I hope the irony of using a quote as an example of what you've been saying all along isn't lost on anyone either.

Kris,

This by Bhante Gunaratana:

"Insight cannot be practiced while absorbed in jhana, since insight meditation requires investigation and observation, which are impossible when the mind is immersed in one-pointed absorption. But after emerging from the jhana, the mind is cleared of the hindrances, and the stillness and clarity that then result conduce to precise, penetrating insight." [my italics]

I hope anyone can see that this is what I've been saying all along.
