I am sure you are right, but it should be pointed out
that according to every spiritual teacher I am aware
of, sitting around reading and doing nothing else is
not going to lead to any sort of spiritual progress. 
I am not saying they are right, but I am saying that
seems to be a consensus opinion of every spiritual
teacher including Blavatsky herself, who warned
against "manasic" development in isolation. Sort of
like someone trying to become a well rounded body
builder by just doing a little arm wrestling.
