Q...Who saw this - who is happy about it ?
A... Well the chap who lives at number 14a saw this. I really no longer 'know' who 'I' am , so looking back , as it were 'I' hve only this fleeting memory of me seeing no-self, that there actually is no self. So it was Dharmavira as he was a few weeks ago who saw it but hey that guy Dharmavira is gone. So sort of following on from that it is 'me' this on-going unfolding ephemeral experience that is relativly happy and free. But for sure 'I' no longer really know who 'I' am.

Q...Would it be true to say 'you' are a ' Buddhist ?
A...So since 'I' no longer really know who 'I' am it is difficult to say anything for sure about 'me'. I suppose I even wonder what is a Buddhist ? There is that degree of questioning going on. I imagine for convention's sake 'I' will continue to call myself a Buddhist, what ever that is. But I do not know ...everything is so new and different from the past. There is no fixed 'me'....that's gone.

Hi Dharmavira,

Good answers! I'll notify on LU Central and see whether the guides involved are happy to confirm.
