The art of listening
By Dr. Soumitra Basu — Oct 15, 2021
In a world of sophisticated gadgetry, the art of listening suffers a great casualty. Listening is a faculty bestowed by Nature and it is a technique that gets perfected in the matrix of interpersonal relationships. Yet, in a world satiated with hedonistic pleasure and the workaholism of corporate culture, who does justice to the art of listening? It would be tragic to squander away a great gift of nature that holds unfulfilled potentialities. Even the great wisdom came down to the listening Self which were articulated by prophets like Moses and expressed as mantras by the great Upaniṣadic seers.
