It has a very real purpose. It's to enter a state of mind. Their practices achieve this objective. Whether or not you think that state of mind is a worthwhile one is a completely different question. When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
