What's Zen?

Give me your best shot.

Here's mine.

The ingredients:

Dhyana dheie- (root meaning to see) Dharma dher- (root meaning to hold firmly) Yana ei- (root meaning to go)

The recipe:

Combine the Dh- in Dharma with Yana and stir. Then let simmer for an instant.

The result:

The Zen Dharma therefore constitutes 'the vehicle of the teaching of seeing reality'

Bodhidharma said:

Though I handed down Mind's Dharma,

How can Dharma be a Dharma?

For neither Mind nor Dharma

Can objectively exist.

Only thus you'll understand

The Dharma that is passed with Mind to Mind.

What's cooking?
