Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
You may find the addition of the concept referring to going home to be a little odd, but in many who seek the spiritual path the 'dive' to confront their demons is a necessary part of the journey.
I also think, that the book was based on actual spiritual experiences in his depressed state, he combined what he saw with what he interpreted it to be.
A description of the experience
Dante – The Divine Comedy INFERNO I
CANTO VI
And he replied 'You know that the place is round;
And although you have come a long way
Always to the left, descending to the bottom
You have not yet done the complete circle;
So that if anything that is new appears
It ought not to make you look astonished
