I get the sense that the two of you aren't understanding the word "style" the same way. new morning, what I get from your use of the phrase "MMY style of enlightenment" is "enlightenment as MMY defines/describes it." Jim, I think, understands you to be saying that enlightenment as defined/described by MMY is not the same *state* as enlightenment as defined/described by Amma, which is not the same state as enlightenment as defined/described by SSRS, or by SBS, or whoever. Would you agree, new morning, that while different teachers define/describe that state differently, all who are enlightened may be in the same state? Is there a parallel to the metaphor "the map is not the territory," i.e., that different teachers may be using different maps for the same territory?
