Dharma Lecture by Master Wei Chueh

This is a narration done by me of Dharma Lecture by the Chan Master Wei Chueh

Unordinary in the Ordinary

Unordinary in the Ordinary
I n a meeting to prepare for setting up a meditation
center, a monk was sitting next to the Grand Master
and started to examine the Grand Master’s face carefully.
He thought in his mind, “The face of the Grand Master is
full of wrinkles, and from that he is no different from any
ordinary old man. Then why are these prestigious people
so respectful of him?”
After the meeting, when all the lay disciples had left, the
Grand Master talked to the monks and nuns, “No
conceptual thought in the awareness; awareness is
without attachment. When, through practice, one has
attained a very high level, in outward appearance he or
she will look just like any other ordinary person, but his
or her mind will be totally different. This is what we call
covering the illumination and being in harmony with the
ordinary.”

Chung Tai Koans - Upon Reflection

Upon Reflection

Acertain monk had the habit of wearing a sweater over
his shoulders with the sleeves tied in front. One day
the Grand Master was observed walking around the
monastery with a sweater wrapped around his shoulders in
exactly the same manner. Upon seeing the Grand Master’s
unusual appearance, the monks began discussing his
behavior with each other and wondered, “Why is the
Grand Master dressed like this? That is so strange!”
In the middle of this chattering, the monk walked in and
saw the Grand Master. Smiling to himself, the monk never
wore a sweater this way again.
