All of these seem relevant but as a starting point I would put something like most humans having a lot of technical debt (https://sashachapin.substack.com/p/review-meditation-from-cold-start), not feeling safe and okay in there here and now. Maybe not being enlightened. And then we could get to work on the difficult problems you bring up. Of course, there is the trap here of going off the rails using spirituality or me already being off the rails.
