synopsis
Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
The sutra
A certain man decided that he would seek the perfect master.
He read many books, visited sage after sage, listened, discussed and practised, but he always found himself doubting or unsure.
After twenty years he met a man whose every word and action corresponded with his idea of the totally realized man.
The traveler lost no time. "You," he said, "seem to me to be the perfect master. If you are, my journey is at an end."
"I am, indeed, described by that name," said the master.
"Then, I beg of you, accept me as a disciple."
"That," said the master, "I cannot do for while you may desire the perfect master, he, in turn, requires only the perfect pupil."
