Just wanted to let you know that i’ve done a fetter 1-3 call with Michael (my tentative conclusion so far is that I had already dropped them earlier and just didn’t know it) and am now doing fetters 4-5 work, all based on some of your blogposts. Early days, but thanks for writing this
i'm super sceptical of moral developement like that. But it does seem to work for you? Fascinating! I don't believe in dropping something at all tbh. My intuition is that it's like a fractal and you clean out subtler and sublter conditioning. But you never complete anything. My progress with attachement and neuroticity is also pretty smooth. It just gradually decreases. I could see focusing on specific "fetters" being useful, but actually dropping one.. Don't think so. I also don't know any modern experienced meditator i trust who claims that. Like Wyston, Roger, Rosa Lewis, and so forth.
