As life is the all enduring teacher, it offers great opportunities to see things from many different angles. One could easily see this in just comparing how the mind sees something compared to how the heart feels it. While the mind is busy sorting out all the inputs from the different lower bodies (physical, etheric, emotional and mental), the heart is picking up signals beyond what can easily be descried or perhaps even understood in the terms of words. The heart is so much more than an organ pumping blood throughout the physical body. One word that helps one to understand the goings on of the heart is entrainment. The heart is constantly entraining it's self to all the energies which flow between all things. It is picking up subtle vibrations from all things on a level that is really quite staggering when one realizes it. An example of this is when one feels non physical energies or disincarnate entities coming at them or in their proximity. It is not the mind that is sensing these energies but the heart that can feel beyond the physical. The etheric body is somehow involved as well but is equally mysterious in it's functions. The same kind of heart feeling potential is when one is in a crowd of people and one gets that uneasy feeling. The etheric body is picking up the dross or energies of others and the heart is overwhelmed with what to do with it all. At some point the mind takes over and gets the physical moving to get the hell out of there! When one steps back into nature one feels at peace, which is really the heart entraining with the natural world, which is at great peace within it's self. But what about love? How is the heart sensing and entraining to the love which is omnipresent within and around us always? How does the heart open up and or shut down to the love that flows through all things? How does the heart decide who it is going to open up to and allow love to flow to? In romantic love it obviously is connected through the mind to certain ideals or desires that have been constructed over time by the ego. In unconditional love there is little thought or mind involved as the barriers have been healed and limitations removed. So when unconditional love becomes the predominant energy or consciousness of our selves, what happens to romantic love? Does it fade into the sunset and just become a distant memory? Or is it still there with the constructs of the ego? Or does it break out of the box and become something more? Something beyond what we have felt before. In matters of the heart there are great mysteries and the potential to love seems to be our one and only true destiny.
