I love this.

I can draw a parallel in relationships - when one really desires to understand someone, but has no expectations or specific wants of who they should be. Therefore you don't project in the other person an already formed picture of who you want them to be. In this way you have a completely open mind, ready to receive communication head on. You can truly listen to what they have to say and therefore achieve your highest desire which is to understand them.

This can be extrapolated to one's relationship to the Creation itself, helping one to stay unconditionally present.
