DESCRIPTION
The Buddha is said to have become enlightened under the Bodhi Tree around 2500 years ago. To be enlightened is highly emphasized in Buddhism, especially in the Ch'an School. Ch'an practitioners claimed that they followed the quintessence of teh Buddha's teachings. The socalled quintessence of teh Buddha's teaching, according to them, is beyond expression of world and symbolism.
