The Similarity Between The Heart & Mind

Observing and analysing two seemingly diametric phenomena from a unified perspective

In this article, as the title suggests, we are going to be looking at the concept of the Heart and Mind. These are two words that can have a wide variety of different meanings depending on the context in which they are being used. It is for this reason then that at the beginning of the article, it is worth us first taking time to look specifically at some of these potential different meanings, so that the reader can have a more accurate understanding with regards to what context these words are being used in throughout the course of this article. It is also natural that even after having put some effort toward defining these terms, there will likely still be at least a degree of interpretation towards them from the reader.

This is why in much of the content that is published here an effort has been made towards establishing a consciousness framework. One of the primary reasons for this is to gradually develop and establish a common perspective from which we can relate to every phenomenon we want to investigate, discuss, and look at. It is often our own categorization of the world into various different separate ‘things’ which makes any effort of ours to reconcile all of these ‘things’ back into one unified perspective more difficult. Conversely, if we are able to start our investigations from a more unified perspective, it is then far easier to perceive the wide variety of different ‘things’ more accurately, using this unified perspective as the basis for how we observe and interact with them. By doing this we are able to see through the phenomenal aspect of ‘things’ and gradually come to the reality, which is there, only hidden behind the various blocks we may have in our conscious perception.

This brief introduction to the article can only momentarily touch on what is an extremely expansive discussion, a full understanding of which would really require a concerted effort by the seeker to be able to grasp the vast depth of the various concepts contained within it. For the seeker who is willing to devote a significant amount of time towards that end, for those that have a burning desire to find the answers to life’s deepest questions, these concepts are outlined and looked at in a more methodical manner over the course of the Unified Consciousness Framework. These articles, even though they are far more brief in comparison, allow us to be able to look at a wide variety of different subjects and hopefully act as a means to inspire the reader to want to probe into these subjects further, perhaps even sparking an interest in them to come to perceive this unified perspective.

Word Games

As well as looking at the Heart and Mind, a distinction in this article will also be made between the phenomenon of the Heart, heart, Mind and mind. The reader should note that one version of each use of the word is denoted with the first letter of the word being capitalized. The capitalization of each word creates a clearer distinction between the two different meanings in the article, one of which is the common use-case meaning of these words and the other being related to a meaning which will be defined shortly. With our common use of these words, the word heart is usually used to refer to the physical organ in the body. The use of the word mind also commonly refers to what we interpret as being the product of a functioning brain.
