The narrator reflects on a character named Fat, suggesting that he has achieved enlightenment or the state of a Buddha. However, the narrator believes that revealing this to Fat might not be wise. The idea is that true enlightenment should be self-realized, and by telling Fat, it might undermine his own journey of discovery.

This perspective emphasizes the importance of personal growth and understanding in one's spiritual journey. The narrator implies that awareness of one's state of enlightenment might come from within rather than from external validation, reinforcing the theme of self-discovery in the narrative.
