24. Search for Enlightenment

It has been written that One day after trudging a long way through the hot, brilliant sun, Notire Basura came upon a cool shady forest glen where a group of monks was busily turning over stones, peering underneath, then leaving small messages scribbled on bits of parchment beneath the stones as they replaced them. 

"What are you doing,? " Notire asked one of the monks. 

"We are searching for enlightenment," the monk replied. " We think it may be hidden here somewhere." 

"But," asked Notire, " Why are you not conducting your search out in the bright light of the sun? Are you not more likely to find it there?" 

"Perhaps," shrugged the monk, " but this shady forest glade is a much more pleasant place to search." 

Notire returned to his journey, enlightened.


"The Sayings of Notire Basura" is a work in progress.  As Notire provides inspiration so
will his words will be written here.
