Koans

Zen Koan: What was the face you had before you were born?
What came before the Big Bang?

Zen Koan: What is the sound of one hand clapping?
What happened to the antimatter created when the universe was born?

Buddhist saying: Emptiness is form, form is emptiness.
Rutherford's discovery that 99% of an atom is space.
Alternatively, energy equals matter times the speed of light squared.

This is pretty heavy JB. Throw in relativity and things really get mind bending.

Always loved the sound of one hand clapping.

One answer to the one hand clapping I once read was "a fist". The protagonist was a martial artist.
