2. Sybil's mother tells Sybil that she will bring back olives from the bar for her, and later Sybil asks Seymour about olives. What is the significance of this?

Zen:
1. The reading mentions that there are around 1700 Koans. Who came up with the koans?
2. How does one experience only a partial Satori?
