Teaching?

When I started teaching, my principal once said ‘teaching your subject is just a medium to communicate something else, something much more significant’.

Perhaps intuitively I could understand what he was trying to say? I could also see that when he would interact with his students, while teaching his subjects English, Math or Physics, apart from learning the subjects, students would get much more.

What is this something else? Whatever it is, it is quite a liberating feeling.

Is it knowing oneself?

It is something which connects us.

It is something that is life

Still exploring…………

Be in touch with it always.

Is it something what Albert Einstein means by Education in the following quote -

Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school. ~Albert Einstein
