Hi Rick,
No I don't disagree I guess I am not just too familiar what this "smoking gun"
phrase and misinterpreted what you said. The only definition I found said it
was evidence of a crime.I interpreted that Glenn was making the accusation
that Pirsig was saying it was because of our culture that we were blind to the
dharmakaya light. I wasn't sure exactly what your intepretation of dharmakaya
light but when you called it a smoking gun also I thought you were saying
Pirsig had said something outrageous also (but for a different reason then
Glenn).
P.S. Don't worry about typos...no smoking gun there (used correctly?)
