Guest guest Posted June 30, 2002 Report Share Posted June 30, 2002 There was an old woman in China who had supported a monk for over 20 years. She had built a hut for him and fed him while he was meditating on the Non-Dual. Finally she wondered just what progress he had made in all this time. To find out, she obtained the help of a girl rich in passion. "Go and embrace him," she told her, "and then ask him suddenly: `What now?'" The girl called upon the monk and without much ado caressed him, asking him what he was going to do about it. "An old tree grows on a cold rock in winter," replied the monk, "nowhere is there any warmth." The girl returned and related what he had said. "To think I fed that fellow for 20 years!" exclaimed the old woman. She at once went to the hut of the monk and burned it down. Comment: At least she had enough sense for that! What now?
