N: Wonderful to hear from you. I appreciate your comments on various 
messages. If you have time could you elaborate on the vi~n~nattis? 
Which sentences of the commentary you are referring to? As you know, 
they are mere ruupas produced by citta, and are a means to convey a 
meaning. But it would be interesting to elaborate on this, if 
possible, before you leave us.

Nina.
