Meditation done properly, under the right circumstances and in the necessary seclusion needed for a longer period of time is comparable to the psychic trials we face in a traditional initiation. A deepened maturation process whose concentration takes us past, under and beyond the conditioned cultural layers of social constructions, to the absolute foundation within us as and the nature whose states and processes constitute the whole that we experience as an embodiment of context and belonging, and at the same time enclose the source of knowledge and insight that has its outlet in our consciousness. After we have gone through the moral trials they entail when we turn towards ourselves and truly see the mental actions that have governed us in our human context in relation to the balance of mind that we are weighed by, and that we have laboriously and for a long time been supported by as we formulate a deeper perspective on our reality from within it in itself during these trials. Against this background, we understand how significant it is both for our own mental health but also how crucial it is from a broader perspective as it is obvious that very few people in our world have gone through that process as it would be impossible for them to assist or support most of the mental actions and attitudes that characterize people in our societies today. Being outside the social structures that give the relationship to ourselves an external context but without the true foundation within ourselves, creates emptiness. A feeling of it. Something that creates both addiction and a feeling of not belonging to ourselves which can lead people to commit suicide out of despair. We blame ourselves for the mental distance and lack of presence of mind that emptiness is in others. But we are not emptiness. It is the psychic space we are in. Each and every one of us in our own way. It is so extensive that it feels endless when we first encounter it. Therefore, it first becomes an abyss, a boundless depth before we stop being it and see that we are in it. Everything has its origin in it. It is when we identify with it that it feels so intimidating at first. It is in that sense that this trial is so important. For our mental endurance, our attention in relation to the absolute foundation within ourselves and for what we go through there in terms of the participation we have in its outlet in consciousness from an interpersonal context.
