Listen with your heart
When you listen attentively to the silent voice in your heart and follow the directions she offers .... the great mystery starts to reveal herself to you. There is an awareness of Love that naturally starts to arise in you. It is this Love that you have been seeking. Listen…… ANAND MEHROTRA, SATTVA YOGA.
By listening to the whispers of our inner voice we find ourselves moving in the direction of our purpose and the meaning of life. This is the "call to action." Which can feel like excitement, ambition, newness, challenges, the love we feel in the heart, happiness and bliss. Nature give us the signs through incidences and sycronicities. New ideas are cognised and it is through this recognition that we feel charm. Everything feels right and we trust. We can also experience the opposite to charm - aversion.
The inner voice also tells us when something is wrong. If we ignore the signs and feelings of averions and proceed even when it feels wrong then the situation will not work out. Life becomes rough. If we continue to ignore the signs and messages the problems will get bigger. If we still continue down this path the problems will become a disaster and can end in a big mess. So listen with your Heart and to your inner voice. Get to know the feelings of charm and aversion. Nature will lead you in the right direction so trust it.
Our Meditation is one of the most effective ways of coming to silence. The mind transcends to the subtlest realms of silence coming to the place of stillness where everything resides within us. We experience the silence during meditation and then we take that consciousness, the quietness, into our lives.
How do we find quietness outside of meditation?
Become aware of Nature or take a walk in Nature, be alone with your thoughts, sit by the ocean, practise Yoga and Pranayama (breath in the energy of life - Prana), sit quietly after meditation. Take time out of your busy day to be quiet and listen. See what Nature has to offer you today, right now.
Today I will take time to be quiet and listen to my inner voice and watch for the signs that are constantly being shown to me. I will appreciate that my life is precious and know that everything is well and wisely set in place, all I need to do is listen.
I love the words to the song “Listen with Heart” by Casey Donovan.
When you can’t find your way through the night
When you’ve lost touch and nothings feeling right
You can’t find that path that leads you on
And you don’t know which road to choose
That’s when you’ve go to
Listen with your heart
Listen to you soul
Inside you’ll find the answer
The place you need to go
