Once upon a time, there was a happy monk who lived in a cottage by a stream, in a wood. The only way visitors came to visit the monk was via a path the monk tended, that wound through the wood, eventually merging with a riverbed. People would find their way to the river, from a bridge or a park, walk along it until they reached the monk's path, which was marked with a special ornament, and then follow the path to reach the monk. By the time they arrived, they were in a different state of mind from when they left, and this was part of how the monk helped them.
