The Sound of one Dog Barking

Human beings understand too much. But what they understand is just somebody's

  opinion. Like a dog barking. American dogs say, "Woof, woof." Korean dogs say,

  "Mung, mung." Polish dogs say, "How, how." So which dog barking is correct? This

  is human beings' barking, not dog barking. If dog and you become one hundred

  percent one, then you know sound of barking.

 

 

 

  This is Zen teaching.  Boom! Become one.
