Zen - Need for practice
You should observe the example of Buddha Shakyamuni of the Jeta
Grove, who practiced sitting up straight for six years even though he
was gifted with intrinsic wisdom.
Still celebrated is Master Bodhidharma of the Shaolin Temple, who sat facing the wall for nine years although he had already received the mind seal.
Ancient sages were like this; who nowadays does not need to practice as they did?
