Yogi Bhajan Quotes on Teaching (Part 6)

I don’t care whether people say I am a good Teacher or a bad Teacher. I’m a right Teacher or a wrong Teacher, as long as I know there are teachings and I am carrying and sharing them as they are.

A Teacher is not judged by his popularity, his richness, his money, his knowledge, his essence. A Teacher is judged by his character.

A Teacher is a process to make saints, sages, givers, who are godly and graceful. A Teacher is a factory to manifest all this. A Teacher is not an egomaniac playboy.

You are a fountain of love, blessing, grace, bounty, beauty, and bliss, but you seek from your student public relations, admiration, appreciation. And then you proudly say that such-and-such model and such-and-such actor and such-and-such this comes to your classes. What do you teach, acting or reality?

Aasha: what you long for. Isht: your ultimate purpose. Upaasanaa: how you worship. Khann: what you eat. Paan: what you drink. Peheraan: what you wear. These things of yours should serve you uniquely to represent the power which comes through you. You cannot come one day as a clown, the next be very decorated, the third day a good-for-nothing, the fourth day hopeless, the fifth day beautiful. You shall not be in the presence of any person if you are not ready. And you shall be perfectly ready to serve the great teachings. That is the entitlement.
