You may be right, simply because most Hindus take the theosophical
idea that chelaship and adepthood are too far in the future to worry about
(which is an unfortunate mistaken idea).  However, they do worry about good
and bad karma a lot.  The idea of action without rewards is foreign to
most all religions, but Theosophy does endorse it.
