Guest guest Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 A young but earnest Zen nstudent approached his teacher, and asked the Zen Master " If I work very hard and diligent how long will it take for me to find Zen " The Master thought about this, then replied, " Ten Years " The student then said, " But what if I work very, very hard and really apply myself to learn fast- How long then? " Replied the Master, " Well, twenty years " " But, if I really, really work at it. How long then? " asked the student. " Thirty years, " replied the Master " But I do not understand, " said the disappointed student. " At each time that I say I will work harder, you say it will take longer. Why do you say that? " Replied the Master, " When you have one eye on the goal, you only have one eye on the path " Jai Sai Ram Swamy Mahadevan Bow to Shri Sai-Peace be t5o all Baba Bless you ever!!!
