IMHO it's an ontological state. A state of being where one has isolated oneself from the ultimate source of good, grace, forgiveness, redemption. Where one has cut oneself off from one's innate capacity for love, faith, devotion, giving, selflessness.
You cast this in an ecumenical context, so that ultimate source would be different according to different faith traditions, and the cause of isolation from that would also be different.
According to the contemplative traditions it is largely similar.
