What exactly is the mentor-disciple bond? It is the bond that spurs a disciple to make their best efforts to be of service to the mentor. It is the bond that spurs a disciple to work hard to develop ability, become a fine, respectable person and live up to the mentor's expectations. It is the bond that spurs a disciple to report victory to the mentor.
