This traditional student teacher relationship, I suspect has faded.
Nevertheless the teacher in a confluence of mastery blends heart, mind and body together as a force and speaks from that that place often using metaphor and parables to communicate with the attempt to "taste" the experience of the student and thus allowing the student to model the teacher in a way.
Teachers and stewards know that to share too much of an experience by attempting to describe a profound and perhaps mystical experience can destroy its value. Words are reductive concepts can not possibly hold the full import of the experience. By reducing the experience to a description may destroy its significance.
Or when a student and teacher begin to vibrate at or near the same higher frequency sharing through words may be unnecessary.
This has happened to me. Fortunately, I was able to retrieve most of it.
Does this help?
