The ordinary human state is that of being half-submerged in collective and ancestral consciousness, or more than half. It is individual only in appearance. Becoming an individual is a perilous journey that begins in this state, never strays too far from it, and is not necessary for what is regarded as a 'good life', is perhaps even a danger to it. Nevertheless there are some truths, some entire landscapes, that are only visible to the individual and at some cost.
