Zen

The more I get in touch with Zen, the less I have to say.

Popper

I am about to develop some hypotheses.
They concern the use of gravel by the Bauernbergpark-man and the use of flour. I think that both are somehow there to mark his territory or to protect him from something.
The gravel, as I may have mentioned before, is arranged in little circular heaps. They seem so regular when one compares them that I am led to believe that the man counts the tiny stones.
The flour is usually spread along the outer edge of the path. Recently there was a more complicated sign on the ground, also made with white flour. It looked like a sort of tic-tac-toe game. (see also Wikipedia) but sadly no one went there to make the second move.
How can I test my hypotheses.
Of course I can ask the man about it, but I still do not have the courage.
What does Popper say to people who do not have the heart to test their hypotheses. Hmm?
