My interpretation is that he had a certain understanding and then changed his mind.

Because Oneness would still be present, pervading all things.

Thanks.
You don't need to. It is besides the point. I also read about a
"Bobbie-san", Dutch I believe, very smart, that studied and practiced Zen, and at some point was highly appreciated in Japan for his results, who at some point gave up Zen.
I think these examples are just examples. It happens.
One of the points I can't understand, nor accept, is when somebody claims that they know the Truth and that there is no question they do. If you question that belief, it is only because you didn't have that experience. To me, that is the same thing that billions of people of other faiths claim / claimed.
