Here on planet earth, our state of separation causes us to think as separate entities. Even those of us who are concerned with how we treat others sometimes make decisions that can have a negative impact on others or even the whole.
In order to try to control the chaos, rules and laws were put into place. Rules and laws are designed to be used as guidelines for behavior, but what they really do is limit our choices and take away our integrity and personal responsibility. With rules and laws we no longer take action on what we innately feel is correct. Rather, we weigh potential actions against the consequences of breaking the rules and act from that place. This is what I like to call thinking with the head or the brain.
There is another way to think. It is to think through the heart. Even looking at these words through your brain thought process, you innately feel that connection. In its broadest sense, our hearts connect us to all other hearts through love. When you think through heart, you automatically understand you are connected to the whole of creation--to the ONE. The actions you choose from this place are different because you understand where those actions may help or hurt. The heart makes decisions based on the path that feels the least resistance. The heart makes decisions based on what feels like an enthusiastic yes or a gut-wrenching no. Understand that the less extreme the feeling, the less overall impact your decision is likely to have. Strong feelings are an indication you must act now!!!
When you think with your head, your knowledge and information a limited to what you have learned through your life experience and the immediate information your body picks up through the five physical senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell.
The heart, on the other hand, is connected to the ONE. The heart is connected to everyone and everything. Consequently, when you are connected to heart, you have access to unlimited knowledge. (Note that does not mean you are necessarily thinking about it all at the same time. It just means you can ask the question and the heart will take you to the answers.) Decisions based on this heart information benefit the whole.
To think as ONE, you must begin a practice of focusing in on and living through your heart. There are many ways to do this, but for me it is important to sit in meditation and clear my head of the jumble of thoughts and noise that enter in through those five senses. Allowing yourself the time to be clear and then allowing your heart to expand out into the Universe, you can begin exploring in a whole new way. You begin thinking in a whole new way!!!
The world as it is now is one huge mess. Many of us spend time trying to fix it, but the problems remain. The problems remain because we continue to try to fix them using the same mentality that created the problems in the first place--thinking from the head. When we begin to think through the heart, we will see solutions that we didn't see before because we will have access to all available information.
Begin thinking through heart. Begin to think as ONE!!!
