Summary "Zhao Lun" plays an important role in the history of Chinese Buddhism. This article aims to explore his criticism of the "Three Schools", with a particular focus on Seng Zhao's "No Vacuum Theory". This paper decodes and criticizes three issues: "Xinwu Zong", "Ben Wu Zong" and "Jise Zong". This article is divided into three major chapters to draw conclusions and resolve the issues raised. First, starting from the life of Seng Zhao, we explore how Buddhism was introduced into China, including religious impact, political and social turmoil and other issues. Secondly, it discusses how to explain Buddhism through Lao-Zhuang metaphysics and the rise of the study of pure talk. Finally, explore the process of expansion and evolution of Buddhism and how celebrities and scholar-bureaucrats influenced the development of the sect. This article mainly focuses on the formation of Geyi Buddhism, and discusses the integration of Prajna, Konghui and Lao-Zhuang metaphysics, as well as the new theories arising from it. Although Geyi Buddhism has shortcomings in explaining Prajna, it has promoted Sinicization of Indian Buddhism. The focus of this article is Seng Zhao’s criticism of the six schools and seven sects of Geyi Buddhism. First, we will explore the motivations for these criticisms. Secondly, we will clarify the misunderstandings of Prajna emptiness among the six schools and seven sects, and explain the errors therein. In addition, we will explore secondary issues such as how prajna is perceived and the interrelationship between dependent origination and false conjunction. These will be the focus of our research. The author is very interested in Sanzhao's views on Sarvastivada's "three worlds of existence and the eternal existence of the dharma body", and wants to explore the relationship between the past, present, future and the reality of things. At the same time, the author is also curious about Seng Zhao’s unique views on time and will explore this issue in depth. In "The Theory of Absence of Vacuum", Seng Zhao elaborates on concepts such as "no existence and no nothingness" and "the nature of form is empty". It is worth exploring whether it belongs to the Madhyamaka system of thought or vice versa. These questions have aroused the interest of the author, because I believe that Prajna thought is both profound and abstract, and difficult to understand except in a transcendental way, so I hope to explore it in depth VIII through research. In addition, the author will explore the three views on "Dharma Seal" in the "Mahayana Dharma Garden Yilin Chapter" and try to find a reasonable explanation. Finally, the author will pursue the wisdom of Buddhist Prajna, explore why the Madhyamaka thought is the main idea, and discuss in depth the concepts of emptiness, falsehood, and neutrality in the "Middle Way" regarding "the origin of all causes and conditions." These issues are worthy of in-depth discussion and are of great significance. Keywords: Seng Zhao, Prajna, "Abstract Theory", Geyi Buddhism, Three Schools
