SUPREME WEALTH

"It is through listening that your mind will turn with faith and devotion, and you will be able to cultivate joy within your mind and make your mind stable. It is through listening that you will be able to cultivate wisdom and be able to remove ignorance... Listening is like a torch that dispels the darkness of ignorance. And if you are able to make your mental continuum wealthy through listening, no one can steal that wealth. It is supreme wealth." HH the Dalai Lama

Gorgeous!

The hardest part of this for me is listening to myself. Guess that's my lesson for now...

Love.

i had a wonderful mentor early on in my career. he once told me 'the orifice of learning is the ear, not the mouth. stop talking and listen. you'll learn something every time.'

indeed.

And what is it that you're listening to that's made this relevant?

The more I listen, the more I learn that I have so much more to learn.
