A young monk has been assigned to a monastery where they copy manuscripts. He happily takes his place with the other monks copying day in and day out. A constant thought keeps crossing his mind and he decides to confide in the head monk.
He says We are copying from copies of copies on these manuscripts. Are we 100% sure that we have it right? There could be some mistakes and we could be making the same mistakes.
The head monk says You have a point so I will go to the archives and check. The head monk is gone for 1 hour, two hours, three hours and after 4 hours the young monk heads down to the archives.
There he finds the senior monk banging his head against the wall muttering It says celebrate. Celebrate.
