Pai-Chang

From the first part of this reading I got that Buddhism is not something that will just come to you after reading a few verses but to learn you will have to open up your mind and let the meaning come to you. Just showing how vast the Buddhist religion really is, and how focused one person would have to be to really attain even a diminutive sample of it. Another strong point of this short story was in the part where is states that after enlightenment you are still the same as you were before and that you are simply free from unreality and delusion. Once you reach enlightenment your mind is set free and in my mind that is what we all need to be happy.
