  • One Finger Zen

    Appreciating the dangers of imitation:
    One Finger Zen

    Gutei raised his finger whenever he was asked a question about Zen. A boy attendant began to imitate him in this way. When anyone asked the boy what his master had preached about, he would raise his finger.

    Gutei heard about the boy's mischief. He seized and cut off his finger. The boy cried and ran away. Gutei called and stopped him. When the boy turned his head to Gutei, Gutei raised up his one finger. In that instant the boy was enlightened.[34]

      As a theoretical astrophysicist, I live in a world of abstract ideas, mathematical argument, and objective data from repeatable experiences - head knowledge. As a lover of Jungian psychology and mysticism, I live in a world of particular experiences and feelings rather than abstract ideas - heart knowledge. Meaningful stories, not mathematical analysis, move my inner world. Unlike scientific experiments, such stories are unique descriptions of unrepeatable events, the bane of science.
