Heart garden

How does your heart garden grow? In silence.

Divine indifference

We have three operational centres: Mind thinks, Heart feels, Body acts. We know this because they change. (We cannot see what does not change.) After waxing and waning, the centres shut down. This does not affect us. 

Burning man

Meister Eckhart: “You must have an exalted mind and a burning heart in which, nevertheless, reigns silent stillness.”

Adulteration

The judgements of young boys, as Emerson noted, are swift, confident, and summary. Eventually, they become more equivocal, less certain. Their eyes flicker. They begin to speak from the calculator in the head.

Union

Wisdom is a descent from the head’s either/or to the heart’s both/and. “If thine eye be single, thy whole body will be full of light.”
