One of the first qualities that must be cultivated by people who want to achieve independent perception of higher realities is unreserved and unbiased devotion to what human life and the world outside us has to reveal.
If we approach any phenomenon with a preconceived notion derived from our life as it has been until now, we shut ourselves off from the quiet yet pervasive influence this phenomenon can have on us.
While learning, we must be able at any moment to make ourselves into a totally empty vessel into which the world we do not know can flow.
Moments of recognition happen only when any prejudice or criticism coming from us is silenced.
For instance, it makes no difference whether we are wiser than the person we are meeting – even a child with minimal understanding has something to disclose to the greatest sage."
