Zen master Roshu was visited by a university professor who had studied
Zen writings. The professor asked if it was true that the essence of Zen
was the statement "This mind is Buddha"? Roshu replied, "If I answer
yes, you will think you understand without understanding. If I answer
no, I will be denying something that many know to be true."
