Add vs. Uncover

“A true spiritual teacher does not have anything to teach in the conventional sense of the word, does not have anything to give or add to you such as new information, beliefs, or rules of conduct.

The only function of such a teacher is to remove that which separates you from the truth of who you already are and what you already know in the depths of your being.

The spiritual teacher is there to uncover and reveal to you that dimension of inner depth that is also peace.” | Eckhart Tolle, Stillness Speaks

I think this wisdom goes well beyond spiritual teachers. Every great coach – whether they hold that title or not – helps us connect more deeply with the depths of our being.
