“Disciple: Master, I'm tired now, I've given up enlightenment, I've failed, I'm leaving the temple and going my own way, I'm going on my own long journey, please don't be mad at me! Master: This is how enlightenment begins! When you start to go your own way by leaving the path given to you and to progress and develop under the guidance of your own mind, enlightenment has also started, I am not angry with you, quite the opposite!”
