i browsed thru the article, which seemed to focus on the term 'vipassana'...'vipassana' is..."...insight or direct seeing into the three characteristics...mental noting, [is] probably close to what the buddha called yonisomanasikaraor reasoned reflection...I doubt there can be such thing as dry vipassana or only vipassana...we must be careful to not adulterate terms like 'vipassana' and 'mindfulness'....
Niether vipassana nor yonisomanasikara are new to me. I want to discuss this, not read a mini-lecture. I don't recall Gil using either "dry vipassana" or "only vipassana" in the ch. excerpt. No "adulteration" is occuring.
