Siska,
Some eat beef tongue, and others eat pickled pig tongue.
Knowing is identifying and recognizing, when it comes to sensing. Granted, I
use it as a "technical term", here, of the body, or of body-mind.
Now, what about that "Chinese"? The word for knowing in the Huang-bo and in
the Platform Sutra? I wonder if you've had a look at that yet, please. Very
interested to "know" your translation. Just for interest, of course. Not
because it affects or changes our practice. It's for our conversation.
Thanks!
With Greeting from the desert,
