How often do listen to our hearts?
By Anna Karina Gutierrez

How often in life are we truly happy and content?
Where do love and compassion come from?

Love and compassion come from our hearts in it's true natural state.
The natural state of the heart is love and compassion.
But when the ego and externalities come into “our experience” or so called "life", we are shaken. And we mistakenly regard our true nature as one of fear, lack, sadness, unwellness. Imperfection, boredom etc... How can we lack anything if we are whole and complete? each one of us is whole, complete and perfect (even if we don't believe it) it's still our natural state.

Sometimes we don't want to face this truth and pain comes in. Instead of being our true nature (which is one in unity with all) we become “divided”. We (the ego) create the me the you, the judging, the ego, the blaming. So we feel lost, sad, hurt, angry all because we did not believe or misperceived the truth.

Only through awareness we return to our graceful natural state. Awareness is the bridge to our way back home. Awareness from the moment we believe we are not ourselves. Each time we talk to someone we are really talking to ourselves. Can we believe this? yes if we really listen inside our hearts. It's easier to hear in silence.

Once we step out from our “roles” or “egos” in life everything changes! there is no i no finite, only union, infinity. We become infinity and one with all through our conscience awareness. we become purified again through awareness.

We have two options either we believe truth or we believe illusion.

Life as we know it (from our egos, our bodies, our work, our needs) is an illusion. That's why we must do the work of awareness. So we can become one again with our natural state of divinity.

Awareness of our hearts

Each time we feel confused, lost or sad go inside and connect to the heart in silence and see something amazing happen. We think we are different from “others”, our egos and our minds don't stop judging, blaming, thinking.

And the truth is we are all one in spirit.
When we all become one in spirit we experience happiness and contentment.

We each have the choice to decide what to make real for us and what not to create. We are the creators and when we become one with infinity (all externalities loose their meaning, beacuase they cease to exist) there is an end to suffering. This is why the world as you know it, at some point in evolution, will not be real anymore.
