- The sutra
- When Tosu was in Tojo province, Joshu asked him, "Aren't you the master of Tosu hermitage?"
- Tosu said, "Give me some tea, salt, and cash!"
- Joshu went back to the hermitage, and that evening saw Tosu coming back with some oil. Joshu said to him, "I heard much of Tosu, but all I find is an old man selling oil."
- Tosu said, "You see the old oil-seller, but you don't know Tosu."
- Joshu said, "Well, how about Tosu?"
- Tosu held up the bottle and said, "Oil! Oil!"
- At the funeral of one of his monks, Joshu joined in the procession and commented, "What a long procession of dead bodies follows in the wake of a single living person!"
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, we were told that our total participation in the yaa-hoo is needed for your work on us. Is it that a crescendo of sound in the yaa-hoo, and the intense experience of silence in the last stage of meditation, lead to exactly the same space --F the "sea of consciousness"?
