Get the mondo mug.Mondō / 問答
Japanese loan word from Zen Buddhist tradition roughly translated as "scripture-independent clarity, as taught by a profoundly illuminating teacher". Mondo also translates from Ido, Esperanto, and Italian as "world" or "planet".
Quotation from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia:
"A mondō (問答, Chinese: wèndá) is a recorded collection of dialogues between a pupil and a rōshi (a Zen Buddhist teacher). Zen tradition values direct experience and communication over scriptures. (Some teachers go so far as to instruct their pupils to tear up their scriptures.) However, sometimes the mondō acts as a guide on the method of instruction."
