Buddhist Humor

Oct 12, 2007 12:38

    Four monks were meditating in a monastery. All of a sudden the prayer flag on the roof started flapping.

    The younger monk came out of his meditation and said: "Flag is flapping"

    A more experienced monk said: "Wind is flapping"

    A third monk who had been there for more than 20 years said: "Mind is flapping."

    The fourth monk who was the eldest said, visibly annoyed: "Mouths are flapping!"

I found this on a site a friend had directed me to. It reminded me of a talk I had with the Sister at the temple I attended as a child. Where I was being instructed on not allowing thoughts like this to disturb my meditation. hehe. :D

buddhism, humor
