Think With Your Heart

Recent research in biology points to findings that our thoughts actually originate in the heart organ, and that the brain is actually a go-between, or filter, for our thoughts. But like any go-between it is confronted with the potential to alter the transaction with its own bias or intention, oftentimes favoring stimulation/gratification over appropriate non-participation, omission or compassion. The heart knows the right answers, but the brain steps in, and in its process of translating the heart's intent, is in a position to possibly alter the body's response to the situation. So I think it's a a good idea that we think with our hearts, and trust in those feelings as true thoughts, unaltered by the chemicals of the brain. By doing this, I believe the level of good in the world will increase immediately, as a result of the contentment brought about by us making better decisions.

Especially now, with so many toxins in the air, food and water chain - and apparently from the commercials every other person (or three of five) on some sort of mind/mood-stabilizing prescribed pill company potion, whether they want to be or not based on that water stream aspect - brain chemistry is not such a pure science, or substance. Granted, the heart's purity on a meatspace level is itself a relative condition in our environment, but the signal it receives at its source renders all natural impedance insignificant, in an electrical sense.

Compassion has no regrets. Think about thinking compassionately. Think about having no regrets!
