To Hear

by Dante Gabriel Rossetti



To Hear means three separate efforts combined continuously:

     First, effort to make silence in ourselves, by
stilling the noise of our imaginings:
Second, effort to listen, to become aware of
something outside us:
Third, effort to take in - a new faculty is needed,
to start a new process of thought and feeling.


~P.D. Ouspensky
