Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi discusses guidelines for teachers to bear in mind while in the classroom. The video starts with in an unknown language ant turns to English (1:04). Both languages are spoken throughout the talk. Rabbi Zalman mentions that students need to hear content in a transformative way. He says the work of people who teach is to raise people up-- he calls it up-leveling, i.e. teaching your subject as if it came from above. He says make room for inspiration, i.e. going off your topic if deflected by "sparks." You must become transparent and see yourself in the presence of God. The "carrier wave of love" makes it possible for teaching to be absorbed. He gives an exercise to combat the ego/persona of the person to open the heart. From this place you begin to teach. The film ends with a prayer read from the Dream Assembly.
