Answer:

true.

Explanation:

A koan is a statement, in the form of a question, an anecdote, a story, or even a dialogue, aimed at awakening an epistemological and existential doubt in the student of zen that can lead to a higher form of comprehension of reality, and ultimately, enlightenment. A koan is often of a paradoxical nature, most commonly presenting rationally unsolvable matters regarding essential opposites that can lead to an identification of object and subject and pure consciousness.

Determine the main idea of lines 843-861 from beowulf by paraphrasing them
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

These are the lines that are found toward the end of the poem. Beowulf is already dead - he has defeated the dragon, but has also died in the process. Before his death, he instructed his men to build a tower in his honor, so this part of the poem talks about that. It talks about how the Geats made this monument for their late king, and how they grieved his death by telling his greatest accomplishments, like defeating Grendel and his mother. Then they hid the dragon's treasures in the tower, as per Beowulf's instructions, so that no one could ever find them.
