The ancients said: "To know the inner, one must observe the outer; to diagnose the outer, one can understand the inner. What exists within is reflected without."

"Detecting" refers to inferring their emotional state by observing their demeanor and behavior. "Listening" refers to exploring their personality by listening to the sounds they make and smelling their body odor. "Recognizing" refers to deeply identifying their emotional secrets through their hobbies and interests.
