( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
A thirsty monk who went to the owner of a restaurant and asked her: "If I can inspire you with a Buddhist Teaching, will you give me a glass of water?", to which the pious Buddhist restaurateur eagerly said: "Yes".

With confidence that he (the monk) would earn his lunch, the monk solemnly quoted the Heart Sutta: "Form is emptiness. Emptiness is form".

"Wonderful! Marvelous! How profound!" exalted the woman. "Please monk, wait here a moment".

The thirsty monks' throat was already gulping as the woman brought an big glass from the kitchen covered with a lid. "Sit down, Venerable Sir. Here's your glass of water said the woman.

Then she placed the heavy glass before the expectant monk, removed the lid and reveal an empty form. "If form is emptiness and emptiness is form", said the woman, "Then, Venerable Sir, Drink emptiness!".

all..

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
