Socialism is a judas (Communism & Zen Fire, Zen Wind - 05)
OUR BELOVED MASTER,
On one occasion, a monk asked master Dogo: “Even if there is no cloud for thousands of miles, it is not yet the original sky. What is the original sky?”
Dogo replied, “Today, it is good to dry wheat.”
On another occasion, Dogo was asked by another monk, “What is the deepest?”
Dogo came down from his seat, made obeisance in the manner of women and said, “You have come from far, and I have no answer for you.”
At another time, Sekiso Keisho asked Dogo, “After a hundred years, if someone asks about the absolute meaning of the universe, what shall I say to him?”
Dogo called the boy attendant, who came, and told him to fill up the water bottle. Dogo waited a while, and then said to Sekiso, “What was it you asked just now?”
Sekiso repeated the question. Dogo thereupon went back to his room, and at this, Sekiso became enlightened.
