08 Feb Koans

Posted at 10:15h in Framework, Observations by

A koan is a paradoxical, nonsensical or logically challenging story, question, or statement to help us reflect, doubt and see beyond the everyday illusions created by our personal self and conventional thinking; to guide us along the way to awakening and enlightenment.

Ultimately, koans bring us to realize we know nothing, which is what every thing is before and after it is what it is whatever it is in the now.
