*''Japanese'': 達磨宗 ''(daruma shuu)''
Darumashû, or the [[Bodhidharma]] Sect, was an early sect of [[Zen]] [[Buddhism]] promoted in Japan by a monk named [[Nonin|Nônin]]. In sharp contrast to the [[Rinzai]] Zen teachings of [[Eisai]], with whom Nônin was a contemporary, and who saw Zen as a way of reinvigorating [[Tendai]] ritual practice, Nônin advocated that there was no need for monastic discipline or ritual practice, since personal enlightenment could be attained through any activity.
The teachings of the Darumashû were banned by the Imperial Court in [[1194]], along with those of Eisai.
