Martial Arts Quote Week # 9
“Finger pointing to the moon…”
Hotei
Zen Monk
Note:
Buddhism unlike Christianity and Islam doesn’t have a written doctrine. They don’t attach much value to words and deductive logic. The
finger in this proverb here are the words, the moon is the truth or reality. Don’t accept the finger as the moon or you will be misguided in
finding the truth or reality. If you accept the finger as truth there is were doctrines, half-truth’s and dogmas are born. Look beyond the
finger or you miss its heavenly glory. A famous quote of Bruce Lee in his film “Enter the Dragon”
