- The sutras
- Once, Yakusan asked his disciple, Ungan, "What are you doing?"
- Ungan said, "I am carrying water."
- Yakusan asked, "What about that fellow?"
- Ungan replied, "He is here."
- Yakusan then asked, "For whom are you working?"
- Ungan replied, "I'm busy on behalf of that fellow."
- Yakusan asked, "Why don't you let that fellow work with you?"
- Ungan said, "Osho, don't make a fool of him!"
- Yakusan said, "Don't say that! Has he ever carried water?"
- Once, Yakusan said to Dogo -- Ungan's brother -- "I have a very special phrase, which I have never told anybody."
- Dogo observed: "It is already following you."
- On another occasion, Ungan asked Yakusan, "How do you express the phrase?"
- Yakusan said, "It is not a question of expression."
- Dogo commented, "Now, you have expressed it."
- Question 1
- Our beloved master, I have heard you say that Buddha said, "Truth is what works."
- I understand that to mean that, when delivered by an enlightened master, truth is what works -- his truth is implicit in everything he says or does. Having no ego means that there is no motivation for anything other than the truth.
- I heard an old sannyasin say, "I don't exaggerate -- I lie like my master." It seems to me there is a fatal flaw in his words.
- Will you please speak about truth and trust?
