Reply #63: A blanket and an observation.

[westerebus]

A man and wife had gone to bed when a commotion outside their house disturbed them. The wife asked her husband to see what the problem was. It was a cold night so he wrapped himself in a blanket and went out. In a few minutes he returned without the blanket. What was all the fuss, asked the wife? Apparently, it was about the blanket,said the shivering husband.
A Sufi and a Taoist passed each other on a very busy road on market day. Neither acknowledged the other. Asked about his journey that evening,the Sufi said he had seen only one teacher on the road today. The Taoist answered he had only encounter one other seeker on the path today.
