The Heartfulness Way: Heart-Based Meditations for Spiritual Transformation

by Kamlesh D. Patel

Through meditation, we move from the complexity of mind to the simplicity of heart. Everything starts with the heart.

When the heart is at peace, the mind is at rest. When the heart is content, the mind gains insight, clarity, and wisdom.

A book may give us wisdom, but it cannot make us wise. A book can give us knowledge, but it cannot make us experience the truth of that knowledge.

The mind is only at ease when the heart is at peace.

‘You see, we only drop our efforts when we become content. But we are only content when we finally drop our efforts!’

Thinking is okay, but indulgence is never good.

purify the subconscious.

‘O, thou thirsty for the divine intoxication! Empty thy heart for the purpose, for the head of the bottle of wine bows down only over an empty cup’

Duty without love makes us slaves, but love frees us. It is the secret to effortless action. It is the foundation, not only of prayer, but of all our acts.’
