Peanuts or Shells?

 

There are teachers and speakers everywhere.

The truth "When the student is ready, the teacher appears,"

is not magical coincidence, but rather

the person learns when ready, from whomever,

and whomever becomes the teacher.

Do not pour tea on a covered pot.

There are teachers and speakers everywhere,

but those who seek and know the truth

are quiet and hidden.

They do not want to be found.

When you meet one,

you will see why they do not want to be found.
