- The sutra
- Once, when Ungan was in Yakusan's presence, the master said to him, "What does Hyakujo Osho usually teach?"
- Ungan replied, "He says, 'go beyond three phrases,' or 'go beyond six phrases and get it.'"
- Yakusan commented, "With a distance of seven hundred miles between us, fortunately we don't have anything to do with Hyakujo." But then he continued, "What else does he teach?"
- Ungan said, "Once, after the discourse, when the congregation stood up from their seats, Hyakujo called out to them. When they looked back at the master, Hyakujo said, 'what is that?'"
- Yakusan commented, "You should have said that earlier -- Hyakujo is still doing well. Thanks to you, I was able to see Hyakujo."
- Question 1
- Our Beloved Master, Bodhidharma took Zen from India to China and Japan; you have brought it back to India, completing the circle. Is there some significance in this?
- Also, although India has been the starting point and perhaps the completion of the journey of Zen, in neither instance, it seems, has India itself been receptive to Zen.
