Reaching the Fundamental Ground

Since the fundamental ground is neither a feature of the world nor a transmundane phenomenon, many people who want to practice Zen wonder how it can be reached. This question itself, however, indicates a failure to digest the implications of the term fundamental.

This sums up the crux of a meaningful koan for us today.  How we get there is truly up to each one of us, and each person has their own unique pathway.
