Once upon a time, there was a congregation of fish, who got together to discuss who among them had seen the ocean. None of them could say they had actually seen the ocean. Then one fish said, ‘‘I think my great grandfather had seen the ocean!’’ A second fish said, ‘‘Yes, yes, I have also heard about this.’’ A third fish said, ‘‘Yes, certainly, his great grandfather had seen the ocean.’’

So they built a huge temple and made a statue of the great grandfather of that particular fish! They said, ‘‘He had seen the ocean. He had been connected with the ocean.’’

Enlightenment is the very core of our being; going to the core of our self and living our life from there.

Sorry, was a play on the story, "What is Buddha?" "Dry sh*t on a stick." :)

Peetpu, a famous 13th Century word verification seer from Fishgazstad, once said: "Let the fish drink of the same truth filling the universe's magical fountain." And so I see by your picture, it has now been done.

Love from the man from Pjvyakjz, swimming in the sea of Truth, yet trying to drink from the "external" "source"...
