> There's a story, probably apocryphal about this:

  Which reminds me of a non-Zen tale:

  A studen & master were walking.  They come to pass another 
student.  The master asks him "What meaning of Tao?"  The 
challenged student bats his eyes like a girl, giggles & skips 
away.  The student & master contine on their way, occasionally 
coming across other students & the master challengs each.  Each 
of the students, to the eyes of the student walking with the 
master, performs some silly act which seems to satisfy the 
master.

  Finally, the student asks, "Master, how is you are satisfied 
with the silly acts of these students?"

  The master replies "Satisfaction does not always come by way 
Tao, but sometimes by way of entertainment";-).
