72. The Blockhead Lord
Two Zen teachers, Daigu and Gudo, were invited to visit a lord. Upon
arriving, Gudo said to the lord: "You are wise by nature and have an
inborn ability to learn Zen."
"Nonsense," said Daigu. "Why do you flatter thi blockhead? He may be a
lord, but he doesn't know anything of Zen."
So, instead of building a temple for Gudo, the lord built it for Daigu
and studied Zen with him.
