The Spiritual Heart
The Spiritual Heart represents our truest essence—it is the core of who we are, a dimension beyond words. It is the Witness Consciousness, that quiet observer of all our thoughts, feelings, sensations, and the vast universe in all its forms, both within and around us.
This Heart can be felt when we bring our attention to the area around the chest. A subtle, almost imperceptible vibration emerges there, free from any thought, when the mind is calm. This is the beginning of the Sacred Tremor, known as spanda. It marks the first encounter with the Spiritual Heart. By relaxing, slowing down, and gently closing our eyes, we allow this vibration to naturally rise.
This soft, yet profound pull of Infinity, emanating from the chest, represents the Heart in its most personal and powerful form. It carries within it the warmth of truth, a warmth that communicates on a deeper level. Without this connection, teachings would remain abstract concepts—lifeless and disconnected. The true power of the Spiritual Heart lies in this intimate vibration, this trembling of the soul.
With time, the Heart transforms into more than just a passive observer. It becomes the source of our awareness (the knower), the medium through which we understand, and the very object of knowledge. The practice of meditation moves from the Heart and ultimately returns to it.
“As we reconnect with the Heart, the endless distractions of the world fade into silence.
The Heart becomes a sanctuary of peace.”
Typically, the mind is driven by purpose and intention, and is controlled by the ego. It seeks to gather information, conquer challenges, and maintain control over the objects of activity and the process of self-knowing. When we withdraw our senses and focus inward, centering ourselves on the heart space, we begin to seek something deeper—beyond the external world.
This shift takes us from the mind’s usual drive for control to a more receptive, contemplative state. It’s a process of surrender, but one that requires clarity, discernment, and alertness. This is why so many mystical traditions speak of the path of leading the mind to the Heart.
In the Heart, action takes on a different quality. It is not an effort driven by ego, but rather a radiant presence, pure and untainted.
The mind acquires knowledge through a gradual process, through seeking and gathering. The Heart, on the other hand, knows through trust, surrender, and joy. Mind-based knowledge is linear and fragmented, while the Heart’s wisdom is immediate, whole, and undivided. It is an awakening, a revelation of unity, the realization of non-duality.
The Spiritual Heart and Plant Medicines
In the same manner in which the mind is trained in school through the process of education, our Heart needs to be cultivated. In the domain of the Heart, most of us are somewhat or entirely illiterate.
Of course, the process is different because its attributes are different. While meditation and acting in love are the major ways to cultivate the spiritual Heart, there are other ways to support the path, like art, contemplation, and….plant medicines.
In ancient traditions, psychedelic plant medicines have long been viewed as pathways to the heart, offering profound spiritual and emotional insights. To them, the heart holds a deeply symbolic and spiritual significance, often representing the seat of wisdom, emotion, and connection to the divine. The heart is viewed not just as a physical organ but as a spiritual center, a space where one can access profound insights and healing.
For instance, in the Andean tradition, the heart is considered the center of “inti” or “light” and is thought to be the core of personal transformation. Shamans often speak of the “phuyu” (cloud) that can cloud the heart, causing emotional blockages. Through rituals involving plant medicines like San Pedro cactus (Huachuma), individuals can “clear the cloud” from the heart, bringing balance and healing. The heart is seen as a place where one must reconnect with compassion, love, and harmony with nature.
Among the Mayan and Aztec peoples, the heart was viewed as a sacred vessel. The Aztecs believed that the heart was where the soul resided and that through psychedelic substances, individuals could achieve spiritual purification and elevate their connection to the divine. The heart was also linked to the Tlaloc, the god of rain, as rain was often seen as the lifeblood of the earth, just as the heart is to the body.
For the Mazatec people of Mexico, who have a long history of using psilocybin mushrooms in their spiritual practices, the heart is seen as the center of one’s personal truth. The experience of the mushroom is said to help individuals “listen to their heart” in a literal and metaphorical sense, guiding them to resolve inner conflict and reconnect with their authentic selves. The sacredness of the heart is reflected in their belief that it is the gateway to understanding the divine.
In all these traditions, plant medicines are not just used to alter consciousness but to open and heal the heart, facilitating a deeper connection to self, others, and the universe. The heart is considered a sacred space where one’s inner wisdom, emotional clarity, and capacity for love can be fully realized and nurtured through these transformative experiences.
