A monk asked, "How should a beginner obtain an entry [into the Path]?"

The Master hit the lid of the tripod three times, and asked, "Do you hear?"
_
The monk said, "Yes, I do."
_
The Master asked, "How is it that I cannot hear?"
_
The Master then hit [the lid three times, and asked, "Do you hear?"
_
The monk said, "I don't."
_
The Master asked, "How is it that I can hear?"
_
The monk had no reply.
_
The Master said, "The power of Kuanyin's wisdom can save the world from suffering."
