Zen is all about meditation till one hears the 'SINGLE HAND CLAPPING'
Any disciple in between will ask questions will surely get the Master's stick. The point is when one can hear the single hand clapping he is left with no more question to ask. He is no more HE He becomes a drop in the ocean. He gets rebirth as a part of the whole. Actual life starts there on, fully concious. if anyone will ask what is this single hand clap can only say it is the soundless sound. The sound which is from the begining. can only be heard with a STILL mind. This core activity of life, without which one will carry on with the karmic cycle of life and death till all desires gets exhauted/fulfilled. Love rgds |

Friend Willamena,
Look at your MIND. As soon as you hear the word stick, you take it as real. It need not be real. The master only shows the wavering of the mind. Like yours just did. Love & rgds |
