mu

[Steven]

	In the koan, the interpretation of Mu (nothingness?) isn't 'no' so  
much as a critique of the question itself.  The answer tells the  
seeker that he isn't getting closer to satori with that question.   
That it's not a useful direction of inquiry.  I'm thinking this is  
from D. T. Suzuki.

	Steve the Enlightened--who shares P's fondness for dogs -- of course  
they share in the Buddha nature!
