I had a conversation with one of my Teachers yesterday… He shared with me something that really hit home… and I quote “Listen…. AND hear with your heart”.

I pondered this with a great big AHHAAA! I soooo get it, in life we seem to think that by listening we’re actually doing something. In reality, often times, we are simply listening enough to formulate what we want to say back in order to… be right, sound smart, have the last word, etc. etc…

With this statement by my “Krishna” I discovered something important, shocking I know. That listening is about hearing and truly listening occurs in our body, our heart, more than our ears. The gift of “hearing” what someone is sharing with us is truly a gift. It’s a moment in our lives where we experience connection, with ourselves and another sentient being. Pretty cool huh!

I wish for you today the gift of Krishna’s sharing, to not just listen but HEAR, and hear clearly with your heart!
