Trust in the wisdom of your heart from "summary" of A Path with Heart by Jack Kornfield
The teachings tell us that the wisdom of the heart is always available to us, guiding us in our lives if we can learn to listen. In meditation, we quiet the mind and open ourselves to this intuitive knowing that resides in the heart. This wisdom is not the product of thinking or analyzing; it arises from a deeper place within us, a place of stillness and clarity. When we trust in the wisdom of the heart, we can navigate the complexities of life with greater ease and grace. We no longer rely solely on the rational mind to make decisions, but instead, we tune into the quiet voice of intuition that speaks to us from within. This inner guidance is like a compass that points us in the direction of our truest selves, helping us to live in alignment with our deepest values and aspirations. Trusting in the wisdom of the heart requires a willingness to let go of our need for control and certainty. It asks us to surrender to the unknown, to embrace the uncertainty that is inherent in life. This can be challenging, as our minds are conditioned to seek security and stability. But when we learn to trust in the wisdom of the heart, we discover a profound sense of peace and freedom that comes from letting go of our attachments and expectations. The path of the heart is not always easy, but it is ultimately rewarding. As we learn to trust in our intuition and inner knowing, we find ourselves more connected to ourselves and to the world around us. We see that we are part of a larger tapestry of existence, and that we are held and supported by forces greater than ourselves. This sense of connection and belonging is a source of great comfort and inspiration on our spiritual journey. As we walk the path with heart, we may encounter obstacles and challenges along the way. But if we can remain open and receptive to the wisdom of the heart, we will find that we have all the guidance and support we need to navigate the ups and downs of life. Trusting in the wisdom of the heart is an act of faith, a leap into the unknown. But it is a leap worth taking, for it leads us to a deeper sense of purpose and meaning in our lives.
