  Are we meant to be a Rebbe?

  This idea of the teacher totally concealing his intellect- are we meant to strive to accomplish this every time we interact with another individual? As in, every time we encounter someone, we should totally make ourselves "concealed" and make absolute total space for the other? As I write this, I'm saying to myself that the answer is obviously yes because this is true connection with another. But isn't this a very tall task? Is this something we are actually able to accomplish? This sounds like the level of the Rebbe based off hearing the so many stories of people who met with him. Would it be accurate to demand of ourselves such a level? 
  
  

  Thank you

    please look into following the 7 noachite laws - as this is your true obligation 

    when you see the real truth make sure you do like maimonidies says

    Melachim uMilchamot - Chapter 8

    Anyone who accepts upon himself the fulfillment of these seven mitzvot and is precise in their observance is considered one of "the pious among the gentiles" and will merit a share in the world to come.

    This applies only when he accepts them and fulfills them because the Holy One, blessed be He, commanded them in the Torah and informed us through Moses, our teacher, that Noah's descendants had been commanded to fulfill them previously.

    However, if he fulfills them out of intellectual conviction, he is not a resident alien, nor of "the pious among the gentiles," nor of their wise men.
