Q: What is today's message on this auspicious day of Chokhor Duchen, the first time the Buddha taught after attaining enlightenment?
A: One of his students asked Buddha, "Are you the messiah?"
"No", answered the Buddha.
"Then are you a healer?"
"No", Buddha replied.
"Then are you a teacher?" the student persisted.
"No, I am not a teacher."
"Then what are you?" asked the student, exasperated.
"I am awake", Buddha replied.
"No", answered the Buddha.
"Then are you a healer?"
"No", Buddha replied.
"Then are you a teacher?" the student persisted.
"No, I am not a teacher."
"Then what are you?" asked the student, exasperated.
"I am awake", Buddha replied.
