It's a tricky one selfishness.
If your on a journey to self-transcendence then the freer you arw from attachments (including other people and ideas) then the more potential you have to act selflessly.
However that kind of behaviour might well be interepreted as selfish by others.
I know one girl who became ordained - with the intention of realising universal compassion for everyone - her family just viewed as as selfish.
Very tricky subject.
