I think perhaps you are missing an important point about service-to-others... generally speaking the service must be first requested by the other. Pushing your service onto another who has not requested it is a spiritual violence, and ultimately depolarizing.

I don't need you to explain anything to me. I have my own internal guidance system, thank you very much. Oh, and by the way, trying to get others to acknowledge oneself as an external authority on spiritual matters is "STS" behavior. I would "warn" you of the dangers of styling oneself as a spiritual authority... but you haven't asked and it wouldn't make a difference, would it?
Shin'Ar, I invite you to consider Tenet's words here. One of the core tenets of the Law of One is that free will must always be respected. Assistance is provided in response to a call. We may offer help if we perceive a call, but if our offer is declined, we must honor that.
In fact, an example is given by Ra of 2 STO Wanderers who imposed their knowledge on a community, and woke up "disconcerted" to find they had polarized STS!
The Law of One isn't a religion or dogma, and there are no authorities. Our community, as a whole, will balk at anyone who tries to assert any sort of spiritual authority. Not even Carla, the channel of the material, puts herself in an authority role.
