Have you washed your dishes yet?
It comes from a book by Alan Watts. "The Way of Zen," or maybe,
Psychotherapy East and West." Published in 1957 and 1961 respectively.
Who even knows who he was today? Old Hippies?
The story went something like this:
A novice, meditating till dawn, sitting on a hillside, under the stars,
clouds passing, called the sacred syllable all night long.
Frustrated and tired, wondering why keep trying, doubting
he could ever find enlightenment, approached the Master.
"How can I ever learn the meaning of life?" he asked the Master.
The Master replied, "Have you washed your dishes yet?"
