Good morning.

Good morning to you. Today's quote comes from the Mwai-Tri Upanishad.

It says the mind should be kept in the heart as long as it has not reached the highest end.

This is wisdom and this is liberation. Everything else is only words.

So how do we keep our mind in the heart? Let's do a short practice and see if it vibes with you.

If you're somewhere safe, get comfortable and close your eyes.

And you may notice thoughts. But see if you can notice the silence that is inside right next to the thoughts.

You can even think of the thoughts like little birds in the big sky that you are inside.

And also notice the silence outside of you in the room or the environment that you're in.

Even if it's noisy, there's a quiet. And there are not two quiets. There's not a quiet inside

and a quiet outside, seemingly divided by that body. There's just one space.

One stillness. One silence and it feels like it pastes like love.

There's a lot of activity that seems to happen in the head space.

Behind the eyes, somewhere between the ears.

Behind your senses of your nose and mouth. And so right now I want you to ride an elevator down from

the noise in the head from the noisy mind. Ride an elevator down into your heart space.

Don't think about it just to do it.

You're shifting your center, your seat, of consciousness from the head space to the heart space.

It's much more peaceful here.

It's much more quiet. It's calmer. It's easier to fill the love here.

It's like going from being in the blazing hot sun to being in the cool,

welcoming shade. It's like going from being in a noisy room, stepping outside.
