I think so, he was into "don't know know mind" right? He liked to hit people with sticks, the pain/confusion you felt when getting whacked by a stick out of the blue was your "don't know mind", if you could stay in that space, or go back to it at will, you are close.
He also was fond of saying buddha was everything and nothing, buddha is shit on a stick. I like this thought. It's kept me interested in this way of looking at life.
