Zen koan of the day - 100 Foot Pole

100 Foot Pole

Master Sekiso said,

You are at the top of the 100 foot high pole. How will you make a step further?

Another Zen Master said:

One who sits on top of the 100 foot pole has not quite attained true enlightenment.
Make another step forward from the top of the pole and throw one's own body into the 100,000 universes.

dcj commentary: The next step isn't the same as the last step when you have run out of steps .
