Echo

Student B: Docho Roshi, although you can only clarify an outline, and we can only hear what we realize, please say something about echo.
(after estabishing that the question refers to echo and not eko which are recited after sutra)
SR: Mm-hmm. Oh, echo. Echo, oh. Everything is echo of your mind or of your activity.
