Importance of Teachers

Lineage Holders What does it mean to hold the teachings of past masters? Links in a chain that stretches back in time,we walk the fine line between honoring what came before and birthing a new vision as vast as the dance of the deities. What keeps a lineage vibrant,enlivens practices with the energy of truth and transformation? What weaves individual souls into the whole cloth of tradition, and a great work moving forward through the ages?It is remembrance and the willingness to let go of form. It is bold dreams and fearless action. It is taking the teachings into the fray of everyday life,saying yes to what the moment holds. It is intractable chaos and creative commitment. It is blazing a trail,bushwhacking in the dark without a flashlight. It is riding a wave of truth with the power to change the landscape and the lives of all it touches. Whether we chose the path or it chose us,we can shake the dust from our feet and walk forward - each step a part of the lineage unfolding. -Danna Faulds
