The sutras
A non-Buddhist scholar, meeting master Daizui, gave him a bowl. A monk observing this asked Daizui, "What did you use before he presented you with the bowl?"
Daizui said, "I used the one I shall use on my last day on earth."
Once, Daizui was asked, "When all things are annihilated, will that also be annihilated?"
"It will be annihilated," said Daizui.
On another occasion, a monk asked Daizui, "I am told that at the end of the universe a great fire takes place and everything is destroyed. May I ask you whether or not this also shares that fate?"
Daizui replied, "Yes, it does."
The monk went on, "If that is the case, it must be said that this follows others."
Daizui said, "Yes, it does."
The same question was later asked of another master whose name was Shu.
He answered, "No, this does not follow others."
When he was asked "Why not?" the master replied, "Because it identifies itself with the whole universe."


Question 1
Beloved Zorba the Buddha, you address us as "my beloved friends." Can we really be your friends or do you call us such out of your generosity of heart?
