A Big Liar

A nice story about honesty.

Once, in the land of China, there was a disciple named Su Dong Bo parted ways with his teacher because he wanted to explore the science of spirituality. One day the students are writing letters to his teacher who lives across the river.
Teachers, students have been steeped in spiritual science. Now the student has not shaken by the shock of eight winds.
Now the students quiet and brave souls like a mountain, like a tranquil lake water and ... (etc. ..)
Eight wind in question is eight living conditions, namely:
praise and insult, the popularity and notoriety, prosperous and safe danger, blessing and calamity.
After reading the letter from the student, the teacher with a smile patiently replied to the students. Su Dong Bo is proud to open a letter from his teacher.
In a letter written just one word: Liar!
Su Dong Bo immediately fly off the handle, the teacher really insane, always so negative, like suspicion, prejudice, prejudice, I should immediately see a teacher, I encourage open debate, I'll prove that I'm not lying!
Su Dong Bo soon paddling the canoe across the river. Upon arrival he rushed across the river toward the convent teacher.
Just about to knock on the door of the convent, her hand held, a red face turned pale. Shame disappear arrogance changed. With head bowed, he walked slowly back to the sampan, rowed back to the feelings of extreme embarrassment.
What happened?
At the front door of the monastery a piece of paper stuck to his teacher:
Not shaken by the shock he said eight winds, only with a word Liar! have you already been hit and was thrown up across the river.
Truth is not just understanding. Understanding is only a concept and the concept is not the truth itself. The truth that life is an experience that must be directly inspired by and applied in everyday life behavior.
Talking is easy. When faced with the reality to practice all of our words, we are not necessarily ready. It is better if we're talking about in line with what we do.
