Challenge Offers
You will offer to your audience the ways you want to. But here is the secret, in case it was not obvious: this whole training is built on the Four Noble Truths. So what did the Buddha do after his awakening? I would like you to follow that path in your offering.
Your cherished friends
After awakening, the Buddha wanted to share what he had found; his original inspiration was to end suffering for everyone, not just himself. The first people he met could not understand him. So he asked himself: who would understand this, with just the right amount of guidance? He remembered the five friends he had practiced austerities with for six years before the seven weeks of relaxed-focus meditation that woke him up. He walked from Bodh Gaya to Sarnath to teach them.
They were skeptical at first; nobody had come close to awakening with their old practice. But as they spent time with him, all five reached the same awakening, and went out into the world with it in their own ways.
Like that: offer to the people who understand the development of your path the most. Classmates, peers from training programs, old friends who care about your well-being. There will be discomfort in teaching people you studied alongside. But if they know you, and know you well, that is exactly the catalyst.
Your industry leader
Once his friends had awakened, it was time to reach new people. The Buddha remembered Uruvela Kassapa, a Brahman who led five hundred students in devotion to the fire god. He asked to stay with them. Kassapa wanted to decline, but the Buddha was persistent in a gentle way that gave no real grounds for refusal. So he lived among them and gave nudges and hints about how to actually be free from suffering.
Kassapa resisted for a long time. He had a lot of pride: highest caste, largest following. Over time he saw the truth: he was jealous of the Buddha, and that was what kept him from awakening. He became a student, stopped leading the fire faith, and all five hundred followed.
This is the hard one. It asks you to go to the leader of your industry and talk about doing their practice, which they have obviously done very well, differently, the way you suggest. It took time for Kassapa to open up; this will take time too.
The nuance matters. Remember what an offer is not: you are not approaching from superiority, and you are not telling them your way is better. You are giving them a chance to see from your perspective, to try your path, because they may be too deep in their own to think freely. You must believe your path has something to give even to them.
