Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, people can see and hear things, but if they do not have a good understanding or awareness inside them, they might not truly understand or appreciate what they see and hear. For example, imagine two people watching a beautiful sunset. One person, who loves nature and has learned a lot about different kinds of sunsets, feels very happy and inspired. The other person, who never thinks about nature and doesn't care about sunsets, might just see it as the sky getting darker and nothing special. This means that it's not just about having eyes and ears to take in the world; it’s also about having a developed mind and heart to really connect with and value what you experience. So, working on becoming more thoughtful and understanding can help you get more out of what you see and hear. This is true in many areas of life, like understanding art, listening to music, or even talking with friends. Taking time to learn, grow, and appreciate things deeply will make your experiences richer and more meaningful.
