A young pilgrim, who was said eroded by doubts, came to a monastery to talk to a Zen master, known for his enlightening teachings.
"" Say, what are you looking? " welcomed him with these words the master.
"Well, really I do not know ... I mean ... of course I would be happy, like everyone else ... but ... I do not know how"
"And if you think you'd be happy and you do not start to be, really? "
On hearing this, the pilgrim thought to have attained enlightenment and he decided to stay in the monastery.
The next day, however, had changed his mind and went.
