About hanging gongs:
While theses days Zen is considered a largely Japanese discipline, it actually originated in China. In Chinese temples hanging gongs are struck 108 times as it is said that sentient beings have 108 types of worries. The teaching is that "upon hearing the gong, worries will cease, wisdom will grow."
