		<description>This story does make me reflect on what I may need to let go of. Creating a vacuum is a wonderful lesson.

		<description>Hi Bamboo,

Forbidden Kingdom is on my list since a long time. I guess I will see it this weekend.

Hi Evelyn,
Thanks. That&#039;s how Koans are.

Hi Marelisa,
I too had read this kind of story before while reading &#039;Monk Who Sold His Ferrari&#039; by Robin Sharma. Came to know it&#039;s a Koan while researching the story online.</description>

		<description>I like how you explain at the beginning what a koan is.  I had heard this anecdote before--and I love it--but I didn&#039;t know that it was called a koan.

		<description>This is a great story, one I enjoy. &quot;The Forbbiden Kingdom&quot; movie reenacts this story, in its own way. Very cool.
