Yes, I Speak Zen
A visiting Zen student asked Ajahn Chah, “How old are you? Do you live here all year round?”
“I live nowhere,” he replied. “There is no place yu can find me. I have no age. To have age, you must exist, and to think you exist is already a problem. Don’t make problems; then the world has none either. Don’t make a self. There’s nothing more to say.”
Perhaps the Zen student glimpsed that the heart of vipassana is no different from the heart of Zen.
