Answer from Master Kosen
On one hand, people like making categories, as my master said. At the same time, they want to compare anything with anything.
Yes, it is the same!
No, it is not the same.
Are an oak and a willow the same?
Yes, they are the same; no, they are not the same.
But you have touched neither the oak nor the willow.
