I invoke your name, Avalokiteshvara. I spire to learn your way of listening in order to help relieve the suffering of the world. You know how to listen in order to understand. I invoke your name in order to practice listening with all my attention and openheartedness, I will sit and listen without prejudice. I will sit and listen without judging or reacting. I will sit and listen in order to understand. I will sit and listen so attentively that I will be able to hear what the other person is saying and also what is being left unsaid. I know that just by listening deeply I already alleviate a great deal of pain and suffering in the other person.
