- Synopsis
- It is said that, through Zazen, or seated meditation as practiced by the Zen sect of Buddhism, it is possible to discover the ultimate self and learn how to live a truly spiritual life. About 2,500 years ago, by practicing seated meditation under a bo tree, Siddhartha Gautama, also known as Shakyamuni, became enlightened to the nature of human suffering (specifically birth, aging, illness, and death) and attained the ultimate state of tranquility, or Nirvana. Thus he became a Buddha, or an enlightened person who has reached the highest state attainable by the human mind.
