Living From The Heart And Not The Mind
A simple practice for troubled times.
Throughout history, at the end of his toil, a country man has leaned against the trunk of a tree and admired the wild flowers growing in the meadow. As the sun settled he would take time to listen to the busyness of the birds as they prepared to nest in their tree for the night. Lulled by the sounds of nature, he could relax at the end of a busy day and put aside the troubles of his world.
Fast forward a 100 years or so and the story is quite different, as our hero works all hours whilst desperately trying to reach unattainable deadlines. There is no question that many now enjoy a much grander style of living, but that comes at a cost which can drain away a person’s life in more ways than one. There is still a great divide between those that have and those that don’t have.
If we consider our lives now, with all the difficulties and frustrations we experience, how does our sophisticated living really compare with the gentle quality of life our ancestors once enjoyed?
I am not decrying all the great inventions and discoveries that have made our lives better today. The convenience and luxury they offer on many levels is of tremendous benefit - but the icing on the cake would be, for us to achieve a greater level of peace within ourselves and to actually be able to enjoy the fruits of our labours.
The simple life is often yearned for in the hustle and bustle of the city, but the human gets bored easily and seeks change, gratification, excitement and interest to sustain dedication to the cause of living a life. We have seen this aspect of humanity grow and evolve on our planet over millennia and have benefitted greatly from the inventions, diversity and dreams which we have brought into reality. Yes, it is a wonderful life! Or so the poster says!
We are now beginning to question lifestyles and comparisons as our collective awakening begins to stir amongst the crowded cities and neglected towns with their failing businesses, struggling institutions and declining commerce.
The great seer Edgar Cayce* predicted a turning point around 2026 and if his predictions are to come true we need to consider the idea that before anything new can be built, the old has to be dismantled. This is the process we are going through now.
When these predictions were first made, humanity was not so aware of the power of their thoughts and the effect they have on our individual and collective lives.
We are beginning to understand timelines, manifestation techniques and the choices we all have around us - both individually and collectively. It is easy to mistake all this for sophisticated living but in essence it is but a simple thing.
Talk of dimensional shifts was rare years ago and only recently have we been able to understand and accept that we are spiritual beings in a physical body with the ability to create our lives through our consciousness. However, it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking we need to just create from the mind, when in fact we need to connect to our heart centre.
We can use our imagination initially to conjure up our dream by visualising it, but then we need to take it’s essence into that magic centre of our heart where we can connect to our God source. That process is what I refer to as going into our WORLD WITHIN.
But let us backtrack a little:-
In terms of our planetary history, science has only recently accepted that our world is a dimensional one.
Our planet is constantly progressing and advancing and thanks to humanity’s many enquiring minds over the centuries, we have discovered that we are on a planet that is constantly evolving up the spiral of life.
Our early ancestors’ experience of earth was through three spacial dimensions of length, width and depth. We therefore refer to them being in the third dimensional world.
Since we have been able to track and understand ‘time’ we see earth as it exists across time as well (where we see events and physical changes happening) and therefore are in a fourth dimensional spacetime continuum (as described by Einstein’s relativity). We now refer to ourselves as being in the fourth dimensional world.
Each of these dimensions that we have moved through have offered us abilities as far as their individual level allowed them to but we have made a great shift and are now anchoring into the fifth dimension. This level offers us even greater possibilities to continue to grow and evolve as spiritual beings having a life here on planet earth. In conceptual thought experiments, a fifth dimension represents a landscape of all possible branching futures and parallel realities where different choices play out.
So what does that mean for us now?
Creating from the mind is no longer working for us as much, now that we have moved up the spiral of evolution. Instead we need to create from our heart centre which is where our aspect of Divine love can be reached and that aspect of us is our super-power.
So this really is the time to go to our centre to connect with our heart and open the door to our WORLD WITHIN where we can work with our Higher Self.
The vibratory password we need for this access is LOVE (in action and in being) and once we enter our heart centre, where all our dreams and inspirations lie, we can then create from that place.
As far as humanity is concerned, it could be the biggest breakthrough we have had since we took up the plough, leaned against a tree and wondered at the stars.
