"...what about acting independently of words and logic?"



NOTE: It's actually quite refreshing.

When one breaks wind ( ), color is generally not the focus of attention.

Seriously, when there is movement, it is one's thoughts that are arising and they can easily color all that one perceives (or thinks that one perceives).

NOTE: Keep in mind that there is no single approved answer to a koan.
