Advise to someone is wasted, if not sought for specifically.
Training someone on something is meaningless, unless the person has a need for
it, more so wants to be trained. Coaching someone is a waste, if the coachee is
not serious about an issue. Where someone gives, but the other is not ready to
receive, it is a complete waste. The teacher and the student must both be
present, for learning to begin, the coach and coachee must both be ready for
the coaching to begin. The advisor and the one who seeks it must both me
present for advice to flow. In fact, when the student is ready the master
appears, when the dancers are ready, the dance begins, when the performers are
present, the performance begins. Then the dancers disappear, just the dance
remains, the singers disappear, the song remains, the poets disappear, the poem
remains.
When two humans interact: they either connect with the mind
or heart. The former is intellectual, and satisfying in the short term, but not
satisfying in the long run. However, when hearts are connected, that is
something else.
In an intellectual discussion the question is answered. Then
another question arises, then that is answered and it goes on and on. One
question follows another: the unknown becomes the known or sought to be known.
When hearts connect, the question seems to be getting
answered, but actually the answer is directed to the questioner. A connect
answers the real question, not just the question. It answers the question
asked, not asked (edited) and also the questions unasked (also asked). There is
no question which gets answered. It is just that over time the questions seem
to disappear. It seems absurd to ask a question. What is, is. There are no
question.
Trust replaces doubt. The questions drop, the question
become silent, the questioner ceases. Then no coach is required; everything
around seems like a coach is present. Then the dancers appears: everything
seems like a dance. Then the masters appear.
