Story 96 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing'by Ian McCrorie
.

My teacher in India eventually attracted so many students that
he began to appoint assistants to lead retreats on their own.I began assisting him in 1996 and soon was made a senior
assistant teacher. I led ten-day retreats throughout Canada,the United States, England, Myanmar, and India. I especially
enjoyed addressing the many issues my students faced, mostof whom were dealing with the daily shock of seeing into the
skittishness of their minds for the first time. I was on a missionto spread the teachings, I had status and prestige within the
community of meditators, and my personal practice wasstrong. How my life had changed!...
