From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secret of life. You will have to listen for yourself
There are few master teachers in life. ... But there are many who can listen to life so well that they can hear the vastness in everything and in you. A teacher is someone who has learned to listen to life. Someone who has found a way to listen well. Any real teacher is only a finger pointing.

You will never learn the secrets of life. You will have to listen for yourself.
