I would think that a teacher would care enough about his/her students to make certain.... absolutely certain... that the students were clear on the subject. m's inability or lack of desire to clarify himself to the very people that are looking to him to teach them... shows the nature of this beast. Ohh and btw... 10-20 years after the fact is not really justifiable.

This boiler-plate ex-premie argument is bullocks. First of all, even the best teacher cannot make a student understand a difficult topic. Look at the good teacher in an inner city school who has to contend with an insufferable class of students. To say it is their fault when their students don't learn shows incredible immaturity and irresponsibility.

Maharaji asked for a few things you didn't come through on, which I can say because we are having this conversation today: Trust, Persistence, Guilessness. Whatever the justification you come up with, you just haven't followed through. Those who can, continue to learn about something that is nothing short of magic.

Sorry mate, the teacher continues to deliver on a promise he has never broken (at least with me). It is you who removed yourself from the equation.
