I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with the "Buddhism in five easy pieces" format, though it is easily and frequently abused. Indeed, without the facility to examine subjects in byte-size pieces, none of us would be able to blog. The best I can do is to acknowledge the limitations of such an approach, and point people in the right direction for further study.

Hmm, nice idea, but I think the “face before you were born” in the poem and in the koan refer to different things. I think the variation on the koan is “what was your face before your parents were born?”

Of course, to separate the poem and the koan is dualistic thinking, ….
