Sorry to have butted in like this.

The thing about this thread and the threads I start in this section, is the meditation is current with the discourse, so it's not so much 'about' the practice as it is the fostering of practice itself. It's not to come here and learn things, but to be mindful here and now. Otherwise it's just a debate which is ruled over by being right, as opposed to a discussion founded in 'right' as that word is used in the 8 path.
