While looking up Buddhism and Taoism stuff (one of the rare things in life that I take with a small bit of seriousness) I came across this lovely little tidbit:

"The Chinese word "Pu" is often translated as "the uncarved block," and refers to a state of pure potential which is the primordial condition of the mind before the arising of experience. The Taoist concept of Pu points to perception without prejudice, i.e. beyond dualistic distinctions such as right/wrong, good/bad, black/white, beautiful/ugly. It is a state of mental unity which places the Taoist practitioner into alignment with the Tao."

I like to imagine a bunch of robe-clad spiritualists trying hard not to giggle. 

Heehee, 'pu'.

I would've never thought of that cuz I look at "pu" and read '3' - pu. xD but it is hilarious.
