If a tree falls...

Ninja Koans: Some Koans take the form of questions, like the one that asks, "If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear, does it make a sound?" There is no "right" answer to this question. It can be argued for years from either perspective, yes or no. BUT, to the Ninja there is at least one other answer. It matters not at all whether the tree makes a sound or not. What is important is that it has fallen.

Some of the fallen are rescued from the forest and they pass surrounded by love.

Some of them simply disappear into that same, legendary forest.
