Characterestics of a Disciple



A disciple is able to think , speak and to act independently without serving the interests of separate parties. He is also able to keep silent, to renounce, and to disappear. He is often recognized by what he DOES NOT DO AND BY WHAT HE DOES NOT SAY OR EVEN THINK. He is able to not to follow associative suggestions and bribery; he keeps his mind clear.
His efficiency increases by the fact that his standards are high order, universal , and progressive. This gives him the chance to inspire people to strive to meet new standards of thinking, feeling, speaking, and acting.
Also a disciple is a person who sometimes escapes. A disciple does not always fight head on. Sometimes because of conditions, to escape is better than to fight. For example, if you try to fight a skunk, you will have problems. A dog knows this very well. Watch , what a dog when he encounters a skunk; He usually runs away from the skunk and leaves it alone.
