The Silent Language of the Heart
The language of the heart is silent . . . we call it the “unstruck sound” in the Heart Chakra. The essence of all that is, is in the heart centre . . . the essence of Divinity within you.
So, you are what you ARE not what you do. In Yoga we know what we are made of, through experience of the Koshas, our subtle bodies, which surround the germ of the Self. And we say “I AM THAT I AM . . .” in silence and self-awareness for clearer, deeper self-knowledge.
Through dedication to our Yoga practice we open, activate and accelerate our Spiritual Vision: seeing life in an energetic way, with spiritual eyes, so we can work with the Divine in our lives. Essentially what this means is learning to recognise our signs, symbols and messages from the Universe about existence flowing through our lives. Most of these are silent, non-verbal communications from the Divine and the Divine Mother. Then through dedication to our practice we turn intuitions, feelings, fleeting inspirations into enduring behaviour supported by values and meaning.
Heart Chakra practices help us in opening to our Spiritual Vision through the silent language of the heart. We have so much practice in Yoga for the heart centre that continuing this theme of our work becomes a life practice. We work on the inner relaxation process, so we can focus on inner listening . . . in Heart Chakra meditation practice with the Hridaya heart hand mudra strengthens focus on the Flame in the Heart. Bringing together Pranayama and breath awareness in the So Ham meditation helps us learn the silent meaning of “I AM THAT, THAT I AM . . “
Namaste, Susan
In this Youtube meditation class there is a Satsang on the Path of the Heart, and practices on inner relaxation and So Ham.
Susan Ni Rahilly has reached an interesting point in her life now that she’s in her mid-sixties: as an author/publisher and Zen, Yoga and Meditation teacher she considers herself “trans-genre”—a multi-dimensional teacher inspired by Ancient roots of both Zen and Yoga. These roots reach back to Divine Feminine practices and inspire her ongoing research into our innate abilities for deep listening and intuitive practice: awakening and accelerating our Spiritual Vision as change-agents for Humanity’s future. She is also the Spoken Word Artist SuZen.
