When you say a state, do you mean a state of mind (human mind?), or an alternate reality, or something else?

A state your mind enters pretty much. You can't really communicate how you used to with others anymore if you stay in such state.

I understand. The questions comes down to: what is the inherent meaning of isolating yourself from reality to achieve a higher level? This is the root question.

I don't think you isolate yourself from reality this way. In my own experience I feel like I'm actually living in reality when I allow myself enter this state. The alternative feels like I'm viewing a mock version of reality which was psychologically instilled into me since a very young age. Basically I go back to before I adopted the assumptions society tried to feed me but failed. My worldview/reality viewpoint is legit and real. I have broken through the walls and came back to the source stronger than before while turning the information my opressors tried to plant into me to a powerful tools. The same tricks are piss weak on me nowdays and the constructed super-imposed reality has no effect on me anymore.

If it works for you going in that direction, then by all means you should continue. I understand what you mean, but don't understand subjectively how it would benefit myself, if I may speak selfishly for a moment. For me, what seems the closest to reality is when I'm peaking on psychedelics. Even though much of it is beyond me (in terms of fully understanding it), it is that lack of understanding which IMO is kind of the point. We fulfill our baseline 'simple' destinies, and reach to increase complexity.

Personally I have never tried drugs and I don't think there's a point in me getting into psychedelics. I think I'm naturally into such state without altering my mind via 'artificial' means. I have pretty wacky thoughts patterns and used to think everyone was like me. But what I discovered the last 3 and a half years has revolutionized my internal world. Calling it 'spirituality' or 'enlightment' would be surely misdirecting or dare I say, seling it shortly. Of course if you have found your place in a different manner I won't claim you're wrong. Some feelings can't be transferred to speech. Like the feeling I get when it's calm afternoon and I'm about to get dressed for going outside for a stroll. I feel a weird, almost manic tingly sensation in my chest. Like I'm keeping a very valuable secret but what is it?
