You Ask, That's Your Mind. I Answer, That's My Mind.
The Drinking Gourd Podcast
Jay Chikyo Weik presents a talk and leads a discussion at the Toledo Zen Center on January 23rd, 2008.
"Everything that appears in the three realms comes from the mind, hence the Buddhas of the past and future teach mind to mind, without bothering about definitions."
"But if they don't define it, what do they mean by Mind?"
"You Ask, That's Your Mind. I Answer, That's My Mind..."
—Bodhidharma's Bloodstream Sermon.
