If Zen is just eating, drinking, sitting and pissing, why all the endless literature and interpretation?

You rush here pointlessly, what are you looking for?

All I know how to do is eat, drink, shit and piss.

Why do you make a special interpretation?

You travel around to various places studying zen, learning about the path, but let me ask you a question... What have you learned at all those places, try to bring it out?

Yunmen. (D. 949)

I'm heading off to take a dump.

Peace.
