11. Explaining is not feeling

Explaining is not living. Explanations can be used to promote teaching and practicing compassion, or to hypnotize people to buy junk, or scare them to support war.

The heart’s magnetic field:
Research has also revealed that the heart communicates information to
the brain and throughout the body via electromagnetic field interactions. The
heart generates the body’s most powerful and most extensive rhythmic
electromagnetic field. The heart’s magnetic component is about 500 times
stronger than the brain’s magnetic field and can be detected several feet away
from the body. It was proposed that, this heart field acts as a carrier wave for
information that provides a global synchronizing signal for the entire body
(McCraty, Bradley & Tomasino, 2004)
Heart field interactions between individuals
There is now evidence that a subtle yet influential electromagnetic or
‘energetic’ communication system operates just below our conscious awareness.
Energetic interactions possibly contribute to the ‘magnetic’ attractions or
repulsions that occur between individuals, and also affect social relationships. It
was also found that one person’s brain waves can synchronize to another
person’s heart (McCraty, 2004)

So if, as those studies suggest, also others can feel how you feel at heart, that how you feel is not separate and does not end at skin level, how would you like to feel? Or is it just a mind game?
