Man Up a Tree
Kyogen said, "It is like a person up a tall tree, hanging from a branch by his teeth; his hands can't grasp a bough; his feet won't reach one.. Under the tree there is another person who asks the meaning of Bodhidharma's coming from the West. If the person in the tree doesn't answer, he evades the problem; if he does answer, he will fall and lose his life."
