The question of the classification of Buddhism, how is Buddhism classified?

According to one or more gods: Theravada Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism. According to the regional influence of Buddhism: Han Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, Southern Buddhism. According to the way of practice: Buddhist Sutra and Buddhist Tantra.

Theravada Buddhism is Theravada Buddhism, and Theravada Buddhism allows you to get married and have children, and then your son goes on to become a monk.

Yes, but Mahayana also includes Tibetan Buddhism

Buddhism is classified differently according to different standards of reference:

1. According to the scope of transmission, that is, the river basin: Han Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism and Southern Buddhism; It is also divided into Southern Buddhism and Northern Buddhism (including Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism);

2. According to the realm, they are: Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism; However, followers of Southern Buddhism are very concerned about the distinction between "big and small", and call it "Mahayana Buddhism" and "Theravada Buddhism".

3. According to the form and method of practice, it is divided into Sutra and Tantra, of which Sutra is further subdivided into ten sects, that is, eight Mahayana sects: Zen Buddhism (Zen Buddhism is subdivided into "one flower blooms and five leaves", and is further subdivided into Rinzai sect, Weiyang sect, Caodong sect, Dharma eye core stuffy sect, Yunmen sect, among them, the Rinzai sect is extremely powerful, and derived from the Huanglong sect and the Yangqi sect), Tiantai sect, Huayan sect, Shingon sect, Dharma Xiang sect, Vinaya sect, Three Treatises sect, Pure Land sect, two Hinayana sects: Kusha sect, Chengshi sect; Tantra is subdivided into five sects, namely Gelug, Sakya, Nyingma Gailuwan, Kagyu and Bon, which are also called Yellow Sect, Flower Sect, Red Sect, White Sect, and Black Sect because of their different clothing and colors.

There have been ten major sects in Chinese history: these are:

1. Huayan Buddhism, 2. Tiantai Buddhism, 3. Enlightenment Buddhism, 4. 3 Treatise Buddhism, 5. Zen Buddhism, 6. Pure Land Buddhism, 7. Vinaya Buddhism, 8. Tantric Buddhism, 9. Kusha Buddhism, and 10. Chengshi Buddhism. Ones to eight are Mahayana sects, and nine, and ten are Hinayana sects.

Buddhism is education, not a sect; Due to the changes of history, the only ones left in China are "Zen Buddhism", "Tiantai Buddhism", "Huayan Buddhism", "Faxiang Buddhism" (also known as "Wisdom Buddhism"), "Pure Land Buddhism" and "Tantra Buddhism" (also known as "Shingon Buddhism").

Mahayana and Hinayana Buddhism, Sutra Tantra. Pure Land Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, Wutai Buddhism. Due to the different methods of cultivation, it is divided into many sects. But all in one. There is no distinction between schools of Buddhism.

The Buddha said that in order to benefit sentient beings and facilitate the Dharma for sentient beings, Buddhism originally had 36,000 methods, each of which can be the right way, but to this day, only the Tiantai sect, the Three Treatises sect, the Wisdom Sect, the Huayan sect, the Vinaya sect, the Pure Land sect, the Zen sect, and the tantric sect have been handed down.

Mahayana, Hinayana are just these two.

There are Mahayana teachings and Hinayana teachings, and the Mahayana is for all people, and the Hinayana is for itself.
