Ah yes, Mr. Disandat negating his imagined negations again.
I never said there wasn't 'meaning', I was simply referring it back to
its source - AKA Pointing to the nature of this. I realize you may have
trouble grasping the obvious, so slice and reshuffle it so you can
manage countless births and deaths generated by remaining attached to
your precious/meaningful beliefs. You are in good company and can play
this Zen is/isn't game all you like with Bill! - and all the other
sentient beings you know - for eight million kalpas if you like.
Hell, If you keep believing you know what Zen is like a good Zennist,
maybe Pu Tai/Hotei will bring you presents on Buddha's birthday.
Why wait, here's one now. A classic:

KG,
Again, Zen is NOT Nihilism nor is it meaninglessness...
There is meaning, not necessarily in any one thing, but in the skein
of consistency of ALL things...
