The etymological origin of the word KŌAN is derived from Japanese: kō, public + an, proposition. A kōan is a question or statement used in Zen Buddhist teaching to help liberate students from their rigid, restrictive ways of viewing themselves and the world around them. A kōan is not a a riddle or problem to be solved. Kōans are not about wit or cleverness. Kōans are about life and death, about our deepest question and concerns in the here and now. A kōan directs us to see the world as it is, where nothing is superfluous, nothing is separate.

“What you end up remembering isn't always the same as what you have witnessed.” -Julian Barnes

“When we wish to correct with advantage, and to show another that he errs, we must notice from what side he views the matter, for on that side it is usually true, and admit that truth to him, but reveal to him the side on which it is false.

“Great poetry is always written by somebody straining to go beyond what he can do.” - Stephen Spender
