January 3, 2015 practicing listening 26-mile meditative run,"The hearing that is only in the
ears is one thing. The hearing of the understanding is another. However, the
hearing of the spirit is not limited to any one faculty, to the ear, or to the
mind. Hence, it demands the emptiness of all the faculties. In addition,
when the faculties are empty, then the whole being listens. There is then a
direct grasp of what is right there before you that can never be heard with the
ear or understood with the mind."
