Shundo David Haye – Zen Priest

When visiting Master Sekito Kisen, Master Go-ei Reimoku asked: “If even a single word of yours is agreeable to me, I will stay here. If it is not agreeable, I will leave.”
Master Sekito did not respond at all.

Master Reimoku left swinging his long sleeves. After going out, he arrived at the temple gate.
The Master called out to him, saying: “Acarya!”
Master Reimoku turned his head.
Master Sekito said: “From birth to death it is just this! Will you accomplish something by turning your head or by churning your brain?”
There and then, Master Reimoku experienced the truth. (Shinji Shobogenzo)

I will probably use this story in my talk at Zen Center tonight.
