Hello John,
My two other questions, and his answers, were:

1. What is vipassana? "Clear insight into anicca, anatta and 
dukkha." [impermanence, not-self and suffering]

2. Are there arhats alive today? "One does not talk about this."

3. Is the Bodhisattva Maitreya presently in a body or 
not? "Difficult to say. That light is there but because the world is 
in darkness it cannot see it."
