Hmmm.. at times its intresting like magick is such a world away from theirs that they deny its exsistance, their minds rationalise the everything from things. An alien could walk down a high street stark naked save a pair of florecent pink boots and a smile, perhaps a few sparkles for effect and people wouldn't bat an eye lid... or you could print that it was a disney promotion aid the rational mind set and it'd cover it up.
Share in the Grrrrr! Mentality though, met a soulmate a while ago, shared a powerful connection with the lady, could see through her at times we were so close... as in through her day to day experience, she wasn't translucent as such .lol. But she was blind to it and what it meant, happy to swap what would have been a good friendship for someone who could help her aspirations to fame... lol... she wanted to be a star and didn't realise that we were one.
It might just be the tute tutelage I've received from the egregores and such, but its been a one-to-one scenario, so the whole idea of another individual learning off of another human honestly feels preposterous and ridiculous.
I feels like being taught neijia by somebody who has been practicing for seven years. If you wish to take me up on the example, I started practicing when I was seven with a fifty eight year old grandmaster from E Mei. The years do make a difference.
I understand that its inherently necessary to learn from each other and such, but I just never really understood to turn to an individual to help massively improve or learn entirely new disciplines of the art.
