Today, I read a zen story in the Kannadaprabha, and thought of sharing it with you.
That's it!
What does the story tell you?
What's its moral? Forget the moral of it, tell me what do you think of his action?
[Note: The author (Mr. Nazim Hikmet) has listed some of the opinions shared by people who heard it, in the story. If you come up with same views, then its a coincidence!]

A Zen Guru had immersed himself in studies, and deep meditation for many, many years. After a very long spell of it, spanning over a decade or so, he felt he had attained Realization. He got up, took out his collection of precious books, made a bonfire of them!
That's it!
What does the story tell you?
What's its moral? Forget the moral of it, tell me what do you think of his action?
