What differences are there between master and disciple?

Master Kosen – Published on April 16 – master-disciple-relationship

Question

Why are my questions never answered? Is there no
master for me here?

What would a master do without a disciple? The master exists only because the
disciple comes forward, doesn’t he? I am a disciple who asks
only to ordain a master. Why not?

Here is my question: What differences are there between master and
disciple?

Answer from Master Kosen

It all depends on who the master is and who the disciple is.
