“Master, you are leaving us soon, what do you want us to remember?” – asked the disciples of a Zen master on his deathbed.
The master smiled, took a bite from his favorite cake and said:
“Ah, this cake is delicious.” And then he closed his eyes for the last time.
For a man who lives in the here and now, even death is irrelevant. The next moment is meaningless. This moment this cake is delicious.
