Zen website and Koans

JohnMac

I hope this is the right place to put this, I found a very helpful website

http://www.heartofmeditation.com/index.html

Which has a link to several free e books, which I have downloaded and I am presently reading.

Cool thanks, I've never heard of a website with one line answers to koans.

The answers do make a lot if sense. I'll have a look at the website.

The e books are very good

The Great God Google will cough up numerous sites promising "koans and their answers." Imagining koans have an "answer" is a major mistake for anyone who takes practice seriously. You can't bullshit the universe.

Just a starting point, I thought. Maybe not.

Sounds like a plan ...

The site is wonderful. Anything with comic heroes is comprehensible for me . . .

OK, I only like it because of the pictures. Found out.

Ha! My teacher once said "I could tell you all the answers to all the koans, but that still won't help you answer them!"

LOL
