I meant that you show up at a monastery and say, "Hello, I'm here to be enlightened!" They say, "Yeah, we get that a lot. Well, we can help you with that. Let's start by having you get up early tomorrow morning and cooking some rice."
Then they channel all your seeking-enlightenment energy into other activities, until you hopefully someday realize there ain't any such thing. But perhaps that realization is another sort of "enlightenment".
