When the student is ready, the teacher will appear


I have always been in awe of Kahlil Gibran's writings - since the time I was introduced to his works when I was in my teens. I chanced upon the piece I posted earlier while searching on what famous wise ones had to say about lotuses. Though I had read The Prophet before, I can't say I remember everything the book entailed. And so, it took me by surprise when I read SELF KNOWLEDGE, and almost immediately realised how aptly it answered the many questions that had been hovering in my mind for some time now.

Is it true then that "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear"?

...it seems so, doesn't it?
