Does anyone know actually and factually what the source of the tiger/strawberry parable is? (Man hanging from cliff being chased by a
tiger spots strawberry--Oooooh so sweet) I've seen it attributed to
Buddha but somehow it doesn't seem like his style. Of course it's also
called a Zen koan and a parable. I know it was retold in Zen Flesh Zen
Bones but I'm looking for its origin. (yes, I know, looking a
strawberry in the mouth....) Thanks for any help.
