When U look at me, what do U see

A fable from the East tells of an emperor and a zen monk who came face to face for the first time.

The emperor ruled over a kingdom that practiced Buddhism and the monk was eager to meet with him, looking forward to sharing tales of enlightenment.

But when they met, the emperor decided to test the monk by saying to him:

When you look at me, what do you see?

I see a Buddha, answered the monk. And what do you see when you look at me?

I see a pig! countered the emperor. Waiting to see the monk's reaction, he said no more.

The monk pondered for a moment, then said:

A Buddha sees a Buddha; a pig sees a pig!

"Treat Others the way You want to be treated".
