(Before It's News)

Chuang Tzu was a man of great manners, formality, because he had been one of the most important men in the court of the king. So the king was expecting the same court manners. When he reached Chuang Tzu, he was playing on his flute, both his legs spread underneath a tree, leaning against the tree. He continued to play on the flute with legs spread.

The king stood there, could not believe his eyes. He said, “Have you gone mad or something? Have you forgotten all court manners?”

Chuang Tzu laughed and he said, “I was showing those manners because I was still hankering for respectability. Now I don't hanker for anything, so why should I care? You may be the king, you may be the beggar — it is all the same to me. Because now I have no desires any more, it does not matter whether the king comes to me or the beggar.”

The king was immensely impressed; he understood the point. All those court manners were nothing but ways of buttressing the king.

-Rajneesh
