I can't say anything

One man came to Zen Master Bokuju and said:

“I passed by, but I can’t stay with you for long.” And I thought it would be nice to come in and listen to you. I don't need much. Just say one word or one phrase that means the Truth and I will carry it in my heart!

Bokuju replied:

“I cannot do this, because even one word can destroy the Truth.” And whether you're in a hurry or not, I can't say anything. Carry only this - you asked Bokuju, he told you: “I can’t say anything.” Just remember this.
