In the third stage of adult-hood, intelligent attention has to be paid not only to one's own advancement and the advancement of the family and society but also to the advancement of the people generally. That too is the responsibility of the grown-ups and they must acquire the skills necessary. They must have wider visions of the peace and prosperity of all mankind, and try to contribute to both, within the limits of their capacity and resources.

I would never use the word 'mastery.' I have no respect for that term. I think it is very male and very arrogant. I don't think that there is any such thing as a master. I mean, 'master' suggests that there is something under you - usually a slave. It's the mastery of the world that has gotten us into the mess we're in!
