FREE HEART
A free heart is similarly a heart delivered from the gusts and storms of the
affections and the
passions;
the assailing touch of grief, wrath, hatred, fear, inequality of love, trouble of joy, pain of sorrow fall away
from the equal heart, and leave it a thing large, calm, equal, luminous, divine... The ego-sense which induces
us to act as separate beings who make their isolated claim and experience the test of the values of the universe,
is responsible for these aberrations. When we live in unity with the Divine in ourselves and the spirit of the
universe, these imperfections fall away from us and disappear in the calm and equal strength and delight of the
inner spiritual existence. Always that is within us and transforms the outward touches before they reach it by
a passage through a subliminal psychic soul in us which is the hidden instrument of its delight of being. By equality
of the heart we get away from the troubled desire-soul in the surface, open the gates of this profounder being,
bring out its responses and impose their true divine values on all that solicits our emotional being. A free, happy,
equal and all-embracing heart of spiritual feeling is the outcome of this perfection.
To the free spirit wrath and hatred are impossible, but not the strong Rudra
energy of the Divine which can battle without hatred and destroy without wrath.
Around him shone a great felicitous Day.
A lustre of some rapturous Infinite,
It held in the splendour of its golden laugh
Regions of the heart's happiness set free,
Intoxicated with the wine of God,
Immersed in light, perpetually divine.
