He reflects on how people often join religions andcommunities seeking belonging and security, influenced by appearancesand traditions. While initiation rituals into communities can beimportant, they are often misunderstood or performed without realcomprehension. The conversation emphasizes the difference betweenbelonging to a community based on symbols and traditions and the need totranscend towards a network of more interconnected, practical, andinnovative communities.
