Hi,
"Regarding taking on acts of special piety which involve pain, one who wishes to identify as unique may do so, one who wishes to identify as a Torah scholar may do so.
"Regarding taking on acts of special piety which confer honour, not all who wish to identify as unique may do so, not all who wish to identify as a Torah scholar may do so, unless one has been appointed as a leader by the community…
"Rabbi Zeira said: Only, one may not take these on if that will disgrace others [who are not practicing thus]."
(Talmud Yerushalmi, Berachot 2:9)
המצפה לישועה,
Mordechai
