You know, what strikes me when you say that, and I love how you just put that, is that A lot of spiritual experiences happen in a vacuum, in an echo chamber, much like if people take a karate class. It happens in a dojo. We're all practicing, and everything is very, you hold this position, I do this. And we all walk away going, I think I know what to do.
