“Be mindful that no Master, however capable, can help a disciple unless that disciple helps himself by his own willingness and efforts. If you were simply a blind follower you could not have accomplished all this. The task of a seeker is not merely to acquire the mechanics of certain techniques but to be. The correct psychological disposition is achieved only after you grow out of a sense of selfishness.” —From the Book
