The mind and heart are the two most beautiful gifts to the human beings, biologically as well as mystically. Since the early days of civilizations, the brain is a symbol of logic while the heart signifies the core of emotions and love. The brain is black and white, it categorizes everything as either good or bad but the heart is full of colorful emotions. The heart has got the ability to detect what other living beings are feeling. The heart is what makes you who you are, gives you a character; without the heart, you will be nothing more than just an instrument that decides in either in a yes or a no.
Your eyes see only what is in their sight but the emotions are visible only to the heart. Haven't, you ever completed someone’s sentences? Haven’t you ever knew what the speaker was going to say and you were actually prepared for that? How does this happen? We don’t actually have the ability of mind-reading but it’s the frequency of the hearts of two people that when matches result in a heart to heart connection where one is able to see all the emotions and feelings of one’s heart.
What it signifies?
Let us see a reference from the book -“The Little Prince” by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry where the prince was sad because he saw a Rose and thought that it was special but when he visited other parts of the planet he saw rows and bushes of the same flower and knew that his flower was not unique. Later he realized that the flower was unique because of the relationship that they have in between them. The relationship is a bond that exists only between hearts. One can not judge a relationship by what is visible to the eyes.
Is it important to see using your heart?
Have you ever felt empathetic towards something that is not soothing to the eyes? This can not be unless the heart identifies what it sees and overrides what the eyes see.
Just imagine a place where everything that we acted upon was related to what we see and not what we feel? Looks like a scene from a Hollywood sci-fi robot Armageddon movie, ain't it? Nobody would ever want the world like that. And to me, this is one of the reasons why I think that there is more to the world than what is just visible to the eyes.
At some point, someone must have asked you,”What do they even see in each other?” At this point, it is clear that the speaker is using the eyes to see their bond while the people he is talking about are seeing with their hearts.
If we start judging everything by the means of its look, the world of love and compassion will cease to exist. It will become a place of lust and want. Though it is true that the first impression is made by the way the things look but we mustn't judge a book just by its cover. But it's also true that a good cover is what gives us a push to read the book.
The eyes and heart are the two faces of a coin if one of them is removed from the equation, its no longer a valid coin. And nobody accepts a false coin. Try it!
How to apply it in real life?
It will be incorrect to say that every time the path our heart sees is the correct one for us to follow. Sometimes it can lead you to grave troubles and to the point of no return.
The heart has this amazing ability to see the invisible emotions of all the earthly creatures. The most cherished treasures of our life are the feelings and thoughts that we have. We have gained these through the experiences we had when we were successful or when we failed. These emotions are embedded in our heart throughout our life and these help us to decide whether following a path will be feasible or not on our behalf and those affected by it.
Life is all about to create a balance and reach our destiny with the help of the two important tools- eyes and heart. Seeing with eyes and heart simultaneously affects the decision making factor to manifolds. If you can see more you can have more data and more data means more information. Thus, the more information you have the better decision can be expected from you.
But first, you have to train your heart to see clearly. You will have to figure out what triggers your ability to see using your heart. Whether you need to be centered and calm or you need to be crazy that solely depends on you. For me, the more displeased I am the less can I use my heart. Is it same for you too? Have I given you something to think about? I’m glad.
In the words of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry -
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly.
The essential is invisible to the eye.
Now once you have figured that out, you can see the world with whole new perspective. You have unlocked your ability to see using heart, and the world will never seem the same again. It will seem much deeper that what you have been seeing, and it will be getting better and better.
The very stepping stone of what we are or what we will become is compassion that comes from the heart. Though logic and ingenuity make a good structure for us but without heart, we can never be something that will last.
There could be no fairer destiny for any physical theory than that it should point the way to a more comprehensive theory in which it lives on as a limiting case.
- Albert Einstein
