The name of the book is "The Heart's Code" and it speaks to a way of thinking, a way of living that involves thinking and moreover acting in harmony with our heart. Now, that is not to say that one should renounce usuing their mind (Brain) altogether. Quite to the contrary! This book advocates for finding a way to utilize the inate wisdom we, each of us, hold within our hearts --a tap-line into ancestoral and univeral wisdom via quantum entanglement, if you will-- in order to guide our mental thought procesess and larger interactons with the world at large, thereby allowing us to operate from a plaee of profound harmony and inate wisdom. The premise of the book being that we live in a world, especially in our modern technological times where everything and everyone seems to be driven by a solely-brain centered focus. The brain seems to be the key to "success" in a competitive, materialistically-driven world. The brain wants to be the center of attention, its always on and shouting --even when we sleep-- always wanting input and its motivations tend to be primarily self-centered and self-serving. This makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint, since the brain's primary function is to ensure survival. The heart on the other hand, tends be quite a bit quieter. You really have to stop, slow the pace and listen in order to hear what the heart has to say, but for those who can find their way to mastering what the heart has to say there is an infinite, ancestral wisdom waiting to unfold. Those who can tap into thinking by way of the heart have a unique and unwavering sense of courage and purpose for their being and they do not hesitate to reach out to touch others and to share this wisdom, unwavering courage and loving kindness with the world around them. George H.W. Bush was most definitely a man who had tapped into the Heart's Code. His life is a shining example of life well-lived, a life of purpose, a life who reached out to touch so many ... A life that has truly left this world a better place.
You will be greatly missed, Mr. President. Perhaps you will stick around for a bit, in spirit, in order to help influence our nation's leaders to think from their hearts during this time of trial and transition?
[Relevant/poignant quotes from the book, "The Heart's Code" to follow as I read along.]
Later P.M. ... I found time to watch many of the tributes for President H.W. Bush today. Some were recorded, others I was able to watch live, in the early a.m. For some reason, I felt the strong need to "Stop All the Clocks" today and so I unplugged all the clocks in the house and yet somehow, I still managed to get to the places I needed to be on time. I guess, it just really struck me today most especially that time is actually a brain-centered illusion and when something really matters, is of value and importance then time becomes --or rather should become --irrelevant. Given the reverence and soulful reflection I witnessed on TV & Radio today for President George H.W. Bush, I'd have say to say that today the clocks were indeed stopped in honor of a truly Great Man who leaves this world a better place.
