[[East Asian Buddhism]] is influenced by both the classic Indian Buddhist presentations of the path such as the Eightfold Path as well as classic Indian Mahāyāna presentations such as that found in the [[Da zhidu lun]].<ref>Robert E.

There are many different presentations of [[soteriology]], including numerous paths and vehicles (''yanas'') in the different traditions of East Asian Buddhism.<ref>Robert E. Buswell, Robert M. Gimello (1992). ''"Paths to Liberation: The Marga and Its Transformations in Buddhist Thought,"''  p. 316. (Studies in East Asian Buddhism). University of Hawaii Press.</ref> There is no single dominant presentation. In [[Zen Buddhism]] for example, one can find outlines of the path such as the [[Long Scroll of the Treatise on the Two Entrances and Four Practices|Two Entrances and Four Practices]]'','' The [[Five Ranks|Five ranks]], The [[Ten Bulls|Ten Ox-Herding Pictures]] and [[Linji Yixuan#Expressing the inexpressible|The Three mysterious Gates]] of Linji.
