- The sutras
- After Hyakujo had become a master in his own right, he asked Obaku where he had come from.
- Obaku said, "From gathering mushrooms at the foot of mount Daiyu."
- "Did you see the tiger there?" asked Hyakujo.
- Obaku roared like a tiger. Hyakujo lifted up his axe and made as if to chop him down. Obaku gave Hyakujo a slap.
- Hyakujo sang out and laughed, and went back to his seat. To the monks he said, "At the foot of mount Daiyu there is a tiger which you positively must see. Your old Hyakujo has just had a word with him."
- On another occasion, it was snowing, and the monk in charge asked Hyakujo to give a sermon.
- Hyakujo said, "Falling in flakes, the color scheme and pattern are complete. Why must I go to the hall and preach?"
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, your voice is like a lifeline through the discourse, leading us into our gibberish insanity and then retrieving us, taking us into our stillness, being there in our death, and calling us back to resurrection and celebration.
- I have heard it said that the master leaves the disciple at some point and that ultimately one has to go by oneself. But you seem to be traveling with us into such intimate territory, walking so closely with us; and I have the feeling more and more that you are not leaving me, but meeting me.
