Not differentiating between any one thing & any other thing.

Daniel Cramer - Heart Process of a Rosicrucian Meditator: I Live, I Am Healed, I Am Endangered, I Am Crucified, I Meditate, I Am Redeemed, I Become Sweet, I Am Nothing, I Outweigh, I Build Myself Up (top to bottom), “The Rosicrucian Emblems”, 1617. “And so, Reader, you have the work of Death and Life, The embossings of the Holy page, and a short epigram. These will be able to show and teach your Mind What your state was once and what it may become today.”

Commercialism or a Police Raid:

A cult either manages to turn itself into a harmless institution or it becomes progressively more extremist until the state decides to smash it. A genuine Magical Order will be engaged in psychic guerrilla warfare against all black cults and religions including materialist philosophies. In such a cult every man is his own priest. Any member has the right to teach any other member anything he knows. No member has the right to claim any secret within the Order beyond the secret of his own identity if he wishes it. Unlike cults and religions, a genuine Order will not admit people on a number-for-its-own sake basis. Vitality can only be maintained by quality control at the intake. Whatever hierarchy arises within an Order will be a reflection of demonstrable ability. Attempts to use the various tricks of the teacher enumerated in this section will be immediately spotted and ridiculed. There is only one justification for the existence of a genuine Magical Order — to enable individuals to take control of their own spirituality. And that is a very heroic and dangerous objective. Watch out for the Police Raid.

"The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal."
