If you look at everything, a leaf, a tree, a professor, a child to learn from, then you are free, if you learn from just one teacher, parent or guru then you are a prisoner

If you look at everything, a leaf, a tree, a professor, a child to learn from, then you are free, if you learn from just one teacher, parent or guru then you are a prisoner.

If you only learn form one then you are living out there dreams, nightmares, fears and their projection of the world.

To learn from one, is to cut off, sacrifice the whole of everything.

For that one's interpretation of things.

You are a prisoner to their map of existence, you dance in the illumination of their projection.

You miss the movements of life, that are all around you, 

Information is everywhere if you have the eyes to see it.

To say that only one person has what I need, is to live a meaningless life of following.

How can you give another such power.

Learn from all, not one, if someone, anyone does something fully and completely then here is wisdom in that.

Whether it is turning on a coffee machine or writing a poem.

If it is done, fully, completely, then there is something to learn from it.

A leaf flows in the wind being no more or less than it is, it is complete in that moment.

So there is something to learn from that

There is something to see in that

Till you eventually see that there is nothing to learn, it is all you.

Everything is a projection of you.

All part of the dance.

If you hold on to something too tight you will no longer feel it,

Just the pain and the strain of your hand.

If you are always looking to one,

Then you miss everything else

There is nothing to learn 

Only to be experienced

Nothing to horde only to be felt.

You where never leaning from them anyway

You are only ever learning from yourself 

You were and are always seeing yourself through them.

And you can see yourself through anything 

Now is all there is and you just missed it looking for the answer.

True skills are without thought 

And the true guides and teachers have no idea that they are

The student cannot exist without the teacher 

And the teacher cannot exist without the student 

So neither exist

If you can see this, understand this

Then you will understand what true intelligence is

Knowledge is a dead thing

Intelligence is sensitivity, its living, its life 

Knowledge is static

Intelligence is doing

Knowledge is thought made

Intelligence is life itself 

Confuse knowledge for intelligence and you are never really here

No one taught you how to breath 

No one can teach you how to live

You are alive right now and you have all you need
