The ‘taught’ is listening and the teacher is teaching.
A stage comes where they so intimately understand each other that the ‘taught’ becomes the teacher in turn. One who is taught becomes the teacher because his mind and the teacher’s mind have become one; there is no division between the two.
This comes only with a great deal of work, a great deal of exercise, more like mind exercise—the exercise of one’s thought process.

• March 04, 2017 at 07:52 AMTamil translation of the above quote is submitted to the Lotus feet of Guruji:
ஸ்ரீ எம் கூறினார்:
" 'கற்பவர்' கேட்டுக்கொண்டு இருக்கின்றார்.
ஆசிர்யர், கற்பித்துக்கொண்டு இருக்கின்றார்.
அப்படிப்பட்ட ஒரு நிலையில், இருவரும் 'ஆத்மார்த்தமாக,
ஒருவரைஒருவர் புரிந்துக்கொண்டு, அதனால் கற்பிப்பவர்
கற்பவராகவும் கற்றவர் கற்பிப்பவராகவும் ஆகிவிடுகின்றனர்.
கற்றவர் ஆசானாக ஆகிவிடுவது எதனால் என்றால்,அவரது மனமும்
ஆசானின் மனமும் ஒன்று பட்டுவிடுகின்றது;அவர்களிருவரின்
இடையிலும் பேதம் இல்லை.
இப்படிப்பட்ட மேல்நிலை, மிகவும் கடினமாக உழைப்பாலும்,மிகவும்
சிறப்பாக அப்பியாச பயிற்சிகள் செய்ததனாலும்,சொல்லப்போனால்,
ஆன்மா, அறிவுப்பயிற்சிகளின் சிந்தனைஆஆற்றலின்மூலம்--தான்
அமைகின்றது." ஸ்ரீ எம்
Teacher always learner as well as taught ,Both are making journey to know the ultimate as they wish. In relation to what they decided, whether in materialistic or spiritual ,what ever it may be ..Teacher always teach what the student needed at the time ready to digest ..as he knows where the student to be reach .Both are there, as they are interrelated in the frame work to be carried out.
In journey they both together becomes one..without any boundaries ...
Indeed it's true.
Aptly put.
Also a teacher is a learner, as well. The day the teacher gives up learning, the teaching too loses it's potency.
