A Zen Story

A university professor went to visit a famous Zen monk to ask about enlightenment. The monk remained silent, but handed the teacher a teacup. The monk filled the cup to the brim but kept pouring. The professor cried out, “Stop! The cup is too full and I cannot sip the tea!” The monk then spoke: “Like this cup, your mind is filled with too many opinions and ideas. How can you taste enlightenment if you do not empty your cup?”
