Thought for the Day

Structure, not milestones: how to get the benefits of a roadmap (energy, organisation, motivation) without mistaking the map for the work (i.e. staying alert and awake to your experiences with the infinite, instead of to the mortal grades and initiations you are acquiring). Tricky!

Thank you for pointing this out! I think you could call this the "skill tree" problem, with people wanting to say they hold all these ranks without much spiritual significance of any of them. There's things to talk about with that, but it's a separate issue.
