Interaction Is Our Teacher
Our path isn’t about what we know; that is the path of fame and gain. Our path is transforming information into wisdom – genuine experience – otherwise, we are doing Mara’s work.
It is only through our interactions that we can test our realisation. How we react indicates the level at which we’re working – do we want to communicate or just compete?
The person we’re communicating with is our teacher. By avoiding interaction, we want to feel safe, and that is not the path to enlightenment; that is being imprisoned by facts and concepts.
We may be very good at repeating our history books,
but we totally miss the present moment.
