Photo Essay: Koan Stones. "A stone can be cracked but not broken."





A stone can be cracked
but not broken.
Even when it is opened
it is still shut.







Put one stone on top of another.
Then another stone on top of that.
Then another one on top of that.
This is not wisdom;
it is piling up stones. 






A man picked up a stone.
He looked at it long enough
to know it could give him
everything.
Then he picked up another stone.
So he had nothing.
