The words “healing” and “health” are connected. We heal not just the body, but also the emotions that scar our hearts. You can remove the scars from your skin, but the scars in your heart are very difficult to remove. In Heartfulness, we all know that the removal and the healing of our samskaras, of our inner conditioning, are very difficult.
For example, how to remove mis-understanding? What is behind the misunderstanding of others, or understanding others correctly? Understanding happens only when we proceed with right thinking. And what precedes right thinking is right attitude. Do you really want to understand another person? Listen carefully. That’s where the heart comes into the picture. Our next evolution as human beings is all about this – whoever uses the heart will survive, and the rest will not. Nature works in a very different way, where the subtlest, the finest survive, and there is no way you will be able to survive in the future if you don’t use the heart.
What is the role of the heart? Now, science also acknowledges it and there are some great books on this topic. One is The Heart’s Code by Paul Pearsall, and another is The HeartMath Solution by Doc Childre and Howard Martin. When you have a problem at an emotional level, because somebody misunderstands you, you will remember it all your life. But if you let go from the heart, if you forgive that person, you will have no problem. So we have to learn this art of using the heart, being empathetic and more forgiving. Then the evolution of consciousness will happen.

Neelam Shivhare explores some of the great ancient texts of India on motherhood, compares the behavior of Kaikayi and Yashoda, and realizes the importance of removing fear from our hearts in order to nurture our children.For young women like myself, who are future mothers, I trust we are on the path of becoming selfaware and brutally honest with ourselves. We are creative beings, never forgetting the gifts with which we have been bestowed— the love and tenderness, natural instincts, and intuition to feel the right path. It all lies in the mysterious meanderings of the heart. Are we really listening to our hearts, or confusing the bombarding information on social media with reality?
