Definition of a Great Teacher according to Abraham-Hicks

IMG_3514_a_320.jpg

Esther Hicks, channeling Abraham , listed the qualities of a great teacher in her seminar in Washington D.C. on October 18, 2003. The following is a transcription from the tape of that seminar.

" A great teacher is a fabulous student, someone who understands where you are, understands where you want to go, and helps you to build easy bridges to get there.

A great teacher is always looking at where you want to go, and not looking at where you've been.

A great teacher never asks you to justify why you are where you are, but instead looks optimistically with you to where you are going.

A great teacher loves where he is, but doesn't demand that you be in the same place.

A great teacher honors where you are, and encourages movement from from where YOU are, to where YOU want to be, and leaves where HE is, and where HE wants to be out of your equation.

A great teacher will hide under the bed when it's appropriate." (that last comment was a joke about an earlier question) I think it means he'll get out of your way if necessary.
