Abstract
As initially presented in the context philosophical theology, the title indicates a two-fold perspective. On one hand: That which is usually described as conversion is at heart an insight (with or around some religious content) - the outcome for the person having undergone such an experience puts the world in context while also putting concerns that affect the wellbeing of the world and of being in the world at the heart of said human being. Indirectly the authors explains, how a process that could even be described as the momentary insight into the core of a non-buddhist koan led to a new comprehension of Christian mystical theology. The author finds herself on a threshold, unable to call herself 'religious in the common sense of the word - yet deeply drawn, compelled even - to structure her life with and through the new insight.
