For those who might still be daydreaming or having difficulties with reading comprehension, you will notice that I never said gerbal said "checker." Rather, I clarified when the question *is* asked for those who might have misinterpreted "the person verifying the correctness of our meditatio[n]" to refer to a checker (of whom that phrase is also a very precise description). (I don't recall the question being asked on the day of initiation, but it's possible I've forgotten.) I also pointed out that while the question may be asked during the three days of checking--usually the first day--it's asked only if one of the new meditators hasn't already reported such an experience. That's because the point is not to verify the "correctness of our meditation," since that experience is not the criterion of correct meditation; the point is to *explain* such an experience. > The person verifying the correctness of our meditatio asks: did you > notice some moments when there was no mantra and no thought. > > Oh, yes, we remember that.
