Is it true that most people don’t know these spiritual rules exist? I think most (all?) people have an intuition around this - in many cases buried, perhaps, but still there.
I feel like a lot of people these days either lack these intuitions or ignore them for intellectual reasons. Women are often better in this respect than men tbh.

Your distinction between group soul and group mind reminds me of this Ayn Rand quote:
"An irrational crowd can destroy a rational individual. But a team of rational men is invincible."
-Atlas Shrugged, Part III, Chapter 7

Killer post, and my experience thus far has been the same! Outside of not considering myself all that competent at much, hah.
