteen. Due to the political and social unrest caused by the fall of the Sui dynasty, he went to Chengdu in Sichuan (Szechuan), where he was ordained at the age of twenty. From Xingdu, he travelled throughout China in search of sacred books of Buddhism. At length, he came to Chang'an, then under the peaceful rule of Emperor Taizong of Tang. Here Xuanzang developed the desire to visit India. He knew about Faxian's visit to India and, like him, was concerned about the incomplete and misinterpreted nature of the Buddhist scriptures that reached China.
He became famous for his seventeen year overland trip to India and back, which is recorded in detail in his autobiography and a biography, and which provided the inspiration for the epic novel Journey to the West.

梵文名：摩诃耶那提婆Mahāyānadeva，
唐言：大乘天
Mahā摩诃（大）yāna耶那（乘）deva提婆（天）
唐朝著名的三藏法師，漢傳佛教史上最偉大的譯經師，中國佛教法相唯識宗創始人。俗姓陳，名褘，出生於河南洛陽洛州緱氏縣（今河南省偃師市南境）。他是中國著名古典小說《西遊記》中心人物唐僧的原型。
玄奘是一位前往佛教發源地印度取經的和尚。他從中國出發，旅途歷時16年，行程達6·4萬千米，途經阿富汗、克什米爾和印度北方等地。他的旅行是秘密進行的，因爲當時的皇帝尚不允許中國人跨出國門到外界去旅行。
玄奘在旅途中多次遇險。危險來自惡劣的天氣和高山。玄奘有一次在喝泉水時，差點被箭射死。後來他又在印度北方塔克西拉王國被投入獄中。爲了逃命，他幾乎凍死。

玄奘祖籍河南洛州緱氏縣，家族本是儒學世家。為東漢名臣陳寔（104年—187年）的後代，曾祖陳欽曾任東魏上黨（今山西長治）太守，祖父陳康為北齊國子博士，父親陳惠在隋初曾任江陵縣令，大業末年辭官隱居，此後潛心儒學修養。他有三個哥哥，二哥陳素，早年於洛陽淨土寺出家，以講經說法聞名於世，號長捷法師。
玄奘於隋朝仁壽二年出生，少時因家境困難，跟長捷法師住淨土寺，學習佛經五年。在這期間他學習了小乘和大乘佛教，而他本人偏好後者。他十一歲（613年）就熟讀《妙法蓮華經》、《維摩詰經》。十三歲時（615年）洛陽度僧，被破格入選。其後聽景法師講《涅槃》，從嚴法師學《攝論》，升座複述，分析詳盡，博得大眾的欽敬。
隋煬帝大業末年，兵亂飢荒，618年隋朝滅亡。玄奘跟長捷法師前往唐朝首都長安，後得知當時名僧多在蜀地，因而又同往成都。在那裡聽寶暹講《攝論》、道基講《雜心》、惠振講《八犍度論》。三、五年間，究通諸部，聲譽大著。唐高祖武德五年（622年），玄奘在成都受具足戒。
