[30]
Dongshan said, “You must realize there is something beyond Buddha.”
A monk asked, “What is beyond Buddha?”
Dongshan said, “Not Buddha.”
Yunmen said, “It cannot be named or described; that is why he said ‘not.’ ”
Often, people come here for descriptions, prescriptions, and advice. When they are left with nothing, they wonder if Zen is all about negation.
Yunmen's saying here clearly shows: The negation is only half of it.
