A man in Japan wanted for his entire life to realize the truth about who he is.
When he was already middle-aged, he mounted a horse and went from one Master
to another, in search of that truth. He’d seen many Masters and none of them could
reveal to him the truth. He finally came to a Master who many claimed would give
him what he was searching for.
“What are you searching for?”, the Master asked him.
“I’m searching for the truth about who I am,” the man answered.
“But why aren’t you searching for a horse?”
“A horse?” the man was mystified. “I already have a horse.”
“Oh, I see…”, the Master said, turned around and entered his hut.
