It is like a rebirth from the first, or the small death that precedes the one that finally makes us leave this life and return to the origin of life. Suddenly, if we have not gone through the previous one and we are no longer in our youth but are adults, we make a deepening. The psychic status quo of our childhood and youth life is broken and dissolved. Our perspective is shifted from our previous external relationship, to a meditative listening to the parts that belong to and surround an inner source. Our psychic maturity undergoes a transformative change inward. We become aware of the constant flow of impressions, impulses, feelings, opinions and thoughts that constantly surround us and wrestle for attention within us from this new observing perspective and its source of wisdom and energy within us, regardless of our and others’ surface, and what we want others to relate to in us, and we in them. For the sake of the original whole, we also encounter what we do not want to see here. All that we have rejected and separated from the concoction of ideas, compromises and conditioning that we have tied to the ego and that we then want to see as our personality. That which then causes us such concern, fear and anxiety and which has not been allowed to mature within us. Which has transformed our psychic integrity into hostility. But from this new meditative and self-observing perspective we can begin to see this for what it is, and beyond that. We begin to return to the content of the original whole with an open mind as adults. To the perspective that fills us with the stillness, calm and clear insight that we need when we return to ourselves, with the help of the meditative and self-reflective psychic equilibrium whose function we constantly listen to within ourselves as we approach the source from which we once arose. I understand it as that which we all continuously encounter and self-inspectingly work with within ourselves from the moment this occurs, and then throughout life, and is something we return to when we are about to leave it. How we then encounter it both in others and in ourselves depends on how we do it when we go through this in a meditative way all the time. In a meditative sense, the physical body and its biological processes do not interfere with what we encounter psychically in the same way, since their importance diminishes the more stable our mental equilibrium is, and then less and less as we age until they cease altogether. All that then remains is the consciousness that is embodied anew and through its ever-recurring mental rebirth. That is why karma has such a unique and significant position in a self-reflective sense. Because it is an aggregate of our meditative work. What we have done, renounced, or rejected. What we make of it is what remains. It is our inner world put into practice.
