The greatest sign of a visionary teacher, is that they impart wisdom so deeply into their followers, that the students are able to overcome previously insurmountable challenges without the presence of their guide. The pupils evolve into new hybrid creations, unleashing their personal abilities with the infusion of their old mentor’s teachings.
This mystical process of enlightenment is evident throughout life. Think of Mufasa training young Simba in the “Lion King” how to honorably rule the Pride Lands, or Yoda mentoring young Luke Skywalker in the ways of the force, or even Dr. Dre teaching Eazy-E how to actually stay on beat while rapping.
