As for the concept of subjectivity, the self-depreciation style of the culture of clown belittles the Zen subjectivity as a clown rather than a hero. The anti-ethics tendency in the culture of clown also facilitates the ethics concept of the excoriation of the Buddha.The behavior of Zen: The vulgarity in the culture of clown makes the refined language of Zen become rustic speech.. The derisive feature in the culture of clown changes the solemn language of Zen to humorous one. The comical resorts of the clown body signs clown the behavior of Zen.
