Yeh, that's an interesting idea. I'd probably nit pick about meditation (ultimately) being about shrinking. I mean, mindfulness maybe, but insight is ultimately about no self at all, and a huge and deeply meaningful connection to everything in a vast and unknowable expansiveness... This expansiveness - the knowledge that one is nothing - is actually a huge source of comfort. But like everything in this realm, it's a paradox that is hard to explain with experiential reference points.
