Everyone is right (then who is wrong?)

There was this humorous zen story about some monks (monks again!!?)

2 monks were arguing on a contoversial topic. After a long debate, they still couldn't determine who was right. So, they decided to ask their master to decide.

When the 1st monk presented his viewpoints, the master quickly agreed that he was right. The 1st monk was satisfied and showed the 2nk monk a 'l-told-you' look.

The 2nd monk was shocked and explained to the master why his views were right and the 1st monk was wrong. The master, after pondering for a moment, also agreed with the 2nd monk! The 2nd monk also felt satisfied as truth finally prevailed.

At that time, there was also another monk that was attending to the master in the room. This monk was most shocked as he couldn't believe his respected master actually agreed with the 2 monks despite they had opposing views.

He agitatedly asked the master, "How can Master support 2 opposing views? Don't you think you are misleading your disciples?"

The master, without any hesitation, replied "You are right too!!!"

If you think this story is humorous, then that's how funny we are at times. All try to insist that their opinions are right which I believe we really are, based on our own perspective, background and what we view as priorities.

Many have heard of the saying 'seeing is believing'. However, do you know that each person that looks into a mirror see different images depending on where we stand?

To demonstrate our priority can make us feel so right, try answer this question:

"If you have $100,000, will you donate to an orphanage or an old folks home?"

No matter which organization you go for, you are RIGHT. Some argue that the orphans have a better future hence they should donate to orphanage. If that's true, what about letting the old folks have a good end since they have not much time left?

So, which one now? Still orphanage? Still old folks? Go with your priority. That's right. Just remember one thing: If you choose orphanage, don't argue with those who donate to old folks because...

You are right
They are right
I'm also right!
