Chéngluán 成巒 (Chéngluán Chuánshàn 成巒傳善)
Mid-seventeenth-century Cáodòng Chán monk of the 成-generation (dharma-grandson of Bóshān Wúyì Yuánlái 博山無異元來 through Xuěguān Zhìyín 雪關智誾). Shìzhě 侍者 (attendant) to Zhìyín. Full form Chéngluán Chuánshàn 成巒傳善; commonly signed as simply Chuánshàn 傳善. See the cross-reference at 傳善 for the detailed editorial biography including the 1656 post-fire reconstruction of the 6-juan yǔlù recension.
The 成-generation character places him as a contemporary of Chéngxǔ 成許 (named in Zhìyín’s 塔銘 as one of the disciples who carried the master’s body back to Bóshān) and Chéngzhèng 成正 (the recorder of KR6q0417 Yuánlái’s yǔlù).
