Video Information: Acharya Prashant speaking on Zen Koans at the 24th Advait Learning Camp, Mukteshwar on 14th September 2016
Zen Koan: A monk asked Seijo, “Daitsu Chisho Buddha did zazen (meditated) for ten kalpas in a Meditation Hall, could not realize the highest truth, and so could not become fully emancipated. Why was this?”
Seijo said, “Your question is a very appropriate one!”
The monk asked again, “Why did he not attain Buddhahood by doing zazen in the Meditation Hall?”
Seijo replied, “Because he did not.”
