37. 1. That is, an awakened heart, which, by reflection and contemplation, perceives the realities.
37. 2. That is, attentively listen to that divine revelation in which the events of previous communities have been mentioned.
37. 3. That is, be present in terms of heart and mind. Because the one who does not even understand what is being said, even though present, is as if he is not.
