WHO IS THE OUTER TEACHER?
Who is the outer teacher? None other than the embodiment and voice and representative of our inner teacher. The master whose human shape and human voice and wisdom we come to love with a love deeper than any other in our lives is none other than the external manifestation of the mystery of our own inner truth. What else could explain why we feel so strongly connected to him or her?
– Sogyal Rinpoche
{Shown above, WF Teachers Ananda and Coach Ilg with one of their titanium children, “Grunt,” shortly after some Mountain Duathon training. The most genuine Teachers do not pamper or attempt to hook you into their ‘system’ or their ‘school’…the authentic Teacher merely Serves and attempts to shine an external Light on a Student’s hidden potential(s). The spiritual Teachers who are strong in their stance, never attempt to lead Students around their bodies..instead, they Teach them to use their precious bodies as a Vehicle of Transformation. Only through sweat is the spirit made pure. Photo by Student Shel.}
