I get tired of the old koans, here is a new one:
Transmited Zen Teacher (TZT): Bla Bla Bla(say some things that show a lack of effort or interest) could you do this thing for me I am trying to promote myself and I could use some free help. Oh and I have this other famous guy visiting, you should visit too.
Zen Nobody (ZN): [Thinking]Wow, you got the facts about my life wrong. It would be pretty easy to get correct if you were even paying the slightest attention. I feel kind of bad for you sucking so much so I’ll help you out even though I don’t think I like you or what you do. I really want to be polite.
TZT: Thanks for posting that. I saw your comment.
Well, okay. But I think you need to free your mind about what is and is not possible in practice and through Sangha.
Anyway, thank you again,
Gassho, TZT
ZN: Were is my mind?
TZT: Look in the glove compartment
ZN: You suck at Zen.

If someone told me I sucked at zen, I might fall off my zafu laughing.. Nothing is funnier than the truth.
Lauren,
Thanks for your empathy.
Anonymous,
I appreciate laughter. You also suck at Zen.
