If you take up a koan and investigate it unceasingly, your mind will die and your will will be destroyed. It is as though a vast, empty abyss lay before you, with no place to set your hands and feet. You face death and your bosom feels as though it were fire. Then suddenly you are one with the koan, and body and mind are cast off. . . . This is known as seeing into one's nature.
- Hakuin
Zen it up, man! Keep on Zenning!
