If you don't want any part of him/her, you would not want even to listen to that person to find for yourself if he or she says anything valuable or not; you limit yourself because of your prejudice about that person. I always listen before I judge that he or she brings something new and valuable to me. Will you listen to that person anyway, without prejudice?

Well, I would want no part of him,her or it, depending upon which species or planet the World Teacher hailed from. To study the ideas is one thing, to be a follower is quite another. Anyone coming along claiming, seriously and not joking like I did, to be the World Teacher is someone I would not waste my time with because he is going to be either a liar or a lunatic or a combination of the two.

You said that
"No one who values independent thought would welcome any World Teacher. "
I value idependent thought and I still value a World Teacher!
For me, Krishnamurti might be called a World Teacher, since people from all over the world appreciate his writings. For me, Ly Hong Chi is also another world teacher, since his book "Zhuan Falun" is a kind of Bible for Falun Gong, and there are about 100 millions of practitioners from all over the world.:

I think independently, but I still respect the people who can teach me something new.

No one who values independent thought would welcome any World Teacher.
The concept is a bizarre anachronism left over from the same mindset that
produced the dictators of the period between the two world wars and one that
we would do well to throw into the ashcan of history along with those
dictators.

I,ve just got back from work and im l.ooking at the site the world teacher
may not be welcomed with open arms in the modern world and what he teaches
maybe regarded by the chinese and the established order who hold power over
people by the power over might not like the power too,co create to break
them mould and the system might not like what he says.The chinese don,t like
the dalia llama and what he does and other buddhist leaders around the
world are not loved by muslims catholics and other people, the results may not
be as predicted and different to those idealists who predict things as to
teachers.The ts in kingston has a challenge and do the job the ts requires
a theosophist to do..as a matter of coarse.which we do in action. The
religious world is dominated by books and creeds and baggage that goes with it.
and thats the problem and interpretation of tho_se books is the
problem.The nature of teaching a code of ethics values and morality has
has become different kettle of fish from the stone age copper bronze and iron
age and early steel ages and the world will probally not axcept its dogmas
being challenged by a person who walks out of the dessert on a camel.
Thats our homework for sunday to look at how new approaches to ethics values
and morality can be applied in practice.It will take a new type of leader and
some 3 dimentional lateral thinking edward de bono style to get bit right
and that requies a new mind set.
