LISTEN
Once we have freed ourselves from the shackles of the ego we can advance forward on the ladder of Individual Consciousness. To do this you must be willing to listen, hear, and follow directions.
LISTEN, HEAR, AND FOLLOW
To listen means:
- To make an effort to receive information
- To pay attention
- To tune in
To hear means:
- To perceive information
- To become aware of directly through the senses
- To achieve understanding of something
To follow means:
- To go in the direction of; be guided by
- To accept the guidance, command, or leadership of
- To act in agreement or compliance
- To keep or stick to
- To engage in
There is a necessary and natural order to receiving divine guidance. Listening precedes hearing. Listening is not the same as hearing and it is certainly not thinking. You must listen first, and then you can hear. You are already always listening. This form of listening is driven by the ego. If you are listening from within your ego consciousness you are actually thinking. Not listening. It is a learned response of the mind initiated through ego conscious awareness.
When you let go of your ego and live inside your true I AM presence you open yourself up to listen from a new and open state of super conscious awareness. In this space of listening, you can hear the divine messages that will flow through unabated from within the abyss of wisdom and unconditional love that flows forth from within. You will be able to take action and apply that divine knowing in every area of your life. You will be living in your heart center.
If you are unable to let go and rid yourself of egoic thought patterns, then you will not be able to reestablish a constant unwavering connection to Source Energy; the divine voice that lives inside of you. This divine essence and knowing is the real you. It is that part of you that you share with others that allows you to live as an individualized expression of Spirit in human form. Listen to the Listen, Hear, and Follow Directions audio clip to experience what it means to list, hear, and follow directions.
