Why bother? If you've "got fruit" you've got fruit. Because you are glimpsing the result along the way? What "way"? Where do you glimpse the result, if not in the future? Seems to me "causal path" v "acausal pathless paths" is a difference that makes no difference. > Since the Path in this case is the Fruit, there really is no > path per se, you're already there; that's why it's a pathless path. > > I only have some passing familiarity with Krishnamurti, they sound > similar based on what I remember.

I was not the least bit offended. Funny how we differ.
