Difficult people can be good teachers, just listen and watch.
Wise people fill the inside; they sacrifice the superficial for the essential. Observe the world, trust your inner vision, allow things to come and go, your heart will be as open as the sky.
If your senses are too cluttered with objects, they lose their acuteness and will eventually decay. Once you let go of desires, your heart naturally overflows with love. Whatever happens is alright; just reflect on whatever appears, without Judgement, whether a flower or garbage, a saint or criminal. Treat your anger or grief with compassion.
If you are sincere you have success in your heart and whatever you do succeeds. In teaching you must be consistent for its only through repetition that the pupil makes the material his own.
Quote: Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. Rumi
