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 Desire ~
Listening is a habit that is cultivated through desire. By desiring to listen and follow, one begins to listen and follow. Through desiring to listen and follow more, one begins to increase the habit of listening and following.
Desire is worth cultivating. Spending time focusing on one’s desire to listen and follow is helpful to the practice and the habit, because all practice and all habit follows desire.
Remember your desire in the mind. Have gratitude for your desire in the heart. Trust your desire in the moment. All of this will cultivate the desire, and the desire shall blossom into a lovely new habit.

Thoughts of Awakening # 211
Listening to the Heart
is not a special talent
that some have and others don’t.
Listening to the Heart
is one talent given to all.
When you hear your brother
speak from his Heart
and you recognize it,
you are listening to yours.
When you hear your brother
speak from his Heart
and you want to follow it,
you are desiring to follow yours.
Recognize the Heart as one Heart,
and be grateful whenever you hear its song.
Through your gratitude for it,
you tune in with it,
and once you are in tune,
you will hear it more.
~From our Holy Spirit
