Thanks element, you have been a big help. I think now I know that it is the rising and falling of consciousness interspersed, but it is an illusion which makes us feel that it is one consciousness all along check it out in this article: http://www.buddhapadipa.org/pages/me...indmoment.html

IF we could get back to the main issue which is regarding an enlightened person not killing another in a world where everyone is enlightend. Could someone explain to me what it is that would prevent an enlightened person from killing another, he would commit no harm nor create any more fruits of kamma because he is enlightened. He would no longer have the desire to kill, because he would no longer have desire, but what about the desire to eat. Would he still have that?
