Description
A well educated man came to a master of martial arts and told him his teaching is impossible. He went on to tell the master about physics and biology and many other facts he had learned. The master asked him to join him for tea, and when they sat down the master poured the tea, when the cup was full and the tea started to spill over the top the well educated man said "Why are you continuing to pour tea? Can't you see the cup is full and cant hold anymore?" The master responded, "you are like this cup." The well educated man asked "What do you mean?" The master said "You are so full of information that you can't hold anymore, if you try to learn something more it just spills out like this cup. If you want to see how this is possible, you must first empty your cup then you may learn something new."
