SO I AM HELPING
P'ang Yun (740-808) was a well known Chinese Zen Layman.
He was once selling bamboo baskets. Coming down off the a bridge, he stumbled and fell.
When Ling-chao saw this she ran to her father's side and threw herself down.
" What are you doing!" cried the Layman.
"I saw Papa fall to the ground, so I am helping," replied Ling-chao.
"Luckily no one was looking," remarked the Layman.

(Ruth Fuller Sasaki's translation)
