- The sutras
- Once, Hakugan said to Yakusan, who was reading a scripture, "You should stop fooling people."
- As he rolled up the text, Yakusan asked, "What time of day is it?"
- Hakugan replied, "Just noon."
- Yakusan then said, "There is still this pattern."
- Hakugan responded: "I don't even have nothing," to which Yakusan said, "you are too brilliant."
- Hakugan commented, "I am just thus. What about you?"
- Yakusan said, "I limp along, ungainly in a hundred ways, clumsy in a thousand; still I go on this way."
- On another occasion, Yakusan asked a monk, "Where have you come from?"
- "From the southern lake," replied the monk.
- "Has the lake overflowed its banks?" asked Yakusan.
- "Not yet," answered the monk.
- Then Yakusan said, "So much rain and the lake not yet full?"
- But the monk was silent.
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, "So much rain and the lake is not yet full."
- What do we do that we continuously leak, and so lose all that we are given?
