Occult, Qabalah, Golden Dawn disillusionment

[Bluebell]

I feel very disinclined towards trying to convince others of its uses as I assume if one has no connection to it themselves then they likely won't get much more than confusion from me.

or maybe they're more interested in living life, like we're here to do.

Sure, although some people do actually include that as part of their lives. Again, why the need to refute those who do find benefit in the practice? 

i wasn't refuting. i was saying - or failing to say - that not interested doesn't mean not able. someone could have been a pianist in past lives but have no interest in playing because in their current life they wanted to explore something else. does that mean they don't understand music? no. does it mean music isn't valid or interesting? no.
