On the subject of reacting to whoever and whatever, 
one might wonder who or what is watching the watcher 
of the watcher of the watcher of the watcher of the 
watcher of the watcher of the watcher of the watcher of 
the watcher, and so on to logical infinity, of the 
"myself" that's reacting ... If there isn't a logical 
ultimate reality to such watchers, other than as per 
whatever initial assumptions (as per one's 
exoteric/logical notions about such as "Higher and 
Higher and Higher Self," etc, without logical end), then 
wouldn't there be some sense (as by way of interest, at 
least?) in somehow transcending, or in at least aspiring 
to transcend, certain kinds of merely logical, karmic, 
mayavic evaluations (re "forms of existence"?), to some 
extent, in favor of, say, some forms of intuitive (or even 
speculative ... ^:-) "evaluations" or somewhat 
esoteric/experiential experiences, maybe, in a sense, in 
some cases ... Not that some helpful clues aren't 
basically/logically available, obviously enough, in many 
ways, but if there are some "Theosophic types" (for 
example?) who might have some interest in 
transcending karma, well ... ^:-) ...

Speculatively,
Mauri

PS I guess that was another shot at trying to find 
words that might "explain" something about what might 
be called the "basic differences" between "exoteric" 
and "esoteric/Occult." Not that we don't all "logically" 
know about such things.
