Well, actually he did. He was a well educated prince to begin with and after he left his home he studied under numerous teachers did he not? He almost killed himself following their teachings. It wasn't until after he had tried and failed under the various teachers he encountered that he began his famous meditation session under that tree. Is that not correct?
