Oh yes the memory of the experience are there, it just that the access are temporarily blocked, for a purpose.
As a metaphor, since you have a new mobile device, let's put all the old memories (photos, videos) on the cloud storage, and start collecting new memories (photos, videos) with the new device. So no memories of cheating boyfriends, bullied on elementary school, failing on classes etc..
Yet of course, when you're ready, all the wonderful photos and videos of you and cheating boyfriends are always available on the cloud and can be downloaded to the new device.
Diana Wrote:That is the point—veil = suffering,Let's take the memory of cheating boyfriends example, experiencing / recollecting the memory, is it a really a suffering?
Initially perhaps yes, that's why it's better to store the old memories on the cloud and make it temporarily inaccessible .
Yet after some 'additional experiences' (thus more wisdom and knowledge), accessing the memory of cheating boyfriends might not be a 'suffering' anymore.
