The Gates of Heaven |
" The Gates of Heaven" There once was a general who ask the zen master Hakuin " Are there really such things as heaven and hell? " " What do you do for a living?" asked the Zen master " I'm a general.." he answered " Ha Ha Ha what idiot asked you to be his general? you look more like a pig farmer to me." the master stated " WHAT!!" cried the general, So angered by this the man ripped out his sword ready to kill the zen master. " I'll cut you to peaces!" " Here lie the gates of hell! " the master replied The general's eyes opened to the truth at that moment " Excuse me, please forgive my insolence." the general said bowing deeply. " Here lie the gates of heaven" the monk said bowing back. Sillylove
