Wisdom encourages us to develop a healthy relationship with criticism

You should hear criticism through both your ears. But don't let it sink in your heart. Don't be scared of criticism.

~ Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji.
Yoga and Meditation. 

 A wise and insightful quote by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji!

He offers valuable advice on how to handle criticism:

1. *Listen fully*: Hear criticism with both ears, meaning listen attentively and fully, without interrupting or dismissing.
2. *Don't internalize*: Don't let criticism sink into your heart, meaning don't take it personally or let it affect your self-worth.
3. *Fearless*: Don't be scared of criticism, meaning don't be afraid to hear constructive feedback or differing opinions.

Gurudev's wisdom encourages us to develop a healthy relationship with criticism, one that:

- Cultivates humility and openness
- Fosters growth and learning
- Builds resilience and confidence
- Fosters a sense of detachment and objectivity

By embracing this approach, we can:

- Learn from others' perspectives
