From The True Dharma Eye, Case 247 – Ruiyan Calls “Master!”
How do we experience this “all inclusive world”? It’s our basic situation; this intimacy that all sentient beings share. But it’s hard to have faith in that and we can knot ourselves up and stay in the confines of what we think we know. Shugen Roshi reminds us to ask “What is this”, not “Why is this”, and to ask “What do we not know.”
