There are few master teachers in life. ... But there are many who can listen to life so well that they can hear the vastness in everything and in you.

In the end, we may find out more by not following our teachers but by following what our teachers follow for themselves. From a good teacher you may learn the secret of listening. You will never learn the secrets of life. You will have to listen for yourself.
