| "I think that initiation is a
situation where you are in one world and you think that this is the
world and then a door opens, and you realize, oh, there’s another
world there. You see the door and you are maybe a little scared or
you may have resistance to go through the door, but then if you enter
somehow, go through the door... you enter the new room, then you suddenly
realize that actually the new room contains the old room. But now
also it’s a new room. That’s
an initiation.... And an initiator is one who stands in the doorway
and maybe makes you feel confident that you can actually [pass through]
the door. And an initiator is one with a foot in both worlds, so
to speak. He can speak the language of the old world and he can
speak the language of the new world...." - Finn
