Monday Morning Meditation - The Phoenix and the Wolf
Yuanwu said:
My late teacher said that among those who serve as chief elders there are those who move people by enlightened virtue and those who make people obeidient by the power of authority. It is like the phoenix in flight, which all the animals like, or tigers and wolves stalking, which all the animals fear. As far as being moved and being obedient are concerned they are one, but the types are are as different from each other as the sky is from the earth.
I am inspired by and strive to learn from the phoenix.
