A budhist monk travelled many weeks to see a master. The last few days of his trip he had to climb many thousands of steps up a steep mountain to the monestary near its summit.
When he arrived, he was told to take a seat, and somebody would fetch him when the master was ready to see him.
After two days, an assitant to the master arrived and said, "The master will see you now".
The monk approached the master and began to speak. The master waived his hand to silence him. "First tell me how many steps you had to climb to reach this place, and then I will speak to you", said the master.
