There was this man who went to visit a holy man, who was sitting under his tree near the river.
And he said to the holy man : " Master, I think I have earned enlightenment now, for after practizing three
years, I am now able to walk over the water to the other side of the river ! "
The holy man answered : " Did you say three years ? Did you not know then that there is a ferryman
10 minutes walking from here, who sets you over in his boat for a few pennies ? "
