The Three Barriers
Anecdotes
oi-Staff
By Staff
Tosotsu's teachings were thus :
Of
the
three
barriers,
the
first
barrier
is
studying
Zen.
The
objective
of
studying
Zen
is
to
see
one's
true
nature.
Now
where
is
your
true
nature?
The second is that when one realizes his true nature, he will be free of birth and death. Now how can you free yourself when you shut the light from your eyes and becom a corpse?
Thirdly
when
you
are
free
of
birth
and
death,
you
should
know
where
you
are.
Now
when
the
body
dissolves
into
the
elements,
where
are
you?
