One of the retreatants asked the Venerable a question during the retreat end sharing session.
Hm....I honestly forgot the question. Coz my thoughts were wondering (but that's for another entry)
But the Venerable replied with "你说呢"
Which we thought was a right answer.
Sometimes, we ask a question with an answer in mind, for which we only want confirmation.
Other times, the answer would be dependent on our perspectives, on so many other conditions.
Or, the question is only a matter of importance to us (due to our attachment)
There are numerous rationale and reasons that would lead to a different answer.
So, the answer of 你说呢 was brilliant!
So often, the answer can only be found by the person questioning in the first place.
What say you....
