Be very careful when you join "spiritual societies". Without saying any names, most of these societies are 3-letter-agency plants that fool truly spiritual masters who are receiving intuitive knowledge and downloads and recruit them to leech knowledge and update their database. They NEED to do this because they are not receiving the latest knowledge - because you can't possibly be on the path of ascendance when you're caught up in secretive, violent affairs. They need to consolidate the most up-to-date spiritual knowledge from the truly awakened. They ere never masters to begin with. They have the factual knowledge and some formulaic teachings of real masters, but without the spiritual sophistication and context (of the grander truth gained only by self-experience) one would need to know. I've seen their headquarters, their faces, I've done a full reading (mind-connection) with the leaders of these "spiritual communities". These "wise" leaders are given factual esoteric knowledge leeched by 3-letter-agencies to fool people into thinking they're legit masters. In truth, they are just regurgitating stolen knowledge over the years. They're also easy to spot. As soon as you see someone with high spiritual knowledge but a very low degree of humbleness and spiritual sophistication - chances are - you are dealing with an agency plant.
