Zen Language in Our Time: The Case of Pojo Chinul's Huatou Meditation
Abstract
Zen philosophy of language is discussed by exploring the concepts of live anddeadwords,involvement with meaningand involvement with words, and the three mysterious gates as they are employed in Pojo Chinul's huatou meditation. A comparison is made betweenthe Zenuse of language and Merleau-Ponty's philosophy of visibility, Julia Kristeva's idea of the semiotic and the symbolic, and Kierkegaard's concept of anxiety, in an attempt to provide a paradigm to understand the Zen Buddhist vision.

These more salutary dimensions of prīti can sometimes be overshadowed by rather less delightful experiences, including strange involuntary movements, pronounced trembling, intermittent jerking or creeping goose-flesh, rocking or swaying that is very intense so that one is actually vibrating visibly to others, or even severe shaking.
“These include 'strange involuntary movements, for example a pronounced trembling, intermittent jerking or creeping goose-flesh' , 21 'rocking or swaying [that is. . .] very intense so that you are actually vibrating to the point where it is visible to others' (Brasington 2015, 43) or even 'severe shaking' . 22”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
