The Snobbish Hostility Of It All

If your Christmas letter to friends, family and relatives is positioned to brag about how connected and popular you are with "with-it" persons and "very important people", you really are a snob that dislikes other and you are attacking them by boasting that you are higher on the social ladder than they are.

Now that may be so, but success at group-living ordinarily corresponds to a lack of self-development.

And if answering the call of God means that one is to live a life of service to humanity and the self by startling self-improvement, where does that leave your high social standing?

It indicates that you follow Lera, not the Mother. It reminds you that next year's Christmas letter is in need of some drastic editing and rewriting.
