. Nyogen Senzaki - The Gateless Gate: A Buffalo Pa**es Through the Enclosure lyrics

37. A Buffalo Pa**es Through the Enclosure Goso said: "When a buffalo goes out of his enclosure to the edge of the abyss, his horns and his head and his hoofs all pa** through, but why can't the tail also pa**?" Mumon's comment: If anyone can open one eye at this point and say a word of Zen, he is qualified to repay the four gratifications, and, not only that, he can save all sentient beings under him. But if he cannot say such a word of true Zen, he should turn back to his tail. If the buffalo runs, he will fall into the trench; If he returns, he will be butchered. That little tail Is a very strange thing.
