How silly you are. Whatever you are recalling, it is incorrect. A
stream didn't instruct Buddha Shakyamuni. He realized the middle way
through six years of dedicated concentration. A consentration as
stable as it would ever get for most people on the planet.


Apparently, the six years was a dry hole (in Texan parlance) and
it wasn't until young Siddhartha sat for a short while under a
Bodhi-tree next to a stream that he became enlightened.

Why are you abusive?
