It seems that intuitive listening requires us to still our minds until the beauty of things older than our minds can find us.
Intuitive listening is a profound skill that compels us to calm our thoughts, allowing us to connect with deeper truths that transcend our own experiences. By quieting our minds, we create space for the wisdom of the world around us to resonate within us, facilitating a more profound understanding of life’s beauty.
Mark Nepo, in his book "Seven Thousand Ways to Listen: Staying Close to What Is Sacred," emphasizes that this approach is essential for recognizing the significance of things that predate our individual thoughts. Engaging in this type of listening enables us to appreciate the sacredness in life, fostering a richer, more meaningful existence.
