Kathy,
 
  First of all, it is not the world that is the mirror.  It is Truth
that is the mirror.  We are the world, you and I; and the world is a
reflection of our consciousness via the mirror of truth.

  Have you not read my posts in which I have said speak only the truth
which has been tested in the crucible of one's life experience?  If it
is not your truth (holistic and nondualistic), it is the illusion of
belief that you will be propagating.  It is belief that is responsible
for our divided world through the medium of  political and religious
cults.  The zeal of the missionary is fueled by the fear of standing
alone in their belief.
  
  Remembrance and learning are knowledge bound, therefore not fully
understood.  This is the mischief played by a dualistic mind.  One
would have to be sedated by the pleasures of blind belief not to see
problems exhibiting themselves on the net.  Perhaps you are not clear
as to what a problem is?  Problems arise when the experience of one's
conceptualized perceptions are not fully understood.  Kathy, all who
live in their minds, live in these not fully understood concepts.
That is what produces the atmosphere of suffering and confusion on
this earth.

  You have thrown out something you have heard in your experience of
life, but do not fully understand.  Yet you pass it on to another as
if you do understand it, with the motive of holding another to your
confused standard. That, Kathy, is what hypocrisy is all about.

   What you have said in this post is partially true (only at the
level of intellectual cogitation), as it keeps one at the linear level
of action/reaction.  That intellectual level must be transcended for
understanding to be.  In other words, the mind must end its habitual,
dualistic busywork before clarity can manifest in consciousness.

   Kathy, will all due respect, your intentions are good; but you know
the old saying about "the road to hell is paved with good intentions."
                                                Ray
