While commonly in texts it's written that one will experience certain things like "epiphanies" from meditation, that is only one aspect of meditation and it's outcome in producing enlightenment. Enlightenment is an ongoing process.
It is very important that when one walks on this path to have patience. Meditation cumulates inside your soul, and it might look like you are building step by step, making little progress day by day. Then at the point you are about to stop, the accumulated effort manifests itself inside you, and you suddenly rise to another level.
This can happen also in meditation related practices, or in things you want to know or discover in this path. Enlightenment will only arrive for the brave and those who put the necessary effort into this. Then, as you dig and keep digging, you'll discover at some point that the wall comes down, your mind changes, and oftentimes, these changes are permanent.
Those of us who meditate for years on end and adhere to the practice, do understand that who one was previously, is a version of inner self one overcomes and improves. The improvement is cumulative, because the more you improve, the more you can improve.
Going back to the point about the sudden evolution, one must respect this process, but also allow one's self to observe the small changes that happen on the daily. If you do not stand at any point to look behind at your mental or spiritual changes, then you will not be aware of them, and you will likely think that less distance has been covered than what you have already covered.
Events which relate to major and "sudden" enlightenment, need to build up on the foundation which deals with daily meditations. These events can be more obvious, or less obvious, or even very subtle.
Falsely, people also think that enlightenment can arrive suddenly, which it cannot; but certain openings can happen suddenly, yet this "sudden" is the process of an ongoing effort that comes behind you like the wagons of a train that has been set in motion for a long time.
Lastly, if you will get enligthened or not, depends also strongly on your mental and emotional progress and even certain aspects of physical actions and physical progress. I will explain these further in the new updates of the JoS. Our behavior, actions, and progress in all levels does matter.
It's imperative in this path to sit back, allow joy to stay in your heart that you are in the eternal path of straight and upwards. To breathe in and venerate the Gods for helping you find the path instead of you dwelling in ignorance, to calm down desire and allow it too to marvel at the infinity of the higher powers and the Gods, and say to one's self "You are doing well, just keep walking towards the eternal light of the Truth".
Try to appreciate your existence and that of others who help you in that endeavor, and have faith in the path towards enlightenment.
Praised be the Gods for helping us in that regard,
HAIL SATAN!!!
