Regarding a lost Transmission

Wakuan complained when he saw a picture of bearded Bodhidharma:
''Why hasn't that fellow a beard?''

One should not discuss a dream
In front of a simpleton.
Why has Bodhidharma no beard?
What an absurd question!
 
from ''ZEN FLESH, ZEN BONES'', compiled by Paul Reps 


Sensei's comment: 

For a photograph from one Michael to another,
I stayed Wakuan.
