THIS WEEK IN THE TEMPLE
KOAN OF THE WEEK
One day, when Master Huangbo was leaving, Nanquan asked,
“Why would such a large man wear such a tiny bamboo hat?”
Huangbo replied, “The entire universe can still fit inside.”
Nanquan responded, “Am I inside also?”
Huangbo put on his hat and left.
The great Huangbo departs from his dharma uncle Nanquan, as told in A Bird in Flight Leaves No Trace: The Zen Teachings of Huangbo with a Modern Commentary.
