Yogic thought for the day

Yoga Vasistha says there are two hearts: one keeps breaking and feeling and may be identified even with the physical heart. There is another one.. often blocked for most of us (Vishnu Granthi -- the knot of Vishnu, of being good, sweet, this or that race, the subtle ego that exists on positive patterns).
Here, more on this, as retold by Ramana Maharishi, from Yoga Vasistha.

"When we reflect, we see that all the beings in the world have two different hearts. One of these is worth acceptance, the other worthy of rejection. Listen how they differ. The organ called the heart placed somewhere in the chest of the physical body is worth rejection. The Heart which is the  form of pure Awareness is worth acceptance, it is both within and without. It has no inside or out.

It is the essential heart in which all the world abides. It is the mirror in which all things are seen. It is the source of all wealth. Hence Awareness may be termed the Heart of all things. The Heart is not part of the perishable body inert like a stone."

Mmm I wish I can feel that Heart:whenever I know my heart exists, it always announces itself, through pain:(
