THE STORY BEHIND THIS TEE
Huineng was the Sixth Patriarch of Chan Buddhism, a seventh-century monk whose teachings, recorded in the Platform Sutra, shaped the direction Zen would take for the next thirteen hundred years. One of his most radical claims was this: from the beginning, not a single thing exists. It isn't a statement of nihilism. It's a teaching on emptiness, the idea that nothing has fixed, independent, permanent existence, including the self doing the looking.
Beneath it sits a much younger sentence. Your cart is empty. Four words an algorithm generates without any awareness of what it's saying, and yet read straight after Huineng, it sounds almost like agreement.
Two voices, thirteen centuries apart, reaching the same conclusion for entirely different reasons.
From the beginning, not a single thing exists.
