A monk asked Zhaozhou, "What is Buddha?"
Zhaozhou answered, "Go drink tea!"
The monk asked, "What is Dharma?"
The master replied, "Go drink tea!"
The monk, still thirsty, persisted, "What is Sangha?"
Zhaozhou, with remarkable patience, said once again, "Go drink tea!"
Commentary
When thinking appears, it's very hard to quench our thirst. When we're not thinking, it's very easy. Every day I drink Bamboo Mountain Oolong. Even so, I've never reached the summit.
