Two Monks and a Woman
A senior monk and a junior monk were traveling together. At one point, they came to a river with a strong current. As the monks were preparing to cross the river, they saw a very young and beautiful woman also attempting to cross. The young woman was unable to cross by herself and asked the monks if they could help her.
2024 is our Anniversary Year!
“ Those who are born first, guide those who come later, and those who are born later, join those who were born before them. This is so that the Boundless Ocean of birth-and-death may be exhausted.”
(In “Passages on the Land of Happiness”, by master Tao-ch’o [562-645])
