01/03/18 Grif.Net - A Little Zen for the New Year

[Robert Griffin]

Sent a Buddhist friend a Christmas present (ironic, eh?) nicely giftwrapped. He opened it and found it was empty and said, “Aha! Just what I wanted.”

 

A Zen master told me, “Do the opposite of what I tell you.” So I didn’t.

 

At the pizza place there is a chef from India.  With a smile and wink, I ordered “One with everything.”  I gave him $20 and asked for the change. He said, “Sorry. Change comes from within.”

 

I emailed a friend in China and asked if was okay for Buddhists to use email.  He replied, “Yes, but with no attachments.”

 

Trying to be diverse, our county hired a Buddhist coroner.  Sadly, he got fired for always marking the cause of death as “birth.”
