Notice the emphasis placed on listening in the spiritual traditions-Krishna tells Arjuna, "Listen to my Supreme Word." Jesus says, "My sheep will hear my voice." The sacred Jewish prayer begins, "Hear O Israel." What is it to listen, to hear and become receptive, a vessel, an opening? Listen.

What is the use of fault finding, of criticizing and blaming others? It is a disease of the mind that infects everyone. Appreciation is the cure. Accept others as they are.
