Post subject:  The Monk & The Master

A monk was sitting in meditation.

The master came along and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm meditating to become a Buddha."

The master picked up a brick and started polishing it, rubbing it.

"What are you doing?" asked the monk.

"I'm rubbing this brick to make it into a mirror."

"With no amount of rubbing could you ever make a brick into a mirror," said the monk.

And the master replied, "By no amount of Zazen could you become a Buddha."
