Just before Ninakawa left for another world, Master Ikkyu visited him.
- Shall I escort you? - Ikkyu asked.
Ninakawa replied:
“I came here alone and I’m walking alone.” How can you help me?
Ikkyu replied:
- If you really think that you have come and are going, you are mistaken. Let me show you the way where you can't come and go.
With these words, Ikkyu showed this path so clearly that Ninakawa smiled and walked away.
