Steve, I share your reasonings, but I might pose this question:

Would I, you, we, serve better with or without boost? The spiritual boost is supposed to influence our mind by fresh energy and enthusiasm. Would the boost promote ego or a serving attitude?

The boost may even be a test, whoever develops ego fails the test, whover develops a serving attitude passes the test.

I would just love to be tested though.

But maybe the test is just waiting patiently for the above test.

So we have a preliminary test, which is just: waiting for the test proper. The wait may be a very long one.
Then we have the test proper: a nice spiritual experience which may boost our pride or our altruism and unselfishness.

If our pride is boosted, than we are back to the preliminary test
