Do not ask "Why?"

Zen Master Suzuki has countless students from all over the world who come looking for instruction. With his lectures, they often ask a question, "Why?".

Suzuki says that, in Japan, hardly anyone thinks of the word "Why?" when you say something. Although he admires his students' curiosity and sincerity, he tells them that sometimes always asking "Why" will hinder each person's improvement.

Because, when our mind is still wondering and questioning too many things, it will be difficult to focus on learning. According to Suzuki, once believing in his teacher, the student's job is to diligently follow his teacher's instructions. At some point, when they have had enough experience, they will probably find the answer on their own.

Suzuki often told his students, "In the first five years, don't turn down any job. Just do it".

Conclusion: There are many stories in life that have no answers. We just need to accept as is, that's all.
