HEARING

MARY BARNES

TO Mind, God, belongs infinite self-comprehension, and Mind's unlimited consciousness of itself, of reality, is forever reflected in man, who is thereby empowered to hear or to know all there is to be heard or known. Hearing is spiritual perception, or awareness. Since this is the normal condition of man, God's image and likeness, never can it truly be said that man cannot hear, or that his hearing is defective. The only senses man possesses are spiritual, and these Soul-senses are not subject to loss or impairment.

Because hearing is a faculty of Spirit, divine Mind, it necessarily partakes of the nature of its source. Hence it is spiritual, ever present, unconfined, indestructible; it is complete, perfect, undepleted, unobstructed, active; moreover, it is effortless. Understanding and hearing are one.
