    Precisely, and that is a fact. Its pure luck (vipaka) that you are in the correct path and nobody else other than yourself and the load Buddha himself can verify this. Most people are in the wrong path IMHO.

    Yes, that is also true, as I said, its pure luck. If බෝසතානන් වහන්සේ satisfied with that and stopped his search, we wouldn't have a load Buddha.

    what is the point of your approach of search if it is purely based on luck and 99% leaning toward the wrong path and you dont even know you are on the wrong path?

    1. First, it completely and comprehensively answers my questions.
    2. Second, I don’t believe any other path can address those questions the way this one does.
    3. Third, based on what I already know, trying to figure these answers out entirely on my own, just by reading books or listening to sermons, would only complicate things and likely leave me lost. I am not saying it’s impossible, as Lord Buddha did something similar, but it isn't practical for me.
    4. Finally, it comes down to personal choice. I genuinely feel this is the right path.
    that's basically it, and sure others may have different views/disagreements and they are entitled to those, but the salvation is something personal, right?

    By the way, leaning toward the wrong path is for grater than 99% for an any being, it may be something like 99.99999999999999999999999999999% based on what I know and what load Buddha told. :-)
