I think the problem may have been that he was going to try to "enlighten us." You know they got the secrets and all. <--- sarcasm.

Like any style its not all teachers some are good and some are bad THAT GOES WITHOUT SAYING!

But from what i felt personally in thailand and across the boards from here, other sites, youtube, its the same thing wrapped in a different color from place to place.

I mean truly and honestly they dont get any respect in thailand so maybe that's the main thing with the whole attitude. Any kaimuay, nakmuay or ajaan will just laugh at the idea of them kicking their asses--- So one side laughs at the other. So i guess its equal.

Well I shared this info because I think that a Chaiya teacher saying these kind of things
and being open to other styles and techniques does stand out,
as you said one just needs to look around even just here on the forum to see what the tune is.
