Humanity lacks meaningful initiation rituals. Rituals that separate the boy from the man and the girl from the woman

Something a little bit more profound than finishing school or getting laid

That's one reason we don't really grow up anymore.

Different but related topic.

I'm not sure an initiation into adulthood must necessarily be of a mystical kind.

Adulthood can be considered a prerequisite of the mystic initiation, though, if such is indeed desired.

I can agree with that... for me life unfolds into an increasingly spiritual experience as we become aware of the great universe around us and our role in all of it. Youde like the gnostic mass. Mystery of Mystery is an epic book on it.
