Energy of Mind and Heart




Voice : So how was your meeting ?

Me : Not Bad

Voice : Wasn't great ?

Me : I sensed so much negativity in that office the whole time I was there !

Voice : Hmm

Me : I mean if I just had to compare that office vibration to that of my house in the hills or my favourite climbing site - there is an incredible difference in the negativity and positivity. I am so sensitive to the energies that I can't even hold a conversation with some people. I know that energies of the people contribute to the positivity or negativity of the place. Do some people even know that they are radiating negative energy ?

Voice : Thats strange.. I am not aware about 'negative' energy.

Me : There you go again....

Voice : I think you referring to mental energy.

Me : Whats that ?

Voice : Now I am going to tell you what isn't written in the books. You speak of positive and negative energy. I don't see it that way.

When you feel disturbed and anxious with some people, you don't pick up negative energy - you pick up energy of an uncontrolled mind. Irrespective of what he is thinking, as long as he is engaged in continuous thinking, you will struggle to find yourself calm in his presence. They are people who strongly tilt towards using their mind over heart.

On the other hand, if you are with someone who is always using his heart, you will be at ease with him instantly. Never mind if he may be silly, spontaneous, random or even lack charisma, he will be loved by many. These set of people do things to please their inner being, are spontaneous, intuitive with little worry of the past or future. They have given room to develop their heart over their heads.

Its natural to feel good when you are around people who use their hearts to live life - they are actually tapping into the space of Love. Its is this Love which you often refer to as positive energy. Its simply a case of giving mind the place it is intended for.  

And its equally natural for people to feel restless with those people who are always thinking, who have such accelerated thinking that they can switch between past and future without a break. Sometimes, their own intelligence goes against them. Decisions are weighed in the mind, analysed and rationalised. The mind is the store house of doubts, reasonings, fear, inadequacy, insecurity, hallucinations and stubborn control. Its is this vibration that you refer to as negative energy. Its just a case of people living life using the mind over heart in their lives.

Every realised why you feel great with a puppy dog, adventurer, painter or a Saint ? Because at most times the heart is used over the mind.

Every thought why you feel anxious in a corporate office, conference hall or with a politician ? Because so much is focused using the mind, that the heart struggles to have its say.

This imbalance between the heart and mind is perhaps what you refer to as negative and positive energy.  

Me : So there isn't anything like negative energy. So if I sometimes feel restless with someone, its likely I am with someone who is pre-disposed to over-thinking.

Voice : And any kind of over-thinking is a mental activity that snubs the development of the heart. And life is found when you expand your heart, embrace the love inside, rejoice in freedom and find your true nature. Its tuned in to the eternal now and has no rationale or reasoning. You do what makes you happy in the moment and this happiness and love transforms others.
Too much effort is being made to develop the mind from the time you were born, went to school, college and your work life.

Me : Wouldn't the intellect come handy ?

Voice : How intelligent do you want to be ? I think you have enough to drive a car, use your phone, make a good cup of tea or even count cash on your own. What do you want from life ? If its Divinity what you want - then its only Love that must prevail. It must soak the mind completely at the threshold of Divinity. Has your intelligence brought you closer to me or the purity of your heart ?

Me : So using my head is a case of imbalance in my spirit ?

Voice : Use both but let your mind listen to your heart and not the other way around.

Did you use your head to recognise my Voice or your heart ? Did you use your head to choose climbing as a career when no one thought that was a career move, find your lovely partner aganist all odds, adopt a loving puppy when you had no one to look after her, buy a countryside home when you didn't have the money, call that friend to give advise out of the blue and save him, climb an impossible route when you were still injured, paint the wall with a beautiful sketch when you were running high fever ?

Me : I see your point..the most life changing decisions have been from my heart. If my mind had its way - I think I would have come up with many 'logical' and 'practical' reasons to never do all that ! In fact, the most 'impractical' thing I do is let your voice make those decisions completely against the grain of my thinking !    

Voice : Let me be your safety net. I know the way and the pitfalls. When you surrender, it means you actually only surrender your mind. Thats pretty much everything.

Love and God are Identical




Voice : So you think you are spiritually qualified and closer to God than many others ?

Me : Why are you saying that ?

Voice : Remember when you were with your friends today evening. There was this one person you were talking to about God..

Me : Yes, I remember. He said there is no such thing as God. And he also said people look for dependency outside and the ones who take no responsibility of their actions turn to this concept of God. He called it a big league bullshit ! What an idiot !

Voice : And what did you say to him ?

Me : Well, I just walked away.

Voice : Why ?

Me : I don't know what to talk to him. Its your Love that sustains us. You are the reason for everything, and here we have someone who thinks is the one behind all that happens to him and all that he has accomplished ! I am sorry but I have nothing in common to talk to him.

Voice : You could have spoken about what you do and about what he does for a living...

Me : What are you getting at  ?

Voice : Well, he is a wonderfully talented painter and his paintings attract buyers from all over the world. He is wealthy and is renowned for his extraordinary talent ...

Me : Talent that you gave him and he thinks its all him !

Voice : Yes, I am with him when he paints. In each work of art he creates, I am with him.

Me : I dont undertand. He doesn't even think you exist !

Voice : When he paints, he forgets everything. When he is immersed in the painting, he is neither in the past, nor the future. He is in the space of the eternal NOW where I reside. He is so joyful when he works, there is so much love in what he does, that he connects to Me instantly.

I am nothing but Love. Love and God are identical. Love is my only language, my only way to make and keep the connection.

God is embodiment of only Love. Not everyone is able to find so much Love in what they do, like this painter. The ones like him are closer to Me without them knowing about Me because they use this Love everyday. His extraordinary paintings are only a result of that Love. Love doesn't need a Form. Its needs a Heart.

If you could understand, these kind of people are closer to divinity without them knowing anything about God. Maybe, I think they don't need to.      

Me : Now this guy is closer to you than me ??

Voice : Hahaha. Funny part is everyone is equidistant from where I am. Everyone.

Btw, I know you were looking for a lovely spiritual painting in your room and I sent this painter to you hoping that you would engage in a little conversation and eventually with My help, he would have created a wonderful work of art that would have been so perfect for your house....

Me : Oh no.....

Voice : Don't worry. I am working on it.

Me : Judging people....that is so subtle, but so self-damaging.  

Voice : Open your heart to everyone. You never know who is carrying my goodies to you.

Weaknesses



Me : When people say we must offer our weakness to the Supreme Being - what does that exactly mean ? 

Voice : You tell me...

Me : I think it means we must just surrender our weakness to Divinity and not think about it. Is it ? 

Voice : Yes, but what does 'giving' your weakness really mean ? Does it go away ? Are you free from it ? 

Me : If that happened, we would be Saints in a day ! 

Voice : And that would be wonderful.  

Me : So please tell me...I have plenty of weak spots... lazy, shy, fear of public speaking, poor at maths....lots more

Voice : Everyone has something they 'choose' to call a weakness. Weakness is a term coined to call something that you are willingly harbouring and nurturing within you that actually prevents you from taking a massive jump in consciousness. 

You think I would be interested in your strengths ? Thats not what draws my attention. Its natural to play out your strengths.  

Me : Why would I or you be interested in any of these weaknesses ?  

Voice : Because, its your weakness that actually gives you strength. 

When you do something you thought you couldn't, when you explore abilities that though you are not born with, when you dive into the unknown, when you walk into your fears, when you willingly face all odds - thats when you are really 'giving' your weakness to the Supreme Being. Thats when you are able to really surrender the weakness, because you have walked into it with faith and love. 

Where there is love, there is no fear. 
Where there is no fear, there is faith.
Where there is faith, weakness cannot remain.

Your weaknesses is my favourite playground. Everytime, you play with it, I am actively giving My Love to you. This is when you are able to really give Me your weaknesses.  

Once, you transcend them - which I assure you that everyone can..you take a giant leap. Remember, you just need to take that step and help from the Universe will be with a hundred steps.  
     
It will always seem a better idea to walk right into your fears - with Love. This way we use the power of the most important force in the Universe - Love.  

About your strengths - I don't notice that too much. Give Love a chance to power whats holding you back !

Me : I am not sure if I am excited to have so many weaknesses, but I think I know what to do with them - They certainly not going under the carpet again.    

Voice : Never hesitate. Let Love flow in all that you do and know you are born only with strengths. Because weaknesses do not exist, unless you believe they do.
