up and become aware. It does not teach, it points."

"The no-mind not-thinks no-thoughts about no-things."
-The Buddha

"The epitome of the human realm is to be stuck in a
huge traffic jam of discursive thought."

As long as we are moving spiritually, there will be forward and backward, one day you will learn how to move without ever moving.

Now tell me what that has to say about the unborn, and how does it paint Hakuin's criticisms?

EvilPoet

"High-minded mystics and pilgrams should have the eyes of Zen. When
they open their mouths, they exhaust the senses of a thousand sages,
make a thousand mental objects unbinding; father and mother both die,
guest and host do not stand. If you understand in this way, it is still just
a little bit of Zen perspective understanding, not the whole experience of
Zen. What is the whole experience? Go back and have some tea."
-Chih-men

Wuzu said, "A water buffalo goes through a louvered window. Head,
horns, and all four legs get through. Why can't his tail get through?"

"In the Heart of Chaos is a Seed of Dispare; In the Seed of Dispare is a
Gene of Joy; In the Gene of Joys there is a Base Compound of Hate;
In The Base Compound of Hate, there is a Molecule of Gaiety and Love;
In the Molecule of Gaiety and Love, there is a Fnord. Those who say
Otherwise are probably Correct."

"Commonality is the Downfall of Community. But one must consider the
exception of 'Difference as Commonality,' for one cannot be different
from another without the other also being different."

Explaining a koan to Satsu in a private interview, Hakuin once said, "Now do you understand?" She responded, "Would you please explain it again?" Just as he opened his mouth to speak she interrupted him with, "Thank you for your trouble," and bowed her way out of the room. Hakuin, looking crestfallen, exclaimed, "I've been overthrown by this terrible woman!" -Essential Zen

You may not find a drunken Buddha at the bottom of your bottle, but in your drunken stupor you may realize your innate Buddha-hood. Show me the sound of one hand clapping and I'll show you a sock with holes in it.

"Show me the sound of one hand clapping and I,Äôll pull
a purple monkey from the hole in my sock! Show me
the Upstart of one hand clapping and She may just tell
me to slap the crap out of you. Who knows?"
-St. Hugh's Rant #7

"Show me the sound of one hand clapping,

A wise Zen frog was explaining to the younger frogs the balance of
nature: "Do you see how that fly eats a gnat? And now (with a bite)
I eat the fly. It is all part of the great scheme of things."

"Isn't it bad to kill in order to live?" asked the thoughtful frog.

"It depends . . ." answered the wise frog just as a snake swallowed
the Zen frog in one chomp before the frog finished his sentence.

"Depends on what?" shouted the students.

"Depends on whether you're looking at things from the inside or outside,"
came the muffled response from inside the snake.
