- 소개/요약Science cannot help us understand or describe first-person experience. Zen koans are a powerful form for helping us reach that description.Koans are a keystone of Zen Buddhism. The practice of spending days, weeks, or even months contemplating a koan helps discipline and focus the mind. Physics gives a powerful account of the world from a third-person perspective. To understand pure experience, however, requires something more, and koans are a very useful means toward that end.
