Zhaozhou's Stone Bridge
Zhaozhou Yulu
Text
A monk said to Zhaozhou, "The stone bridge of Zhaozhou is famous far and wide, but coming here I find only a simple log bridge." Zhaozhou said, "You see only the log bridge. You do not see the stone bridge." The monk asked, "What is the stone bridge?" Zhaozhou said, "Horses cross, donkeys cross."
