What Triggers Peak Experiences?

Why do some meditations lead
Why do some meditations lead to peak experiences and others not? What makes these mystical experiences fade? And what holds us back from having them more often?
Rupert says some objects or events in the world have the capacity to trigger these transcendent experiences. It can be a question such as, ‘What is it that never leaves me?’. If the right person ponders that question at the right time, it will take them directly to their changeless nature. It can also be precipitated by works of art that engage our perceptions. Without formulating the question, these artworks ask ‘What is the nature of the perceiver?’. Other experiences, of tremendous grief, for example, have such a profound effect that it just shatters the mind and brings it to an end. And in that space, there can sometimes be this recognition.
But sometimes the separate self in you realises it has been dealt a mortal blow by this experience so it comes back with a vengeance to reassert itself. Just one powerful but brief glimpse of your true nature is not enough to put an end to decades of habitual thinking and feeling on behalf of the separate self. And when the old habits come back again it's as if God says to us, okay, I have revealed myself to you. Now I have disappeared again and it's your job to find me. That's the spiritual path.
