The zen feeling

George had a lot of problems in this life. He found a monk 60km away who could solve his problems. He drove down to the monastery. The monk listened to him. He talked about his problems until evening. The monk gave him some advice. George complained it did not solve all the problems. The monk asked, since it was dark, how he was going to go back. Thinking it was a trick question, he answered — “I have a car which has headlights.”

The monk asked, “Your headlights cannot shine 60 km from 60km away.”

George said, “I only need to see a few feet. I will see a few feet ahead when I get there.”

The monk said, “My answers are the headlights. You will see — and you will see further once you reach there.” — Source
