“(…) as any one can perceive, your social as your private life is not based upon a common moral solidarity but only on constant mutual counteraction and purely mechanical equilibrium of individual powers and interests… If you would be a Theosophist [NA: which means “Altruist”], you must not do as those around you who call on a God of Truth and Love and serve the dark Powers of Might, Greed and Luck.” (Adept. In C. Jinarajadasa, editor. Letters from the Masters of the Wisdom, 2nd Series, Letter 82, p. 155; emphasis added)
