One day, a student asked their Zen master, "What is reality?"
The Zen master replied, "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"
The student was confused and said, "But that doesn't answer my question about reality."
The Zen master smiled and said, "Ah, but you see, the sound of one hand clapping is as real as your question about reality. Reality cannot be fully understood or expressed through words and concepts alone. It is something that must be experienced and realized in the present moment, beyond the limitations of our thoughts and beliefs."
