Spiritual Teacher?!
in Spirituality ·
righteous one:
_________________________
1. So, Master, how are things going with you?
__________________________
"How OTHER 'fathers' are doing."
(An old-school, secular way of putting it, quite different from the Master's approach)
righteous one:

2. Do you happen to hold any sort of certification for your mastery?
_________________________
And just who exactly are you looking to be validated by?
If you are out here hunting for a "certificate," righteous one, then what is even the point of this entire discussion?
If you already know which institutions are authorized to hand out such credentials, then surely you must also know who—and what—constitutes a true spiritual teacher?
Is this little interrogation merely a way for you to pass the time between meals?

3. Have you earned respect as a Master from those you have actually helped, or just from people who don't even know you?
_________________________
You really are just entertaining yourself between meals, aren't you?
Claiming to be "respected" by people who haven't even realized you assisted them is a hollow boast.

4. Can you provide even a single example of a method you've used to help a confused soul, drawn from your own experience as a Teacher?

Less talking, more listening—that should be your starting point. 😎 🙄
