During the civil wars in feudal Japan, an invading
army would quickly sweep into a town and take control.
In one particular village, everyone fled just before
the army arrived - everyone except the Zen master.

Curious about this old fellow, the general went to the
temple to see for himself what kind of man this master
was. When he wasn't treated with the deference and
submissiveness to which he was accustomed, the general
burst into anger. 
"You fool," he shouted as he reached for his sword,
"don't you realize you are standing before a man who
could run you through without blinking an eye!" 

But despite the threat, the master seemed unmoved. 
"And do you realize," the master replied calmly, "that
you are standing before a man who can be run through
without blinking an eye?"
