CASE 29 FENGXUE’S “IRON OX” THE GREEN DRAGON CAVE Case 29 Have you seen the dragon at Green Gulch Farm? You go there to study about koans, to listen to the teacher, to take notes sitting quietly in your chair. Then slowly you realize you are in the Dragon Cave and there is no escape! The room is hot and airless. Try to breathe and you are asked to speak without knowing anything, to act when there are no rules, to open your Dharma Eye now and see reality directly. This little temple in an old barn becomes the Buddha Mind Seal, becomes an iron bull, the red room, a huge golden fish, and the very mind of the ancient sages.
Holding on won’t do, Letting go won’t do, How is it then, in the Green Dragon Cave? Ninen CASE 30 DASUI’S “AEONIC FIRE” here at the end of an aeon, the fires are raging going along with it I am totally responsible for the burning Sarah Emerson Case 29
