Do I need a teacher, or can I practice on my own?

You are already practicing alone; a teacher shows you where you cheat. Sitting by yourself is real practice, and many begin that way. But the mind is clever at grading its own homework. It calls dullness peace and calls avoidance letting go. A teacher, or even a steady group, is a mirror you cannot fog. So sit on your own, and keep looking for someone who will see you. Tonight, sit fifteen minutes, then write one honest sentence about what actually happened.

This was one stranger’s question. In the app, you sit, say what is actually going on, and the teacher answers you, in a voice, privately. The first dokusan is free.
