Inspired by the "Ten Oxen" used in the Zen tradition, The Ten Oxen of Ours tries to manifest Zen practices through stage performance art. The whole play uses the motif of "Ox" and the metaphor of cattle herding to represent the different stages of spiritual enlightenment on the journey to seek the meaning of life.  In this sense, everyone has an "Ox" as their inner self or perhaps as the things they pursue. People, regardless of the past or the present, have similar experiences in terms of seeking and inquiring. In the play, the actors share their own stories as Hong Kong youngsters with the "Ox" in their heart. While they express their quest for their life goals, their spiritual maps are displayed via various artistic elements, reflecting the diversity of the pathway of life.
