Master of the 8 winds..
#1
A chinese offical and zen student wrote a poem indicating he was free of the eight winds of the world (prosperity, decline, disgrace, honor, praise, censure, suffering and pleasure) that drive ordinary people from pillar to post. He sent the poem across the river to his zen master. The master took his brush and wrote one word, "Fart", on it and sent it back.
The official was quite disturbed by this and immediately crossed the river for an apology The master said, "It is admirable that you have conquered the eight winds. But how is it that a single fart blew you across the river?".

Is there a value in deception ? I say No loudly
Is there value in getting further ? I say Yes Proudly!

These tales are mere reflection of the reflectioning these "gurus" gains.
There is no value in them, even they seem to be really! really "silencing"
the truth is there is no value in decepting someone, the only value is in uplifting someone.

Farts, Vomits and Cocks doesnt exist, try something new,something more valuable like Fire Water and Earth ?
What is our connection with earth in this particular story if we take our ancestorship in true value...
I see no earth stumbled upon with a roar of warrior on this, except single "bluagh!" of a frog that steps through any.
