Who's There?

Hope you read yesterday's blog. If not, then it might be a good idea to go back and read it so that this post makes some sense.
As we focus on the one sense faculty we have chosen to work on this summer, I will remind you of the questions that we must hold. Today, just focus on: "who hears (or sees, smells, tastes, touches---let's stay away from thinks for now). If you wake up in the morning and hear the birds singing---who is it that hears? In silence is there sound? Must there be the birds for the ear to hear? If you were deaf, who hears? Don't try to work it out. Just hold the question. There is nothing else to do.
