An old Zen Buddhist fable tells of a monk who travelled a great distance to study at the remote mountain monastery of the venerable master Chao-chou. The morning after his arrival, the monk got the opportunity to meet Chao-chou face-to-face.

“I am new at this monastery,” said the monk. “Please tell me, what is the key to the Buddha way?”
“Have you been served breakfast?” asked Chao-chou.
“Yes, I have,” replied the monk.
“Wash your bowl,” said Chao-chou. The monk understood.
