A monk named Huilang once asked Master Shitou, “What is the awakened one?”
_
The master said, “You don't have awakened mind.”
_
Huilang, dejected, said, “I'm just human. I know I run around and have all kinds of ideas.”
_
The master said, “Active people with ideas still have awakened mind.”
_
Huilang asked, “Then why don't I?”
_
The master said, “Because you're not satisfied to be just human.”
_
Huilang had a deep realization.
_
_
Human! Human!
Are you? Are you?
Get your hands off me you damn dirty ape!
Help me Dr. Zaius!
