Andre,

Neither you nor dmb get to choose which of RMP's statements are to be accepted 
and which are to be rejected.  He wrote to expand understanding not to inhibit 
it, so this statement is be considered too.

"When Phaedrus first went to India he'd wondered why, if this passage of 
enlightenment into pure Dynamic Quality was such a universal reality, did it 
only occur in certain parts of the world and not others? At the time he'd 
thought this was proof that the whole thing was just Oriental religious 
baloney, the equivalent of a magic land called 'heaven' that Westerners go to 
if they are good and get a ticket from the priests. Now he saw that 
enlightenment is distributed in all parts of the world just as the color yellow 
is distributed in all parts of the world, but some cultures accept it and 
others screen out recognition of it. ..."

   (RMP, 'LILA', Chapter 32)
