I just read up a bit on the origin of the title. Apparently Lin Chi, the founder of the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism, who lived in the ninth century, gave this advice (the advice to kill the Buddha on the road) to one of his monks. According to PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY, "Lin Chi . . .admonished him [the monk] that this Buddha would only be a relection of his unexamined beliefs and desires."
