Prajna- Buddhist Monk stories

Prajna 

From "Entering the Tao of Sudden Enlightenment" by Ch'an Master Ta-Chu Hui-Hai
A monk once asked: "Is Prajna great?"
The Master answered: "Yes, it is."
The monk asked: "How great?"
The Master answered: "Boundless."
The monk asked: "Is Prajna small?"
The Master answered: "Yes, it is."
The monk asked: "How small?"
The Master answered: "So small you can't see it."
The monk asked: "Then where is it?"
The Master answered: "Where is it not?"
