Some schools, such as various Native American traditions, will assign various meanings to different images: wolf, eagle, etc.

Other schools, such as Zen Buddhism, will suggest that all images, thoughts, ideas, and feelings even are simply "mind stuff." They are things that float through the mind as you sit and bring awareness to your inner world.

Since in these schools meditation is all about awareness, about the witness, about the process of watching itself and being present to what is, whatever it is, no meaning is attached to the images. One simply watches: "aha, a wolf has appeared. Now it is gone. Now my mind is trying to figure out what this means. Is it good? Is it bad?" And so forth.

In Zen, one is simply concerned with noticing whatsoever is happening inside, because it is the *awareness* that is significant. The awareness brings light into one's life, brings godliness into one's life, brings delight.

If the word quane is understood to mean the same as the word den then the following sentence is grammatically correct Looking out from your quane you could see a wolf enter quane?

No, it is not. The sentence would read "Looking out from your den you could see a wolf enter den". The second usage of den/quane should have a "the" in front of it. "Looking out from your den you could see a wolf enter the den." "Looking out from your quane you could see a wolf enter the quane." These would be correct.
