Meditation Stories."People should thank ".
Seisetsu Engaku Temple at training, teachers need more rooms, because the teaching of the master was too cramped. Yoshijiro Seibei, a merchant in the Edo period, the decision to donate 500 gold coins, known as the broad market, he added. Umeza brings money to the teacher.

Seisetsu says: "Well at all. I'm going to get. "
Yoshijiro awarded the Golden shell for Seisetsu, but unhappy with the attitude of the teacher. A person can live a whole year with just 3 ryo, but the merchant does not receive all one, thank you.
"How it has 500 ryo," cleverly reminded Yoshijiro.
"He did tell me, then," Seisetsu answered.
"Although I was a wealthy merchant, 500 ryo is still a lot of money, '' Yoshijiro said.
"He wanted me to thank him?" Seisetsi asked.
"He should do so," answered Yoshijiro.
"Why should I thank you?" Seisetsu questions. "So thank you."
Comments:
• Seisetsu Genjo Seki or Seisetsu Genjyo Seki, (1877-1945), is the Forest, from the Zen master Hakuin So with that place. In the 1920s, the temple's Abbot Seisetsu Tenryu in July.
Temple of Engaku Temple in this story of great Forest is a International, and is one of the famous attractions in today's Japan. We spoke to the Engaku Temple Not water no moon about nuns Chiyono.
• Alms is a large practice in the Portuguese route.-slapping (Bodhisattva) has six branch offices across the River (green three-la-suite), i.e. six ways to practice ("happy") to reach enlightenment, in which alms is "first"-alms, Citadel's effort, called rings, meditation, wisdom. Give away what you have is the most obvious way to practice "egolessness" ("no"). • alms? My 4 paragraph Cang, Kim writes: "Bodhisattva for France should not have head that works such as alms to place-based alms, head of French youth exposed flavor to alms. The Tu-Bodhi, the bodhisattva should like that alms, head home to the Prime Minister. Because why? If the United States-instance the General head slapped Irene Bell Canada could not think exists. "

This sentence has a multi-tiered philosophy of l note deep, but simply speaking the way our life sentence may be understood as alms, e.g. such that requests to see his name in the list (SAC), or hear his name (), or the reputation of his illustrious (incense) , or to his glorious tastes (positioning), or touch his name engraved on the stone (in contact), or because of anything in the universe (France) .
Alms with a completely empty. Even taking French leaders as deliberate alms nor. Paragraph 14, Kim Cang wrote: "If the Portuguese-French place-based work that Bunting published it then start as people in the dark cannot see. If the Portuguese-French-based Center that was not slapped the alms is like having your eyes more sunlight illuminate, see the sled. " (Note: the alms does not because that martyrdom or the French and then, still don't. But countries that go beyond the "martyrdom" of this new bodhisattva enlightenment of truth). Alms natural as breathing. Alms natural as thirsty, drink water but not thinking anything. It is the Church's Bell.
• Naturally is alms that should thank as Yoshijiro is not recommended. And, of course, is a thank you not take what works for which the teacher Seisetsu could not say one, the fun for both villages. But, perhaps the teacher knows habitual Yoshijiro and deliberately silence to teach a lesson about Yoshijiro Dharma.
• But why did the teacher say "person should be thanking"?
Dear, because Bell is happy to bodhisattva, which want to practice this well it must be the recipient. If no recipients are not able to work the alms. Take money out hard off the desert is not alms. So, the person must be thanking the recipient created for himself an opportunity to be happy practice alms.
Note, the first sentence of the teacher say when Yoshijiro brings money into: "gracefully. I'm going to get. " That is, I'm for taking the opportunity to do alms.
• Should not see it as an ideological struggle between the two men, Yoshijiro and Zen master, to see who wins.
The majority of people in the us are like Yoshijiro, all want to thank the alms-not the thank you, but thanks to radio, TV, newspaper, the Internet is heading. Yoshijiro no one stranger than the ego of each of us.
But what we don't know, and teachers want to teach Seisetsu, is: "the person, to thank the recipient."
