EDUCATION- MASTER –DISCIPLE TRADITION
The Master-Disciple Tradition (MDT) offers experimental, experiential and exploratory
learning is a FREE LEARNING SYSTEM. This learning system offers morning, afternoon
and evening reading, explanation, rational understanding followed by contemplation,
reflection aimed at revelations by awakening intuitive, illuminative faculties. I had the
opportunity to learn under this tradition for over 20 years. Later, Himalayan Master
and a Living Legend initiated me into this tradition and his guidance still continues in my
life. I always experience myself like a humble student and learner, which inspires to
explore with humility and wisdom the secrets of life. One can learn simultaneously from
different masters in this eternal tradition which I did after completing graduation in
1979 until present.
