The first day was always the same; the new student in his class was always late. The typical rule was to meet at sunrise; however, it was not Tían Velvar’s rule. He strictly began directly at sunrise; if a student did not arrive before hand, he usually released his sarcastic behavior ruthlessly. This was no exception on the very first day of training.
The master sat in a meditation stance. He did not move a single muscle in his position. Even so, he was perfectly aware of his surroundings. He knew that the sun had come up and the student wasn’t present. He was sick of the other masters saying to be at training at sunrise; he wished that one time his new student would come before the rise. Yet, to this date it had never happened, even with the early birds.
Mentally the master kept vigilant. As the student entered, he demonstrated his sarcastic disposition clearly. “It seems that you have become old in the time it took you to be late,” Tían chuckled. “All your hair must have fallen out in your lengthy sleep.” Of course, it was obvious that the student was not old, but the teacher did not restrain himself from such comments. Even though his eyes were closed, he could still tell the features of his pupil. Whenever a new student arrived at the time the other masters preferred, he tended to make fun of unique characteristics. “Training begins at sunrise. You are to arrive beforehand.”
