What miracle had Rinzai done? The disciple said, “When he felt hungry he ate and when he felt sleepy he slept. That’s the only miracle that he did.”  (...) You are always fighting. When you feel hungry you don’t eat because a thousand and one other things have to be done; when you don’t feel hungry you eat because now is the time to eat. When you feel sleepy you avoid it because there is a dance worth going to, or a movie worth seeing. When you feel sleepy you are sitting in the movie. When you don’t feel sleepy, because the movie has excited you too much, now you try to go to sleep and you have to take tranquilizers.
