Heart Mind

Where is the center of the universe? From the perspective of a human observer, it is here on earth.

Where is the center of your universe? From our usual perspective, it is in our heads.

Both points of view can be shifted.

Consider the sensation of your heart beat. Does it feel at some distance from you?

Is the sensation not part of you? Does it not arise within you?

Your head is just the place where certain sensory apparatus is placed. It is not the center of your universe.

Let that center that you think is in your head shift. Let it move down towards sensation.

Perhaps imagine it centered around your heart and observe the difference. Do emotions become more palpable? Do the boundaries you imagined around your head start to recede?
