Times Read: 736
One day Chuang Tzu and a friend were walking by a river.
"Look at the fish swimming about," said Chuang Tzu,
"They are really enjoying themselves."
"You are not a fish," replied the friend, so you can't truly know that they are enjoying themselves."
"You are not me," said Chuang Tzu. "So how do you know that I do not know that the fish are enjoying themselves?"

So interesting! I love zen stories!
Iata o alta povestire zen, pe care o postez ca raspuns:
Centimetru timp, metru nestemată
Un nobil i-a cerut lui Takuan, un învăţător de Zen, să-i sugereze cum să-şi petreacă timpul. Zilele i se păreau foarte lungi pe când îşi îndeplinea slujba şi şedea ţeapăn, primind omagiile celorlalţi.
Takuan a scris opt hieroglife chinezeşti şi i le-a înmânat:
“Ziua cea de azi nu va mai fi vreodată.
Preţul clipei este cât o nestemată.”
