Living in the Heart, What Is Missing?
The heart is the essence of I Am - pure awareness itself - not a place to go but what we already are, and the mind cannot understand it, only direct experience can reveal it.
Key Teachings
- The heart is not a physical location but the essence of 'I Am' - the sense of pure being itself, not emotion or feeling
- We don't need to go anywhere or become anything - we are already that which we seek; the search itself keeps us from recognizing our true nature
- The mind and intellect cannot understand the heart; true understanding comes through direct experience of being, not conceptual knowledge
