the guru had a new idea: when he got a question he didn’t want to answer, he told the asker to donate to this school.
“guru, how can we become rich?”
“guru, how can we attain zen without effort?”
“guru, are you worried that the constant attempts to exhort more money out of your faithful followers and students will alienate them?”
“finally, a real question. my answer: i know it will, but i don’t care.”
