Meaning
This frames suffering as a symptom of inner separation rather than only an external problem. It can be read as saying that meditation is not escape, but a way of restoring contact with the self beneath noise and strain. It lands for someone who feels scattered, anxious, or emotionally cut off and is looking for a practice that promises reconnection.
