The Huayan school (Chinese: 華嚴宗 ||pinyin]]: Huáyán Zōng; Japanese: Kegon; Sanskrit: Avataṃsaka) or Flower Garland is a tradition of Mahayana Buddhist philosophy that flourished in China during the Tang period. It is based on the Sanskrit Flower Garland Sutra and on a lengthy Chinese interpretation of it, the Huayan Lun. The name "Flower Garland" is meant to suggest the crowning glory of profound understanding.
