I Don't Know If I Can Do This

 

Student: I don't know if I can do this?
Teacher: I don't know if you can either.
Student: How does one know?
Teacher: In one way, you don't know, ever, until you attain enlightenment. And then the thought doesn't cross your mind. In another, do you think you have other choices? If you do, it's going to be a long journey.
