In any persons that believe in a deity there is a light or energy that is described to associate with that meaning. Whatever this source is, it has to be the same thing regardless of our words(outside of our deffinitions). How then does it cross over so poorly in description to others? Is the path simply were not supposed to know? So perty much just anything will happen, if the expectation was set.
I suspect its just the tool for individuality in a field of wholeness. Though, that doesnt explain why its like rubbing matches on a striking board.

There are two basic paths.
The path I have named "Virgin" begins in the dark and grows into the light. Those who follow this path are warm, caring, and heart based. They need the light of understanding to complete their spiritual journey. This is a rare understanding in the West where we value intellect.
The other path that I have named "Apprentice" begins in the light and grows into the darkness. Those who follow this path are intellectual, calculating, and selfish(ego based). This path is all about opening the heart and feeling emotion in order to be whole and complete the spiritual journey.
So, many in the West (Gnostic, Alchemy, Freemasons) would consider growing 'The Light' moving backwards and thus growing the ego.

Its possible to grow into the light and not tread the other path, but as you said much more rare. The source is not ours, but for us. Conveying that from a single perspective makes it "seem" to be from them, and can quickly turn into that. Sometimes to the point where the person will think thier people "can't live" without them, like with what happened in south America. As weve seen, that self destructs since its reliant on the person and that person will take the weight even though its God's (deity). Besides most fall to greed anyway, since its so readily available.
