Theos-Talk Archives (December 1998 Message tl00094)

Good *God*. What is it about Theosophy that seems to inspire people to use
the *collective* when they are deep in the midst of entirely self-involved
narcissistic ruminations about their own "spiritual growth"? 'Tis a malady
I've seen afflicting several over the years on this list. "We" should do
this, "we" should do that. "We" should consider the other. Ach! Such
childishness. Perhaps "we" should get over ourselves, stop preaching and
start talking in "our" own words. "We" don't have any more of a clue than
anyone else, and if "we" can't even see the tremendous arrogance inherent in
believing that what "we" happen to be interested in at the moment should be
what everyone *else* thinks about also, then "we" probably aren't ready to
even begin understanding a philosophy grounded in *selflessness*.
