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?

Thanks!
