'''Jianzhi Sengcan''' ({{zh|c=鑑智僧璨}}; [[Hànyǔ Pīnyīn|Pīnyīn]]: ''Jiànzhì Sēngcàn''; [[Wade–Giles]]: {{lang|zh-Latn|Chien-chih Seng-ts'an}}; [[Romanization of Japanese|Rōmaji]]: {{lang|ja-Latn|Kanchi Sōsan}}) is known as the Third Chinese Patriarch of [[Chán]] after [[Bodhidharma]] and thirtieth Patriarch after Siddhārtha [[Gautama Buddha]].

He is considered to be the Dharma successor of the second Chinese Patriarch, [[Dazu Huike]] ([[Chinese language|Chinese]]: {{lang|zh|大祖慧可}}; [[Pinyin|Pīnyīn]]: ''Dàzǔ Huìkě''; [[Wade–Giles]]: {{lang|zh-Latn|Ta-tsu Hui-k’o}}; [[Romanization of Japanese|Rōmaji]]: {{lang|ja-Latn|Taiso Eka}}). Sengcan is best known as the putative author of the famous [[Chan Buddhism|Chan]] poem, ''[[Xinxin Ming]]''  ([[Chinese language|Chinese]]: {{lang|zh|信心銘}}; [[Pinyin|Pīnyīn]]: ''Xìnxīn Míng''; [[Wade–Giles]]: {{lang|zh-Latn|Hsin-hsin Ming}}), the title of which means "{{lang|en|Inscription on Faith in Mind}}".
