Please, make yourself comfortable and relax. Maybe some tea, maybe some music, maybe just some silence or the sound of a small waterfall.
Find a style that pleases you and relaxes you and set yourself free to wander.
Maybe you'll find a koan that makes you laugh, or think, or maybe, just maybe, you'll find the one that sets your mind free.
But in the meantime, enjoy yourself.

"Everything in my shop is the best," replied the butcher. "You cannot find here any piece of meat that is not the best.
So it is with these koans.
