Soul Knowledge Beyond Our Thinking Brain

All beings with souls are extensions of God. Therefore, all beings are also God. This is what Jesus taught. In John 10:34, Jesus references Psalm 82:6, which states, “I said, ‘You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you; nevertheless, like men you shall die, and fall like any prince.'”  We’re all children of God, and God is found by going within, to the soul connection.

The idea that souls are extensions of God, or part of God’s essence, is a common belief across various religious and philosophical traditions. It suggests that souls, the essence of a person’s being, are connected to or originate from a higher power. This connection can be seen as a reflection of God’s image in humanity, or as a direct manifestation of God’s presence within us. 

Your Soul, or Higher Self, is the real you. This is the part of you that has access to knowledge your thinking brain does not. It’s the part of you that is eternal and can never be destroyed. All experiences go towards our soul’s growth.

Anyone can connect to their Soul or Higher Self, and ask questions, and receive answers. The heart is often viewed as a central point of connection with this higher self. By nurturing the heart, individuals may feel more connected to their inner wisdom and spiritual potential.

While there’s no scientific proof that the heart-brain connection is the direct pathway to a ‘higher self,’ many spiritual and holistic practices suggest it plays a crucial role in connecting with a deeper, more intuitive aspect of oneself.  It is known that the heart and brain are in constant communication so doesn’t it make sense that our hearts are guiding our thoughts? 

The heart, in these contexts, is often viewed as a center of intuition, emotional intelligence, and spiritual awareness. It is believed to send emotional and intuitive signals to the brain that guide our thoughts, choices, and actions.

The HeartMath Institute’s research revealed the heart is not merely a pump, but an intelligent organ with its own complex nervous system.

This heart system is often referred to as a “mini-brain” or the intrinsic cardiac nervous system (ICNS). It’s a network of neurons, neurotransmitters, and support cells are similar to those found in the brain. This discovery has led to a reevaluation of how the heart functions.

Heartmath research suggests that aligning the heart’s rhythm with our thoughts and feelings can lead to a state of coherence, which promotes well-being and resilience.  Some believe that tapping into this connection can lead to a heightened sense of intuition, allowing individuals to access inner wisdom and guidance.

Many spiritual practices encourage visualization and meditation techniques to connect with the heart center and the higher self and allow individuals to cultivate a deeper sense of awareness and intuition.  In essence, while the ‘higher self’ remains a conceptual and subjective experience, the heart-brain connection offers a potential pathway for accessing deeper levels of awareness and intuition. By nurturing the heart and engaging in practices that foster inner connection, individuals may find themselves better equipped to connect with their Higher Selves and their soul’s spiritual potential. 

Heart Intelligence suggests that connecting with the heart’s intuitive guidance can lead to better decision-making and outcomes.  This concept is explored in books like Heart Intelligence: Connecting with the Intuitive Guidance of the Heart by Doc Childre, Howard Martin, Deborah Rozman, and Rollin McCraty, available on Amazon.com and on HeartMath.
