‘I believe that one of the primary roles of a teacher or guide is to reflect our basic wisdom and joy back to us so we can see for ourselves that these beautiful qualities are a part of us. Seeing them for ourselves helps us to believe in them maybe for the first time in our lives.’ (Love and Rage)
This feels hugely important to me; I have experienced this from my teachers, and I hope that I am able to offer this to those who look on me as a teacher: just a simple reminder of the human qualities we all innately possess, but often feel are lacking or deficient within us.

Isn’t it clever that the things we need the most we get from each other!
