"The Seeking of the Master. Musa Najib was asked why he charged a fee from those who came to his sessions; and why he often did not even address his audience. He said: 'I charge for this object lesson: people believe that knowledge must be given freely, and consequently mistake everything which is free for knowledge. I do not always lecture because, among Sufis, "The Master finds the pupil. The pupil has to be physically present: but he may be absent in every other sense. When I discern that a pupil is "present then I "find him, for then his inner call is audible to me, even if it is silent to him.' 'Seek and you will be found."
