Fonz Koan

A master stood attending to his business when a young disciple came and asked him how he could reach enlightenment.
The master replied "Aaaayyyyyy."

A koan is often a paradoxical phrase or story that is supposed to point the reader in the direction of spiritual enlightenment. Many of them have a form where a disciple asks a master a question, and the master replies in an unexpected and often incomprehensible way.

The Fonz is the ice-cool leather jacketed star of 70's sit-com Happy Days. His catchphrase was "Aaaayyyyyy."

Once was Fonz spoken to by a lesser light, who said unto him, "Great one, it is said that, when upon the wheel of samsara, one may be returned to life as any earthly or unearthly creature. Foreasmuch as cattle may be inhabited by the spirit of a seeker for enlightement, is it, therefore proper or improper to don a garment of their skin."

Fonz did reply to the lesser light, "Exactamundo."
