True, and in fact I meant that the experience of such things is so personal that it is unlikely that a priest's interpretation can replace one's own perception of it

I think the idea could not have been expressed better.
I add only that often I had the impression that religions explained that with the idea of 'protecting' the light from the world. Maybe it is just a way to make people believe that by themselves (=without intermediaries) they cannot access it

Seriously, these are things that can be felt very intensely in delicate moments of life.
Also, describing the situation as standing on top of it with your feet is the most effective way to convey it. I mean, it really gives the idea of something that one always has access to but does not realize

True. But the light is already there, and in my opinion it is within everyone's reach, even when it cannot be noticed. All that is missing is the right word to name/recognize it

It would be enough just to reorganize them, replacing them with more organic and systematic laws than the previous fragmentary ones

So it is presumably this shadow that is the essence through which the effects of the reduction to nothingness itself operate

A few days ago I seriously thought the same thing but I did not dare say it out loud. Glad to find someone else who thinks the same way. Regards

I agree, formalities only serve to give solemnity
