He poured his visitor's cup full, and then kept on pouring.” “The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could restrain himself. ‘It is overfull. No more will go in!’" “’Like this cup,’ Nan-in said, ‘you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Zen unless you first empty your cup?’" Source: http://www.ashidakim.com/zenkoans/1acupoftea.html, accessed 2/27/2016 _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ __________
