Zen story

Two sannyasins were talking to each other.
One said: "My master can walk on water"
The other said: "My master can not walk on water though he can"

Walking on water is an amazing achievement a master has achieved by way of his meditations. The master is so amuzed that he starts amuzing his fellow disciples by showing off this exta-ordinary feat.
The second master though can do this, has gone past the stage of getting amuzed by this great achievement. He does not show off in front of his disciples, nor does he feel it's a big thing to boast about.
The underlying message in this story is something which is very meditative and strikes a chord in us.
