Hi to all,

first post after long time lurking, probably an introduction would be better than this, but this is what I have now:
I was exchanging emails with a friend that is currently trying to decide if what he experienced/is experiencing are fruitions, and if he reached stream entry or not.
(My educated guess is "yes", but it is another story)
I found the dedication to the diagnosis a bit funny, "what do you expect to get, a t-shirt", and this had to be drawn.

I hope it resonates with someone.

Next time you meet them, wear something like this:

Stream entry and $6.87 will get you a double half-caf soy frappucino.

What confusion is your friend having?

If he can get what they think are Fruitions, they must think they cycle naturally. If they cycle naturally, then perhaps they do have stream entry. It is a bit like graduating from high school and then becoming a lowly freshman in college: lots more to do, but it's a start.

Not the Age-Old Frappucino Model of Enlightenment again?
How many Frappucinos does an Arhat get? ; )

None, the cup is empty.
