First step I believe is to master our lower self - HPB was chosen as the best around at the time which indicates that her heart was in the right place although her behaviour left lots to be desired in these terms.

Assuming you are making a serious statement, may I suggest that
behavior is the path to enlightenment? When HPB said that (and I
paraphrase) occultism is altruism, wasn't she suggesting that it is
how we behave more than what we read that determines our progress in
the evolution of consciousness? How does a person attain
enlightenment in a material form without regard to behavior?
