Resumo

I want to share my life's koan with you: What is the sound of liberating truth? Perhaps one might answer, The rumble of the stone rolled from Jesus' tomb as God's Anointed One is resurrected from the dead. Or another might say, It is the formal, but celebrative, announcement by priest or minister, This is the body of Christ given for you for the remission of sin. Or it is the repetition of a carefully intoned mantra, like Gate, gate, pdragata, p2rasatmgate, bodhi svaha. Or it is a joyful, reverential murmur of thanksgiving, Namu Amida Butsu. Or the Lion's roar of silence!
