Today we end the series of the mental and emotional energy bodies. We end with ‘what is mind and what is heart’ because to learn of the energy bodies we have to necessarily learn of the physical manifestation as well. Most of us, through conditioning, understand that the mind resides somewhere within the region of our brain and that it is through that that we make decisions, analyze, pass opinions, judgments. The truth is that the mind is a body of energy which is the result of the mental energy as it manifests through us each moment in time. The mind is not a physical thing but a body of energy that keeps changing its size, shape, composition, frequency, colour and tone, according to the mental body energies that are released and transmitted down to lower consciousness levels. Having said that, it can be understood that the mind, being energy, can choose to reside in any part of the body that it desires, or any part of the body that best suits its energy composition at that time. So it may sometimes reside in your brain, as it does very often.

Why did this energy often choose to reside in the brain? In earlier stages of our evolution, as Ancient Wisdom unlocked its doors to the human realm (very slowly at first), these truths began to have a significant effect on the mental energies. Before the doors of Ancient Wisdom were unopened our mental body energies were very slow moving, sluggish, which relied on its own stimulus in order to create those agitations required for the purpose of the thought process. This made the thought process insular, closed in, narrow. This was a stage of evolution we had to experience.

When Ancient Wisdom and higher mental consciousness began to release its energy into our mental energy field, two stimuli were now available. One, the stimulus of its own inner energy (as it had been used to), and the second was the stimulus of the higher consciousness of the Ancient Wisdom. In order to process this new stimulus, the mental energy used the same channels as it used to process the old, insular, one, and these channels were those of the brain circuitry. That is why we hold the cellular conditioning that the mind resides in the brain.

Now that we have moved on from that stage and the doors of wisdom are wide open, the higher mind consciousness is not directing the flow, but the lower mind consciousness is reaching out to access whatever it requires from beyond those doors of wisdom. The process has become the opposite. Earlier the higher mind consciousness would direct this flow of this energy in one drop or stream as required. This was directed by a consciousness level not accessed by us in our process of daily living. Today humanity is directing the flow of whichever energy it deliberately chooses, not at a higher level of consciousness, but at the vibrant concrete level of our awareness.

In the course of this significant change in the way we access higher energies of wisdom, the mind energy does not need to use the process of the brain circuitry channels alone. What the mind energy does is scan the physical energies to decipher which part can best provide it with the environment it needs to release the information that it holds. So when you say you have changed your mind you are not being fickle. (Laughter)

It is, thus, important for us to be aware of the mind is at given moment, so that you are aware of the energy it wishes to transmit to you, and can access this information instantly. Though the mind does shift, this shift is not rapid. Every few days if you can make yourself aware of where the mind is, you will be able to process the information internally, thus doing away with the need for an external catalyst and maintaining the mental energy in equilibrium. 

Exercise to identify the location of the mind:

By means of the breath slow down the physical body, by bringing your full focus of awareness to your nostrils.

The only stimulus you receive is the one provided by your nostrils. Breathe normally. Just be conscious of the point just beyond the nostrils.

You might find that the breath becomes shallower and then slow down.

Do not rush through this stage. Don’t let your awareness waver.

In this stillness be conscious of the mind’s location, either in the chakric system or elsewhere.

Gently open your eyes, but stay still and unmoving as long as you can.

Let us now discuss a few of the answers so that you get an idea how to understand your answers.

Solar plexus

The energy it wishes you to process is the energy of power. Experience your power. Your mind has been giving you external catalysts which are constantly urging you to experience your power. Experience the power within you and the unpleasant external catalysts will not take place any more. There are emotions involved as well for which this information is vital. Very often you feel used and taken advantage of. This feeling is causing ‘lack’ within by your giving more and receiving less, and making you less powerful within, and is making you reach out to the external for succour, nurturing, love and acceptance. But the paradox is that the more strongly you reach outside for this, the less are you fulfilled, perpetuating the powerlessness within.

Your mind has the information of how you can come out of this struggle.  You can do the exercise again and allow the information to be revealed to you.

Third eye

You are permitting and inviting mental confusions to take place. You are creating external stimuli which are providing you with the mental body process that it reacts and responds to but you are deliberately not allowing that experience to be completed and are creating confusions which are being shown in your energy as tight little loops and these energies you are consciously creating so that you do not have to finish the experience completely. The feeling that is attached to these energy loops is one of great fear. These energy loops do not allow you to observe the external stimulus in its fullness, so you see partially, hear imperfectly, speak inaccurately…..every sense experiences the stimulus partially and tightens the loops further.

Use the Ray 4 for your mental energy so that you can get out of the loops. Allow the body to become still by means of the breath, access the mental energy and then flood it with ray 4 so that the loops clear up.

Above the belly button, below the solar plexus

Your mind is giving you information from the higher mind. It is accessing Divine Wisdom which it is allowing you to process at a physical level which you then can use for your own issue resolution or to share with others, or both as you desire.

When the mind resides below the belly button and just above the hara, you access the energy of Divine Love. In this position the mind holds a feeling energy and not as thought energy. This is a point of the higher love aspect as opposed to the higher mind aspect when the mind is above the belly button. You need to use this higher love energy for forgiveness for self and others and then emanate it to others around you who are in great need of it.

The visual I get is of a round ball with a flattened top and bottom, on top of which is a half moon, both at the top and the bottom. You will need to understand this visual on your own.

Heart

The mind is attempting to give you a gentler perception of either one situation or more. It is attempting to infuse your heart with a greater clarity so that the feelings you harbour of anger, rejection or envy, will be clarified, cleansed.

Throat

The mind wishes to give you information on how to communicate better… how best can you express your feelings without suppressing them and without causing pain to another. Communicate in a manner that is gentle but assertive, that respects your needs and those of others.

If you should choose to ignore the information given to you by the mind, the external catalysts will get stronger and maybe more unpleasant.

Now let us move to the heart. Just as the mental energy creates the mind energy, the emotional energy field creates the heart energy. Do not allow any confusion to take place here because of the physical organ which we also call the heart. In the case of the mind the physical organ was called the brain.

By and large, even today, 80 to 82% of the time the energy of the heart resides in the chakra that rules the heart organ. Those who suffer from heart conditions of any kind face situations which make the heart energy reside outside the heart chakra for periods longer than are healthy for the heart organ. Unlike the mind energy, the heart energy is the prana for the heart chakra. Taking in prana by any method taught to you, reenergizes the physical and etheric bodies, but it does not completely energize the heart chakra, which needs the heart energy to be fully energized, so that it is neither sluggish nor over-active.

It is important for us to know where this energy is and then to draw it back into our hearts.

Exercise to locate the heart energy

Still yourself by means of your breath letting the consciousness of breath not be the point of the nostrils but the umbilical cord region. Breathe through the belly-button.

Let your palms form a protective shield over your heart chakra.
Be gentle with yourself.

Feel your arms protecting you.

There is no need to fear.

In the complete inner stillness, ask your heart energy to reveal itself.

Those who did not locate the heart energy within the heart chakra, please share.

Hara

Your mind energy in the solar plexus gave you the same information that your heart energy in the hara is. The mind revealed to you that you think that you nurture others more than they nurture you. The nurturing you give others is being experienced by you as a more complete experience and the nurturing you receive from others is not completely fulfilling. The heart energy resides in your hara to nurture you, to give you the experience of being nurtured. But simultaneously it draws your attention to the fact that its most healthy position is the heart chakra. Use the information given to you by the mind to return the heart energy back to heat chakra.

Eyes

Your mind was in the solar plexus and thuds holds information of how you can become internally stronger. The heart energy being in the eyes it gives you a clearer, gentler view of all that you are, thus furthering self-nurturing. You need not express truths of yourself so harshly. In fact, is it the truth or is it a harsh perception of self? Understand that a harsh perception of self instantly translates into a harsh perception of the world.

Throat

Your mind was in the third eye and the heart is in the throat. The mental confusions stop you from speaking your truths. Very often you do not know what your truth is because of the tight loops. Those truths which are feeling related, your throat begins to get constricted and your throat chakra experiences an almost physical suffocation. The heart energy jumps to the throat to stop it from being suffocated.

Lower back

Your mind was also in the third eye but your heart energy being in the lower back shows that the mental confusions are bringing on tremendous insecurity … will I be able to look after myself?....thus the lower back is constricted. If this is not addressed urgently you could experience a situation like a slip-disc or a painful spasmodic reaction.

In the arm

This fits in with your message through the mind about Divine Love. You will be doing a physical action of giving love through your feminine energy. Translate your feeling into action.

Heart organ…is that normal?

No, the heart energy must normally reside in the heart chakra. The heart energy residing in the heart organ reveals a huge emotional issue that you need to tackle. The emotional issue is making you feel completely separated from self. There is a deep union to fell union, external and internal. You are feeling ‘alone’.

The heart energy will not move back to the heart chakra till you have completed the experience the heart energy wants you to complete. Sometimes the heart chakra does not get the energy it needs for years, resulting in heart ailments.

Our stress filled lives do not give us the permission to acknowledge even one, singular feeling completely. The heart energy keeps jumping to different parts in order to stabilize the different parts that are affected adversely by the stress. 

The sacred heart

Thank you… that is it exactly. When you see the Scared Heart picture of Jesus and see the rays emanating out, that is the heart energy residing in the heart chakra.

I saw mine predominantly in the heart chakra but it was also streaming out to another area

This means that that area needs a bit of the help but its not so urgent forcing the heart energy out of the heart chakra completely.

I saw two beams going down to the kidneys even though the heart chakra was completely expanded.

The kidneys are the storehouse of emotional toxins. When you have a urinary infection or a kidney problem instantly have several glasses of neem water. The bitterness of the neem cuts the bitterness of the emotional toxins that have become physical crystals in the kidney. You need to have the neem water for a couple of days and start on the emotional clearance exercises which we have learnt of in the recent weeks.

Thank you for giving me this opportunity to share with you this highly enlightening information that we have drawn from Self to self in the past month.
