Since you ask for my credentials, not that I think they should count for much here, a PhD in Metaphysics, certified trainer in "Capacitar" Wellness practices, Reiki master.

I don't think credentials are needed for your justification, and I whole-heartedly agree with your sentiments that happiness, insight, and enlightenment are for all. I believe that when one gains a knowledge of a subject beyond the 'average' person, there is a degree of obligation to share that knowledge to help others, when asked for. It's not just the seeker/learner that gains new insight and knowledge, but the giver/teacher also should be learning through the experience as well, furthering the overall body of knowledge and understanding for the individuals involved.
