The Gateless Barrier - Case #1: What are we having for dinner tonight?

Case

A monk asked Joshu, a Chinese Zen master: "Has a dog Buddha-nature or not?"

Joshu answered: "Mu."

Comment

Are we having dog tonight?

Are we going to eat you up just because you believe you can become enlightened?

It's monstrous what is being suggested. Yet my imagination has capacity for contemplating such a world. How about yours?
