“If you insist, you could practice this Way in the context of (any and) every stage. But it is possible to establish the foundation of true hearing and seeing”

Listening, Hearing, and Seeing
I
The Way Of The Heart begins with The Ordeal Of Listening.
A “Reality Consideration” Of the conditional self and How it Operates As self-Contraction.
II
This Becomes Hearing, or most fundamental self-Understanding, operative as the free capability for self-Transcendence.
III
When that impulse has become comprehensively effective, The Open Heart, goes on to the next stage of The Way Of The Heart, which is Seeing, a Spiritually Activated Heart-Response To My Spiritual and Spirit-Baptizing Presence Of The Divine Person.
This Spiritual Heart-Response Permits An Infilling With The Divine Spirit Self-Radiance.
And That Constant Baptism Permits The Fully Responsive Practice Of The Way Of The Heart, So That, By Stages, The Theatre Of egoity Is Out-Grown.
“Spiritual life does not begin until the purification of the base of egoity, or irresponsibility relative to the life-signs, is complete. This purification must be realized first. If not, it does not make any difference how many Spiritual experiences you have. They cannot be effective in any great sense, and all you will do is delude yourself with them, as you now delude yourself with your ordinary life-experience. The vehicle with which you are associated is so distorted by your egoic bondage and early-life problems that it distorts My Blessing. You translate It into yourself. You make It into egoically “self-possessed” experience, mere consolation, something you can then dismiss casually, doubt, forget about, not fully use. – The Crashing Down of My Divine Grace
