basically,even though "knowing"can not be seperated from what is "known"(a mirror and the reflection),I think one can discern the two realities,I think our "original" face is knowing,and not what it is known.To me,all those meditations(koans etc..)to me zen is the study of the mind and not its contents(philosophy,science etc..)I am not the contents.

any thoughts ?
