I’m reminded of something R. Buckminster Fuller said in his book, “Critical Path”. There is now irrefutable scientific evidence that each of us (every human being) emits an electrical vibration that is, because of the nature of electricity, a direct influence on the atmosphere, hemisphere, ionosphere and stratosphere (you can throw in the tropos and mesos if you like) and polarizes with every other vibration on the same current, i.e., positive or negative. These vibrations/currents are transmitted or conducted through the realm of the mind…our thoughts and are flowing or emitted from our solar plexus or our “heart” as we romantically refer to it. (We’ve all heard the saying, “thoughts are things”, right?) So, long story short, a “Peaceful Heart” ultimately and definitely does contribute to the peace of the planet and chaotic/negative hearts/thoughts do unwittingly contribute to the overall evidentiary chaos. Of course, RBF stumbled upon a spiritual truth that was established before the foundation of the world.
Solomon more or less summed it up when he said, “As a man thinketh, so is he.”
I think even the Gestalt Theory lends itself to this concept except that rather than “the whole being greater than the sum of it’s parts”, I think the theory can be advanced to reveal that “the whole is actually representative of the sum of it’s parts.”
You know what this means? In a nutshell, it means ultimately, we all bear responsiblity for the conditions around us... and a resounding YES, A PEACEFUL HEART CAN AND DOES MAKE THOSE CONDITIONS BETTER, MORE PEACEFUL...how could it not!!!
Just as one man's death and darkness diminishes life and light everywhere, one man's peaceful heart infinitely increases peace everywhere. So, I'm grateful for "Peaceful Hearts" from whomever they come and in whomever they are found...may they always and in all ways continue to beat on one accord.
Let love abide...
