Empty Your Mind - story
once upon a time a professor went to a
zen master
he asked him to explain the meaning of
zen
the master quietly poured a cup of tea
the cup was full but he continued to
pour
the professor could not stand this any
longer so he questioned the master
impatiently
why do you keep pouring when the cup is
full
[Music]
i want to point out to you the master
said
that you are similarly attempting to
understand
zen while your mind is full first
empty your mind of preconceptions before
you attempt
to understand zen
if your mind is empty it is always ready
for anything
it is open to everything in the
beginner's mind
there are many possibilities in the
expert's mind
there are few
you see in life in your life
we all are full of preconceptions all
the time we are constantly judging
and trying to relate things actions
disasters
to one another but this is wrong
our mind must be empty
we should not have any preconceptions
and we should take every
event every word every feeling as what
it is keep an empty mind
and your heart will be always full
this is there to do motivation stories
