33. This Mind Is Not Buddha

A monk asked Baso: "What is Buddha?"

Baso said: "This mind is not Buddha."

"Mumon's comment:" If anyone understands this, he is a graduate of Zen.

If you meet a fencing-master on the road, you may give him your sword,

If you meet a poet, you may offer him your poem.

When you meet others, say only a part of what you intend.

Never give the whole thing at once.
