In these modern times, many claim knowledge without the living teacher-student relationship which is intrinsic to this tradition and to the digestion of wisdom that can only be passed "chest to chest". With the guidance and attention of an experienced practitioner who has treaded the path before you allows for enlivened learning and true utilization of the material. Through the teacher-student relationship we gain not just "information" but living wisdom that may mature and grow over time.
