- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Ma Prem Maneesha. Questions are being read by Osho himself.
After discourse Osho leads No-Mind Meditation.
- The sutras
- Kyogen was asked by a monk, "What is the way?"
- He answered, "A dragon singing in a withered tree."
- The monk said, "I don't know what you are talking about."
- Kyogen said, "The pupils of the eyes of a skull."
- Afterwards, another monk asked Sekiso,
- "What is this 'dragon singing in a withered tree'?"
- Sekiso said, "It is being invested with joy."
- The monk then asked, "What is this 'pupils of a skull'?"
- Sekiso said, "It is the garment of wisdom."
- Again, a monk asked Sozan what the dragon singing in the withered tree meant, and he answered, "The pulse does not stop."
- To the question about what the pupils of the skull signified, he answered, "Not quite dry."
- The monk asked, "Is there anyone who can hear the dragon singing?"
- Sozan replied, "In all the wide world, there is not a single person who does not hear it."
- The monk asked whose words they were.
- Sozan said, "I don't know, but whoever hears them will lose his life."
- Sozan composed a verse:
- The dragon in the withered tree
- Really sees the way.
- The eyes of the skull above all
- Become clear.
- Knowledge reaches its limit,
- And there is nothing to say.
- Who can distinguish the pure
- Amidst the impure?
- One day a monk came along, and, not knowing he was speaking to the master, asked Bokushu the way to the master's room.
- Bokushu took off his sandal and hit the monk on the head with it -- and the monk ran off.
- Then Bokushu called to him, "Osho!" and the monk turned his head.
- "That's the way to it," Bokushu said, pointing with his finger.
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, is not everyone on the way -- old friends and new -- whether we know it or not?
- Question 2
- Beloved Osho, do you call us "buddhas" -- as Bokushu called the monk in this story "Osho" -- to remind us of the way?
