The physical heart is delicate, even fragile; and yet, at the
center of our being, it powers the pulse of life. The spiritual
heart, as the wellspring of divine truth, has an unlimited
capacity for wisdom and love. It is a perfect altar for the
Christ, Who remembers the Creator in the child of God. As a
symbol of Love, the heart reminds us of our Source, and our
desire for true and holy relationship.
Why Open? To open the heart is to awaken to an inner reality
that calls from the deepest recesses of our being to be known
and experienced. Opening the heart is the work of looking
beyond the conceptual paradigm of our small mind toward an
understanding of our meaning and purpose in Spirit. Opening
is a decision for defenselessness, honesty, listening, accep-
tance, trust, forgiveness, patience and sharing. Our small
human life may then be broken open by Love, and through
Love realize the Kingdom within itself. The Foundation of
Open Hearts recognizes awakening as an endeavor of joining,
flowing from the union of all hearts in a journey to One
Source of eternal peace.
