  Comments:
* Reorder readings – はっとう is definitely the preferred reading (only one given in GG5 and WP, and daijr and koj consider ほうどう secondary). (It’s often given in furigana, since weird)
* [fld=Buddh]
* gloss: esp. Zen (dicts say “[always] Zen”, WP says “esp. Zen”)
Notes:
** GG5 has a typo – it reads “the lecture hall of a zen.” …dropping “temple”
** daijr and koj disagree about ほうどう – daijr pointedly considers it separate (i.e., *not* ), while koj considers it a synonym.
