Zen story

Nan-in, a Japanese master during the Meiji era received a university professor who came to inquire about Zen. Nan-in served tea. He poured his visitor's cup full, and then kept on pouring.

The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could retain himself. It is overfull. No more will go in !

Like this cup Nan in said, you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup. -- From Book Zen Flesh Zen Bones.

While posting this I heard that bomb blast took place in Pune -- My dear politicians keep on fighting in each other - Keep police force busy in publishing the movies.
