Thousands of miles away in the south, a white-robed monk came to an ancient temple. He clasped his hands and closed his eyes while chanting sutras. The young novice monk in the temple stopped the visitor and asked, "Where did the monk come from and why did he go there?"
The monk opened his eyes and said, "I came from a very far away place to worship the Buddha here."
The young novice scratched his head and said, "We don't have a Buddha here. The abbot said that the Buddha is in the Pure Land in the West. If you want to worship the Buddha, you have to go there."
The white-robed monk smiled happily when he heard this and said softly: "The Buddha is in his own mind and is not in the pure land of the Western Heaven."
The young novice wanted to retort, but was blocked by the monk's expression at this moment. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't speak, wondering how there could be such an outstanding monk.
