How to distinguish whether a feeling of presence in the chest is from the Psychic influence or from the Heart Chakra? 🪷🌼❤️‍🔥

The heart Chakra mainly opens the floodgates of emotions. The psychic, which is right behind, turns these emotions, as well as thoughts and will, towards the Divine. The chakras are simply a vortex of energies that acts like a knot to restrict the universal into a limited individual working. When the heart Chakra opens, it merely floods the heart with excessive emotions, which can even be destabilising. But with the psychic contact, these emotions begin to turn towards the Divine in a growing state of faith, sincerity and surrender. The seat of aspiration towards the Divine is always in the psychic being. It is only under its influence that emotions will turn towards the Divine. Otherwise, it will just be an excess of emotions pouring from every side, above, around, below. The emotions in the emotional centre are mixed, a mixture of truth and falsehood. Psychic feelings are always turned towards the Divine and when they turn towards the world, it is towards Truth, Beauty and Good. 

Affectionately,

It is like getting delayed by the scenery on the way. Stay focused on giving oneself more and more to the Divine, growing in faith, sincerity, love and surrender,…

People who make such remarks are unfortunately very poorly informed about either Bergson and Kant let alone Sri Aurobindo whom they have certainly not read. 

Sri Aurobindo’s major works include two treatises on the Vedas including a deep and intricate study of Vedic philology, the major Upanishads with a detailed commentary on the Isha and Kena, detailed essays on the Gita, Foundations of Indian Culture. His two most important works has, one, the story of Savitri as a base; the second,..
