"No, no, no." said the second Bikkhu.
"As any fool can tell, it is the pennant
that is in motion."
"But you are entirely wrong,"
insisted the first Bikkhu,
who was getting a little irate.
"It is the wind that is moving.
I can feel it."
"Nevertheless," replied the second Bikkhu,
"all you need do is look and you can tell
that the motion comes from the pennant."
For several minutes the argument
continued along these lines, with each man
insisting he was right. Finally, the third Bikkhu
-- who had been silent all during this dialogue
-- spoke up.
"Dear friends! I am afraid
you are both mistaken," he said gently.
"what actually is moving
is your own mind."
