- Ho-yun Threatens to Embarrass Sahng-jeh-nim
- 3 One day, when Sahng-jeh-nim was talking to some disciples, Ho-yun kept interrupting.
- 4 “Don’t do that,” He scolded.
- 5 Sulking, Ho-yun said, “I’m going to embarrass You.”
- 6 “And how will you do that?”
“I’ll take Your clothes off.”
- 7 “And how will you take My clothes off?”
“When You are sleeping, I’ll take off all Your clothes.”
- 8 At this, Sahng-jeh-nim said, “It would be great if people saw that and laughed! It is not easy to make people laugh!” He laughed loudly and the whole room burst into laughter.
