There was always a reason at one point, right? There's another parable that I love about a monk who had a young cat, a kitten. And they would go into meditation with his followers and the cat would come in and annoy everybody and distract from the meditation. Well, we chained the cat to the tree before we meditate. Then the cat died and the followers were distraught. How can we meditate now that there's no cat, but the two were never linked. So why not make up or at least be clear about what you need to be at your best and highest use?"
