A heart solution

The solution is within our hearts, not within our heads.

The mind and ego are selfish by nature and only care for their interests. They see a need to survive and control at all costs. They feel nothing about humanity. Humanity is a word, an idea or an object. Even attempts by the mind and ego to seem like a humanitarian gesture are not without selfish ambitions.

You do not convince a person’s mind and ego that something is morally right. They may go along with you because they are influenced by guilt or public opinion, but inside they are still the same. Nothing has changed because the heart has not been opened. They are still doing what is best for them according to the actions of others.

Feelings make us very human and help us to connect through compassion and empathy with others. We see beyond our mind and ego and realize others may experience life just as we do at times. It is the common seed with our common consciousness. We feel close, vulnerable and human when we are in our hearts. It is much easier to do what is best for all and not just the one.
