Thoughts of Awakening # 210
When you listen,
listen to the Heart.
Not the human heart,
which may dream
but is still limited in its perspective.
Listen to the Heart of all,
which is connected to life
and our one joy.
Listen in silence for a moment.
Ask the Heart what to do,
how to respond,
and what to say, if anything.
When you ask the Heart
with no personal attachment to the answer
and with a desire
only to do what the Heart
would guide you to do,
a clear answer can be given,
because no other desire
blocks the answer
you most want to hear.
~From our Holy Spirit
Thoughts of Awakening Quote 210 – Meditation with Karen Worth
Find a place where you will be undisturbed. If it is comfortable, put on headsets or earbuds. Relax, and enjoy this meditation.

Tips from Regina ~ Day 210, Commentary on Listening
Please read and contemplate the following commentary in the same way that you read and contemplate the Thought of Awakening. The commentaries are designed to enrich your understanding of the Thoughts of Awakening.
~Commentary on Listening ~
In order to listen, you must choose not to want things your way…the independent way…which does not consider the way of the whole.
In order to listen, you must also realize that the perspective from which you see is limited, and therefore, the perspective from which you see cannot make a decision based on benefit to the whole.
When you want only that which benefits the whole as an entirety, and you realize that you cannot decide for the whole based on your limited perspective, you are then ready to listen, because you realize that listening is the only satisfactory answer for you.

Thoughts of Awakening # 209
The goal that you seek
determines the experience that you have.
But be not confused by the goal,
for there are only two goals you can seek.
You can seek independence,
which is conflict,
or you can seek listening,
which is harmony and peace.

Tips from Regina ~ Day 209, Commentary on Peace
Please read and contemplate the following commentary in the same way that you read and contemplate the Thought of Awakening. The commentaries are designed to enrich your understanding of the Thoughts of Awakening.
~Commentary on Peace~
The world is a reflection of the mind, but I do not ask you to give thought to this. I ask you to give acceptance. For when you give thought to the simple ideas I teach, you also add confusion to what was not meant to be understood, but meant only to be.
The world is a reflection of the mind.
Now that you accept this fact, most likely without understanding, you can use this fact to see which voice you listen to in the mind.
Are you upset by what you see? If so, you are listening to the voice for independence, and you are wanting everything to be the way the voice for independence states it must be. This is not being. This is demanding and controlling, and in demanding and controlling there can never be peace.
If you are overjoyed by what you see…if you are grateful with no desire to interfere or change a thing…you are listening to the Voice of Peace, and so you are peace and peace is what you know. This is like music that has no sound, and yet the music never stops playing.
Be only honest with what you see. This is all that is asked as you look at a reflection. And then if it is not peace, turn immediately to Me. And if it is peace, enjoy the beauty of your song.
