We say, “If you want to explain what water is, give him water, don’t speak about it. When you speak about it, it is not possible to explain what water is.” That kind of true experience, or reality, is not possible to talk about. In this sense, there is esoteric teaching. —Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-02-00-E - as found on shunryusuzuki.com edited by PF.
