This Week’s Quotation:
The feeling realm is so vitally important because it is the range of being where properly the initial phases of perception with respect to unseen things takes place. Perception through the heart reaches out further beyond the physical vision than does perception through the mind. In fact, that which is perceived through the mind must begin to come into manifestation through the feeling nature if it is to have any real meaning; if it does not, there will merely be an intellectual concept tacked on, and the individual picks it up and fondles it, and puts it back in place, but it is not a part of himself and has no real meaning in the expression of his life.
~ Lloyd Arthur Meeker
Perception Through the Heart
Here is what I have come to know is essential in my life. And I believe it is crucial for anyone.
There have to be times when you bring everything back to something primal. You have to get to the root of things. You have to connect deeply to the source of all that is transpiring.
Creative thought is vital in that process. With a creative, unfolding pattern of thought, more is seen and known.
The thought alone doesn’t make the connection. But if the thought is truly creative, it opens a feeling perception of life’s subtle, primal essences. And that takes you to a deeper connection and knowing of what is primal—what is most vital and precious. It takes you to the source reality of who you are and what you are made of. It initiates a flow from that source.
I have two words for this process: meditation and Attunement.
I can imagine that this might seem like an ephemeral foundation for a human life. I know it is union with the firmest foundation there is—Reality.
What is Attunement?
Attunement is a consciousness practice and an energy medicine practice that leads to personal spiritual regeneration.
Yes as you and others said the heart perceives and is involves, the mind can make plans and create too, but only in sensing whats right in the wholeis my everyday experience
Thank You Irene
It can be an exhausting experience trying to touch reality without your heart engaged. The mind can only go so far in engaging with the wonder and power of who we are and what makes up this cosmic experience
How true it is that creative thought can take us just so far. Without deep heart perception the door to source reality remains closed. With heart perception a beautiful creative flow from is initiated.
Meditation and Attunement are critical to us all everyday – as critical as breathing…..
