Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy road was still falling. Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection. "Come on, girl," said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud. Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple. Then he could no longer restrain himself. "We monks don't go near females," he told Tanzan, "especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?" "I left the girl there," said Tanzan. "Are you still carrying her?"

1. Is there an action that must be explained/ What is it?

Answer #1

Yes ,there is an action that must be explained. Tanzan take action by helping a lovely and beautiful girl who is unable to cross mud road. Tanzan carried her over mud .Tanzan was going to Temple. He was strictly probhited to come contact any women because he is monk.

It has been observed Tanzan was not able to controlled him from women . So ,the action that is unable to restrained himself from beautiful girl to being. Monk is need to explained here. Action is taken to operate soloution of problem or assist to others. Here Action was completely based on intention to helping others not to attached emotionally with others. To being a monk it is true , that there will no any emotional attachment to anything but if somebody really needs help then it becomes responsibility to take action for overcoming problem.
