Nobushige, a samurai soldier, asked Zen master Hakuin, “Is there a heaven and a hell? Where are the gates?” “Who are you?” inquired Hakuin. “I am a samurai,” the warrior replied. “You, a soldier!” exclaimed Hakuin. “What kind of ruler would have you as his guard? Your face looks like a beggar.” Hurt, Nobushige gripped his hand on the sword. Hakuin said, “Your sword is dull to cut of my head.” As Nobushige drew his sword, Hakuin remarked: “Here open the gates of hell!” At these words the samurai sheathed his sword. “Here open the gates of heaven,” said Hakuin. The alert mind is silent and projects everything inside, not outside. With ego you are unconscious - you dissipate your vitality; that is the gate of hell. With alertness, like how the samurai became later - you yourself open the gate of heaven by being conscious. If your thought stops even for a single moment and if there is no movement of body or mind, a tremendous energy is released which stays inside as there is no thought and no activity. Everything becomes conscious inside; your whole being is filled with light; you become peaceful and put the sword back. Then only your leadership manifests the state of Zen in you.
