Can't find an edit button but wanted to add one thing. When I said the reality of spiritual evolution is best facilitated in a one-on-one interaction between student/teacher, I would add that often the best teacher we have is our own higher self (or double, or the self outside the box), but that can be tricky at first because there can be a tendency for the ego to mistake the internal dialog for the higher self. So I'm all for self-facilitated evolution but will also concede that in the early phases of the journey a mentor of some type may be desirable as a tool for learning to distinguish between the voice of the double and the voice of the foreign installation masquerading as the higher self.
