A question: Is this the right place to ask this?

I have heard some people say that they did not know that Zen was taught by a Zen Master? Or, more broadly, that Zen had no master in Zen lineage?

I have also heard some people say that Zen was taught by a person called "Zen Master", but, I have heard that Zen Masters did not teach about Zen.

Does anyone know why Zen is taught by this one Zen Master, and not by Zen Masters?

Also, what is the difference between a Zen Master and a Buddhist?
