Forum: For Stream-Enterers: A Different Way of Doing 2nd Path
The following is an IM conversation between myself and theprisonergreco where I asked him a question about this page and suggested that he clarify something in it, and he said he was too tired to bother fixing it so I should comment on the page. So I thought it would be funny to paste our conversation about it in my comment instead of bothering to write a real comment.
me: "you don't have to wait until going for 3rd path to do this if it makes sense to you to do this here and now."
me: don't you mean 2nd?
theprisonergreco: no going for 3rd path is going for anagami
me: but i thought the article was about going for 2nd
theprisonergreco: yes. hence, you dont have to wait until [you already have 2nd and are] going for 3rd ..
theprisonergreco: make sense now?
me: are you saying that your advice in this article is similar to advice normally given to people going for #3?
theprisonergreco: yes
me: that's not clear [to me]

theprisonergreco: edit it or comment on it
theprisonergreco: wait, dont edit it
me: yeah i'm not gonna edit it
why don't you just change it to "This kind of advice is normally given to people going for Third Path, but ..."
theprisonergreco: but if you wanna be helpful to me and other people maybe comment on it. cos i recognise the clarity of your point just dont feel like finding a way to insert it gracefully
theprisonergreco: ok, definitely sleep now
theprisonergreco: bye
me: ok goodnight
To clarify, I originally thought that he meant (and mistyped) "you don't have to wait until going for 2nd path to do this if it makes sense to you to do this here and now" meaning "go ahead and try this kind of investigation out even if you're not working on 2nd Path like I was, because it might be helpful for anyone."
