The Great Treasure

When Dae Ju first came to Zen Master Ma-jo, the Master asked him, "What do you want from me?"

Dae Ju said, "I want you to teach me the Dharma."

"What a fool you are!" said Ma-jo. "You have the greatest treasure in the world within you, and yet you go around asking other people for help. What good is this? I have nothing to give you."

Dae Ju bowed and said, "Please, Master, tell me what this treasure is."

Ma-jo said, "Where is your question coming from? This is your treasure. It is precisely what is making you ask the question at this very moment. Everything is stored in this precious treasure-house of yours. It is there at your disposal, you can use it as you wish, nothing is lacking. You are the master of everything. Why, then, are you running away from yourself and seeking for things outside?"

Upon hearing these words, Dae Ju attained enlightenment.
