A Story from Justin
A monk asked the great Chinese Ch’an (Zen) Teacher, “Where will you go when you die?”
“Straight to Hell!” was the unexpected answer.
Surprised, the monk pressed on, “Why would you, a great Ch’an teacher, go to Hell?”
“If I didn’t go there, who would be there to teach you?” was the Master’s reply.
