Listen "Feb 15 2025 | One Finger Zen"
Episode Synopsis
#Post(s) in Question Post: https://old.reddit.com/r/zen/comments/1io3ped/from_the_famous_cases_treasuryone_finger_zen/ Link to all episodes: https://sites.libsyn.com/407831 # What did we talk about? It's not "boy" or "teenager" or "greeter". It's Personal Assitant to a Zen Master. It's not "arm" or "forearm" or "hand" or even "whole finger". With these translations we have multiple problems: 1. logistical problem, chopping off with what? gotten where? with what medical emergency? 2. language problem, when does the word for arm-forearm-hand-finger-tip get distinguished in cultures? 3. culture problem, if everyone knows about cutting off a fingertip and everyone knows people who are missing a tip of a finger, why would anybody read it any other way? #You can be on the podcast!
