| Master
waits
for
right
Moment
There
was
once
a
Zen
Master,
and
He
had
a
young
disciple-
a
small
boy-
may
be
eight
or
10
years
old.
And
this
boy
was
very
naughty-
like
all
young
boys-
but
he
was
also
a
disciple.
He
used
to
imitate
the
Master.
While
speaking,
the
Master
used
to
point
His
finger
towards
the
sky.
Every
day,
before
the
Master
arrived,
this
boy
would
imitate
the
Master,
making
the
gesture
with
his
finger.
It
was
his
daily
routine.
He
would
keep
entertaining
the
other
disciples,
who
enjoyed
the
show.
The
Master
knew
all
of
this,
but
He
Kept
quiet.
But
one
day,
the
Master
brought
a
knife
with
him.
He
came
very
silently,
nobody
noticed.
He
came
from
behind.
And
as
the
boy
was
imitating
the
Master,
the
Master
crept
up
from
behind
and
suddenly
cut
off
the
boy’s
finger!
And
the
story
says,
at
that
very
moment,
the
boy,
the
small
boy,
became
enlightened!
Only
Love
can
dare
to
do
this.
And
it
waits
for
the
right
moment.
It
is
not
done
through
the
intellect,
it
is
not
that
one
pre-decides
or
plans!
No,
not
at
all.
It
is
a
pure
happening.
At
the
right
moment,
it
happens!

has
ever
Happened"
