....a thicket of views, a wilderness of views, a contortion of views, a writhing of views, a fetter of views. It is accompanied by suffering, distress, despair, & fever, and it does not lead to disenchantment, dispassion, cessation; to calm, direct knowledge, full Awakening, Nibbana.

Well that IS interesting. I must have things all backwards then, because from my thicket of views, suffering, distress, despair, & fever is not what I experience at all, and in fact, disenchantment, dispassion, cessation & calm, is what seems to be increasing constantly. Plus feeling really happy most of the time. As for direct knowledge, full Awakening and Nibbana, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
