# What did we talk about?
Bright and dark: jewel and mirror.
Lanka and Platform sutras have jewel in the tile? What??
The Zen Community AS A CHARACTER in koans
Enlightened head monk? No name, no victory, so no?
Touzi vs Zhaozhou... BUY MOR OIL
"Permission" to trust, doubt and skepticism...
Climbing a tower when the sign says DONT CLIMB THIS TOWER
Zhaozhou as class clown... even when he is 80.
Danger, doubt, and mental health.
