Clearing the Way for Light to Enter

Snippets of light from Elders to help unveil the path of Ascent. . .

“ . . . It is an ancient axiom that the heart knows what is true. The basis of this axiom is that the heart vibrates in resonance with a flow of energy imperceptible to the five physical senses. That energy—called Spirit, or God, or Divinity, or Holiness—is first sensed in the heart chakra of the subtle body, the etheric body that underlies the dense physical form. By vibrational frequency, the etheric heart center filters out what is false and clears a pathway for the light of truth to enter awareness.

When the spiritual journey begins, signals from the heart center are received in simple ways.  One has a feeling of what is right and what is wrong, what is true and what is false.  However, mind and emotion often obscure the knowledge of the heart.

It takes years of spiritual practice to diminish the influence of entrenched modes of thought and patterns of emotional reaction before one can clearly hear and follow the guidance of the heart which, over time, becomes imbued with the light of the soul.

Spiritual practices such as meditation and contemplation become essential at this stage. They serve to still the mind and emotions, allowing the light of Spirit to enter the consciousness. The discipline of meditation has been used for a variety of purposes in modern life, including relaxation and physical healing.

At its core, however, this ancient practice is a method by which the programming of the lesser self—the persona that has previously held the center stage of life—is replaced by the higher Self. . .”
