菩提達摩（梵語：बोधिधर्म，羅馬化：Bodhidharma，[boːd̪ʱid̪ʱɐɽmɐ]，382年－536年），又作菩提達磨，簡稱達摩，為南天竺人或波斯人，經海路將大乘佛教禪宗帶入中國，為中國禪宗之開創者，被尊稱為達摩祖師、「東土第一代祖師」^[1]，並與寶誌禪師、傅大士合稱梁代三大士。Bodhidharma was a semi-legendary Buddhist monk who lived during the 5th or 6th century CE. He is traditionally credited as the transmitter of Chan Buddhism to China, and is regarded as its first Chinese patriarch. According to a 17th-century apocryphal story found in a manual called Yijin Jing, he began the physical training of the monks of Shaolin Monastery which led to the creation of Shaolin kungfu. He is known as Dámó in China and as Daruma in Japan. His name means “dharma of awakening (bodhi)” in Sanskrit.
