What is occluding the deep connection between you and your fellow human beings? That is also right there over your heart, and that also needs to be looked at. One of the things that most often impedes this connection is our fear of one another’s pain. We have already established that we all have one heart. Deep down, we know this very well. But what we are usually not aware of is how much we feel other people’s pain and how much energy we waste trying to defend ourselves against it.
