My understanding is that any genuine transformation can take place only when it
comes from</span></font><font face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-family:
"Times New Roman";mso-ascii-font-family:Gulim;mso-bidi-font-family:Gulim'> </span></font>
deeps of one's being.<br>
<br>
In that context, I think I was trying to turn "Be Prepared to Be
Surprised!" into "Be Prepared to Surprise Yourself!"<br>
<br>
This turns me from "a passive waiting" mode to "passionate, yet
responsible waiting" mode both from the view point of practitioner and
participants.<br>
<br>
Actually I found myself being surprised by observing both those who seemed
genuinely excited (surprised) and not: I learn from both instances and assume
that participants will do the same. Surprise may come from both the unknown
(anyone or the mystery) and myself.<br>
<br>
Being a novice user of the technology, I may try this as one of para-phrases of
the original.<br>
