Yeah, I don't believe I said anything about the correlation *always* being the case, did I? In context (restored above), the question was whether the experiences you and Alex reported were consistent with MMY's explanations of witnessing. One would *expect* to be able to notice the Self more easily when one's activity level is low, but that doesn't mean it's always going to be the case, nor did I suggest it did.
