A disciple of Yoka kept approaching him gleefully with all his spiritual experiences that he encountered in his meditation sessions.

Yoka only beat him more and said, “Here you are with another idea, throw your emptiness out!"
The aghast disciple said, “But how can I throw emptiness ? It is not possible"
