You Have Much to Learn, Grasshopper!
Monz confronts a problem of the ancients. He wants a corned beef sandwich, yet he knows that Jewel will serve him this sandwich on an uncrusty white bread bun, wholly inappropriate. It wound-up tasting like corn beef on a french bun -- all the things you wouldn't want on such a sandwich. Monz finds it pointless. When we consulted another master we got this response:
Practice non-action.
Work without doing.
Taste the tasteless.
Magnify the small, increase the few.
Reward bitterness with care.
Like the Monz, inscrutable...
