The Taste of Master’s Sword

(Adapted from a Zen story)

Dr. Mala Sinha

Tejaswan was the son of a famous swordsman. The father disowned him because he was disgusted by his son’s caliber in fencing. To earn his father’s respect Tejaswan decided to learn the art of fencing from the famous master Rinzwan. When Tejaswan approached Rinzwan , he confirmed the fathers judgment - that he was indeed a poor swordsmanship, and that he could not take him as a disciple, because he would not be able to fulfill the requirements of being a trainee.

“But if I work hard, how many years will it take “ asked Tejaswan; to which the master replied “ The rest of your life”.

Tejaswan persisted, “ I cannot wait that long. I am willing to undergo any hardship, if you would only teach me. If I become your devoted servant, how long will it take”.

“ Oh maybe ten years “ relented the master.

“My father is getting old, if I work even harder, how many years will it take then “ Tejaswan again asked.

Oh, maybe thirty years “ said the master.

Exasperated Tejaswan said, “ Why is it so. First time you said rest of your life, then you said ten years, and now you say thirty. I am willing to undergo any hardship to become the greatest swordsman in the shortest possible time.

Rinzwan answered “ In that case you will have to remain with me for seventy years. A man in such a hurry as you are to get results, seldom learns fast”.

Tejaswan at last understood that he was being rebuked for impatience. He agreed to do everything asked by the master. Rinzwan told Tejaswan never to speak of fencing and never to touch a sword.

Thereafter Tejaswan cooked for his master, cleaned the yard, tended the garden , all without a word on swordsmanship. Three years passed , ands still Tejaswan labored on thinking his future was indeed sad . He had not even begun to learn the art he had devoted his life to.

But one day Rinzwan crept behind him and gave him a terrific blow with his wooden sword. The following day , when Tejaswan was cooking rice , the master again sprang upon him unexpectedly. After that, day and night, Tejaswan had to defend himself from unexpected thrusts from his master .Not a moment passed in the day when he did not think of Rinzwan’s sword. He learned so rapidly he brought smiles to the face of the master. Tejaswan became the greatest swordsman in the land.

3 StarPatience and blind faith in the masters are indeed a lostculture i today's times.But these are virtues which bore fruits.Aren't we all in a hurry today?Patience today will be called as complacency,blind faith lack of common sense...Yet where do we want to go,excellence is actually a mediocre performance,quality is replaced by chalta hai....marypraxy@gmail.com
5 StarTrust on Guru's Teachings & Patience are first step of Learning.Defending is the key of excellence in Swordmanship.
5 StarThe actual learning comes from unusual way! Tejaswan learned swordmanship while defending himself from unexpected blows and without a pressure of performing good. The hurdle in the path of Tejaswan was his expectations and hurry. In present context, An IT crash course can teach a person the codes and provide him the certificate but a person who is exposed to the problems to be solved by IT can only be the master. So Tejswan was exposed to the problem how to defend from unexpected blow and learned to core of the art by identifying and addressing the basic purpose of it. sharo.bappa@gmail.com

5 StarPatience is precious than Diamond. So be cool and attentitive towards your Goal to learn quick and smart
5 StarIt's just not patience, but perseverence which will take one to greater heights. Tirelessly pursuing ones goals, it could be tiny steps, but steps need to be taken every other day, week, month, year, etc. will make one reach his goals. The smarter a person is, the better EQ one has they are sure to succeed against all odds.. Thx- Shyam shyams07@gmail.com
