When I was only twenty-one years old, facing an unplanned pregnancy, I wrote a poem in my journal referencing Buddha. I had never spoken or written that word before that moment. It surprised even me. At the time I didn’t know where it had come from. I had been born and raised in a German Catholic family in Iowa with no exposure to other religions or spiritual philosophies outside of Christianity.
It was a year after I made the heart-wrenching decision to release my daughter to be adopted and raised by another couple, I would read Hermann Hesse’s Siddhartha and, shortly after, be introduced to the Sanskrit word, bodhicitta, which translates into English as the heart/mind of enlightenment. So often, it is the cracking open of the heart through grief and loss that allows us to glimpse its true power.
Buddha and Buddhism does not separate the heart from the mind. When my Tibetan teacher pointed to the literal “home” of the mind, he pointed to the heart.
Modern science teaches us that the first cells of the human embryo are heart cells and that more than half of these heart cells are neural cells (brain cells), possessing have the same kind of neurotransmitters as the brain itself. In other words, the heart is a brain or mind, able to manifest thought into form. The electromagnetic field of the heart extends three to twelve feet around the body and an opened/activated heart field can expand in greater circumference.
The energy center that we call the heart has the capacity to function as a star gate, a zero-point portal to and of the quantum field (Source LoveLight Intelligence.) All humans have this technology within but not all choose to use it to maximum potential. The quantum field contains within it all potentialities, and that is why the word Infinite is used to describe the heart. (Gratitude to my star sister and colleague, Sandra Walter (www.ascensionpath.com) for the term “Infinite Kryst Heart” or Infinite Heart. That term is a bit more accessible for westerners than the term bodhicitta, but both terms are pointing to activated “technology” or spiritual awareness and gifts (Christ or Buddha nature) realized through the heart.
The Infinite Heart has the capacity to shift the frequencies, magnetics, and harmonics of collective realities as well as assemble and manifest new realities. Those who are consciously ascending in frequency in heart/mind and body–lifting collective veils, are beginning to experience those creations. This is the power of unified heart intelligence—divine love, divine light, in alignment with divine will.
