- Big Bamboo Comes from the Root of Big Bamboo
- 1 Su-bu-nim received word that Her mother was suffering from erysipelas, a severe, infectious skin disease. When Su-bu-nim was about to leave to visit her,
- 2 Sahng-jeh-nim said, “Wait a moment. Let Us go together.” Su-bu-nim was delighted. She waited to leave with Sahng-jeh-nim; but before long, Her mother, who by chance had come to visit, entered the room and sat down.
- 3 Sahng-jeh-nim said, “Big bamboo comes from the root of big bamboo; small bamboo comes from the root of small bamboo. Please bless your daughter so that She will do well.”
- 4 After He said this, the skin disease was cured.
