"Many who long for a teacher or are attached to a teacher either don't want to take full responsibility (fear) or still cannot accept they actually have what they need (conditioning)."
I'd say also they have not met the right teacher. Attachments and not wanting to take responsibility are the fare of humanity, quite common and vast. So meeting the right teacher is a combination of having first the intent, and then enough power for it to be answered. So yes, it begins with the individual voicing this, and then the teacher is beckoned. In some cases its not that one sough a teacher, but simply their freedom. Its easy to forget that everything is co-interactive at all times. We use the word independence, but when are we ever truly alone? So what is meant by alone is to be with Spirit. If your teacher is with Spirit, and you are too, there is no difference between the two.
