In what way did the Adept appear and tell him?
What do you mean by "opportunities and rewards"?

Am I to make the inference that an Adept told him that he was being
duped and wasting his time "following HPB"?

Does this mean that Adepts can have differing opinions and "side with"
individual members in a cause, hence promoting dissention?

Finally, I am not being flippant when I say, IMHO there's nothing easier
in life than "giving up everything and taking on a forlorn hope
challenge" when current life brings little peace or satisfaction.  What
appears to be "everything" is infact "nothing to lose". :)
Cheers
