What is a koan?
A monk asks, “Does a dog have Buddha nature?”
Joshu replies, “Mu.”
What is the sound of one hand clapping?
From the outside, Zen koans can seem irrational, strange - even absurd. If we try to approach them with the ordinary intellectual mind, attempting to analyse or decode them like a crossword puzzle, we quickly become confused.
In this talk, Zen teacher Mark Kuren Westmoquette explores the ingenuity of the koan system - a training method developed in early Chinese Zen that was never designed to satisfy the analytical mind, but to exhaust it. Rather than thinking about the koan, we are invited to step inside it. To enter its world. To feel it with the whole body-mind.
