Great essay, keep up the good work. When you do arrive at the “flower” part of the journey, the big question will be taking profound/ineffable spiritual experiences and reintegrating this into your existing analytical worldview — i.e finding the divine in the path that you are already on.

I think some of the really heavy-duty depth psychology (i.e. Jungian archetypes, unconscious parental power dynamics) will really start to click on an emotional level as well.
