People everywhere on Earth need to start learning that the accumulation of Being is more important than the accumulation of Facts. They already sense that fact of life at a superficial level, and you can see many who have actually accumulated what seems to be substantial Being, even without Higher School. You know, like what's written in "If - by Rudyard Kipling." That's a good start, but certainly not the "end of the story!" Of course, WITH Higher School Knowledge, this becomes slightly if not greatly more efficient in every way - depending on the person, and "where they have come from, and where they have been" (so to speak) - and not so hit-and-miss as it is out there in Crazy Town.
This is how "good people" turn bad, and "bad people" turn worse, and it's very hard to get a leg up on this situation. No Aim. No Direction. No Discipline. Certainly NOT for their budding "Desire for the Higher", although many do express such things for their poorly-formed-by-circumstances-and-genetics desire for riches, fame, popularity, greed, lust, and many other low-life things such as those.
It is certainly possible to quote chapter-and-verse from some "Good Book" by whatever name it happens to currently go, but it is better to learn the One Big Idea first, and everything follows from there. You don't need exercises, rules, methods, meditations, or anything else. Just the One Big Idea regarding the Higher Concept "BEING." People are always thoroughly tripped up by that concept because the species has been somehow given the unfortunately confusing scientific description, "Human Being", and then they instantly believe they already HAVE Being, unlike the non-human animals that didn't get that terminology stamped on their heads. This is similar to people's belief that they are AWAKE the instant their eyes open in the morning, till their eyes close at night while horizontal, and asleep. NOPE! People, as they are born, do NOT have Being, nor Higher Being, but have only the intimation, the smell, the taste, the sensation of something they can't comprehend or "English", just like they are NOT Awake, nor Enlightened, just because they are walking around and not comatose like utter Walking Zombies. Enter, Higher Schools and the subtle distinctions they can and successfully do make to those people who pay attention, and don't get distracted by silly beliefs, religious notions, fantasy stories and other such stuff.
Being, Awakened Being, Being Enlightened, is not about giving away your money to the poor, or being kind to animals, or even treating others "as yourself." Things like that are simply about being Human! The list is endless, and ALL Humans should already be doing all of that right now. But, try to write down a list of examples of Being, or Higher Being. People, as they are, don't even know where to start, and if they do start, they don't know where to stop.
(Hint, rolling up and out into Clue: Being, or Higher Being is much more about STOPPING than about STARTING. And of course, knowing what needs to STOP is crucial here, and the KEY to everything under the stars.)
