As you
help people and
respond to their potential,
it should all be clear and free. You mustn’t
roll around in the nest of weeds or play with your
spirit in the ghost cave. If the supposed teacher uses
contrived concepts of “mysteries” and “marvels” and “the
essence of truth”, if he cocks his eyebrows and puts a gleam
in his eye and cavorts around uttering apt sayings and thereby
binds the sons and daughters of other people’s families
with doctrines he claims are absolute realities, then
he is just one blind man leading a crowd of
blind people — how can this produce
any genuine expedient
teaching?
