Kitobdan sitatalar «Тело шамана»

(...) the master's teachings are always somehow incongruent. They speak about living the nagual in everyday life, yet they always seem to take place mainly in an ashram or a wilderness. Most masters do not work in town. Most will not run for political office. (...)Why do great teachers live only in our dreams or in seclusion? Why does their path of heart take them into mountains or into an ashram? Is it because they do not value ordinary life? Or is it that some teachings do not deal with relationships, everyday life, and today's world? Perhaps we must become the new teachers, who sit in the midst of a fist-fight or a race riot and claim that this is the right hunting ground. Teachers who say that fights are bad, that people should not riot, and that the city is somehow wrong may simply mean that, like us, they do not know how to deal with the world as it is.
