The tale has as many meanings as it has hearers. The monk who loves his ease finds something to make him laugh; the other finds something to make him sad.

Three monks in brown and black robes sit and stand by a lit fireplace in a cozy, wood-paneled room. One monk is seated and relaxed, another stands beside him, and a third sits opposite, holding prayer beads.
