Moon * Fish * Ocean

Feb 02, 2008 20:41

Moon * Fish * Ocean is a Zen hand game for one, two, or three players. In the strictest Zen interpretation, the game is played by only one person, with one hand, as a koan (a paradoxical puzzle to trigger enlightenment).




* Ocean captures Moon’s reflection.
* Fish rule the Ocean.
* Moon’s gravitation (tide) irresistibly pulls Fish.

A less poetic, secular version of Moon * Fish * Ocean is popularly known as “Rock, Paper, Scissors.”

From here.
