Pointing at me saying I am there can be no more than pointing to what is there . What one relates to what is there can differ . Contemplating on what is being pointed to/at within meditation can eventually bring about realizations to that effect .
Meditation can take one beyond one's intellectual reasoning in regards to what is there . So all though I am here, there is no reference to what we are beyond here . Finding one's self is realizing what is beyond here . Try doing that within the noise and drama of life .

Inners and outers, everything and nothing are reference points within the whole . The inner self can be related to the unconscious self .. Meditation can bring what is unconscious/ unknown/ unrealized to the fore . Going within is likened to becoming aware of what one is currently unaware of . Like I mentioned above, not realizing what you are beyond that which is appearing here and now can become realized when one bridges the gap .
Meditation is likened to the bridge and as one journeys across the bridge the gap lessens ..
