Training, Teacher, Student and the Bodhisattva Vow

[mradanac]

Hey Teach! It's been 40 years since I met you once in Brandon, Manitoba. Shook up my ego pretty good you did. While all the gurus in the 70's were fleecing their followers for all their money, you made me a bundle of cash during my six month spiritual course, and ended up on the front page in the Entertainment section of the Winnipeg Tribune for our Bunraku puppetry show. Hopefully I will be privileged to see you the next time around...Mike

Wow, sister, that was heavenly put.

I thought it was Harry but had that ounce of uncertainty, thanks.

EJ Gold seems to be the kind of teacher that allows each and every student to solve their own problems in their own way. Like in the art classes. He answers very few creative questions, well, none. He will answer anything else. The development of your art is your business. It is wonderful to see those arty flowers blooming. A great gardener providing a fertile ground for growth.

One of this universes best kept secret-can't remember which celebrity said that but it is true.

gmsm, ditto man, speaking from my own experience, he doesn't give shortcuts. you have to work for what you earn, and what you earn depends on the composition of your own inner life. it's a paradoxical relationship. a pure connection and obviously, a need for guidance, hand in hand with independence and responsibility. that is a formula for good learning. and, yea, it feels good to be situated in good soil!

many thanks to EJ,

leila
