About this listen

A young monk walks beside his elder through the hills of old Japan. They come to a stream where a woman stands at the water's edge, unable to cross. The elder monk lifts her without a word, carries her to the other side, sets her down, and continues walking. An hour passes in silence. The young monk's mind will not rest. Finally he speaks his objection. The elder's response has echoed through centuries of Zen teaching, pointing to a burden we all carry without knowing it.
