Openness is a receptivity to everyone and everything. It is quite fundamentally an other-centeredness, a disposition of availability to others.

— Wayne Teasdale, George Carirns in The Community of Religions by Wayne Teasdale, George Cairns

 

To Practice This Thought:
Adopt a gesture -- hands cupped upward, for example -- to signify your receptivity to others and God.
