Day 5 - Coming Out of the Disconnect


Today Deepak talks about being open in heart. We have talked about this many times here. Opening your heart and being willing to risk rejection will greatly improve your life. Understanding that rejection is one sided and that you can still be loving in the face of it, is a major step to happiness.


“Everything exposed to the light becomes visible, and everything that is illuminated itself becomes light itself.” – St. Paul

Even though we all seek meaningful connections, we also often avoid closeness and intimacy because it can be scary to our ego self, making it feel vulnerable and threatened. When that happens, we turn off and disconnect emotionally. We retreat into our false, separate self as a defense mechanism. 
In today’s meditation, we learn that our real self never fears or feels threatened by heartfelt connections. It only knows how to connect and how to love. As our true nature blossoms, our ego fears and defenses dissolve in the light of our love.
