How and What to Teach?

[zenmaster]

This experience gives me personal veracity to my idea of teaching through none action. In other words presenting someone with the seeds and the fertile dirt to plant in, and then letting them cultivate the seeds in their thoughts and in their experience causing them to really "get" the lesson. :-)

It's what Socrates was trying to do. If you get people to believe that it's their own idea, it's a much more compelling (real) idea. (the idea was their own idea to begin with as innate knowledge).
