Some would even take offence at the suggestion being made here that they are - for the most part - simply bystanders, eavesdroppers and onlookers (i.e., not all that serious) to the Great Work of Awakening being pursued by the few of the few. The reason is fairly obvious to those who are serious in the right way; you can't tell somebody who isn't serious, what they don't already know for themselves; they must discover it for themselves, and then be able to tell themselves (and others, should they indicate an interest) what they have discovered.
That is what these campfires are: at the "end of the day" (day being a very variable term), the group "elders" (another variable term) gather around the "fire of conscious light" (known as such only BY them), and quickly enter that most desirable state of mind wherein higher conscious (i.e., illuminated, enlightened) thought is experienced (sans words), in order to, as it were, "chant the world" to their brothers and sisters.
In such a "campfire meeting" the purpose is ALWAYS to raise the level of understanding and being of those present, such that what One Knows (and can discuss) they all know, or put another way, what The Room Knows each one of them knows. One thing starts to become very clear to those "in the room (around the fire)," which is that their personalities quickly fall away, and recede into the darkness where they belong, revealing the "Fire As Conscious Light" which it most certainly is.
