"If they have no wounds, don't wound them" is said to mean "don't use lesser teaching when higher teaching is available"
-BCR Case 7
When one says "Ah, this means I am the Buddha", they further distance their self from theirself. They say "I am Buddha", but do not say "I am me". Unlike Yahweh, they ignore the factuality of both their authority and defining of IS-ing and IS-ness.
Suppose I approached Foyan and asked this question. If I asked him, "What is Buddha?”, and he were to say "You are Dan", then I would respond "I am Dan."
How could this be misunderstood? How could this be but be?
Consider the case of Professor Gerace. Taylor, upon asking how to solve the physics problem, was asked by Gerace, "What is your name?" Mere miliseconds later, Taylor said, "Ah! Taylor expansion!"
This is truly an example of breaking in and crashing out. Socrates could not dream of being able to be so direct in the manner, for he was searching for truth and exposing frauds. While this is perfectly perfect, it is only half of what we call "breaking in and crashing out".
The breaking in can happen, but what of a student who doesn't wish to crash out? This is what we call "avoidant-dissmissive". A lack of curiosity or faith in mind. A student who has crashed out - how could they be called a student? If they were to don the graduate cap, they would be free to break in and crash out as they pleased. We see Foyan can do both.
Have you not heard Merlin speak of the perogative of the wise man to play the fool as they see fit? It is said in Zen, when you don't meet a poet, don't show them your poem.
Tell me, who here can say they hear Foyan? Speak up and tell me the name you had before your parents conceived you.
