"..........A monk asked Joshu, "Opening the mouth is doing something, what is  
doing nothing?"
 
Joshu pointed to his hand resting on the arm of the chair and said, "This is  
doing nothing."
 
The monk said, "That is doing something, what is doing nothing?"
 
Joshu said, "Doing nothing."
 
The monk said, "That is doing something."
 
Joshu said, "It is doing something."

Indeed, even illusions are "not nothing" in the ultimate sense, they are  
something.  
 
It is easy to find a "something" that represents "nothing"--the mathematical  
representation of the "empty set".
 
But what is a "nothing" that represents "something"?
 
What a great party game!
