Become blind so that you may see my beauty, become deaf so that you may hear the sweet melody of my voice. Become ignorant so that you may attain a portion of my knowledge, and become poor so that you may draw from the ocean of my eternal abundance.
Be blind so that you may behold My beauty; be deaf so that you may hear My sweet voice and melody; be ignorant so that you may partake of My knowledge; and be poor so that from My eternal wealth you may obtain. Be blind – that is, blind to all but My beauty. Be deaf – that is, deaf to all but My words. Be ignorant – that is, ignorant of all save My knowledge, so that with a pure eye, an open heart and an attentive ear you may enter the court of My holiness.
 
To be blind means to turn away from observing anything other than my beauty. To be deaf means to listen only to my words and not those of others. To be ignorant means to seek knowledge only from me. By purifying your eyes, purifying your heart, and refining your hearing, enter the vast expanse of my sanctity.
