Our hearts are the dwelling space of our soul, although that doesn’t imply that it is its only container. The heart’s sacred space seems to act as a doorway to our inner world, to the internal and ethereal space of the truth of who we really are. Connecting and living in that space seems to be one of the most difficult experiences as well as the most yearned one. We want to return to our own heart space but are also frightened of what we may find along the way. We have learned to fear our emotions, vulnerability, and ability to connect. Unlearning the way of the mind is part of our journey in this body during this time. But it’s a class that has no end or final certificate of completion. It’s an ongoing moment-to-moment journey, that begins with the awareness of what is happening inside of us. Just as simple as that, but as enlightening as that. Simply being aware, feeling what is happening, and letting it happen. It’s a powerful non-action in action. It is a mastery in an ever-evolving journey.
Our heart is a doorway, but it’s also our compass. It’s ours in our way and must be discovered and transmitted. There is no proven formula. Only the truth that it is a personal journey, that allows us to be who we are. That gives us the possibility of being in tune with our highest potential. That starts with vulnerability, courage, and the endless disposition to surrender to whatever is there. With the wisdom to remember, that whatever is there is also momentary, that there is an eternal truth behind it, witnessing it all.
