"Most of us armor our hearts in dealing with the immensity of the suffering that exists in the world. We look at all the people who are starving when we have just finished a big breakfast and we turn away. We feel like there is nothing we can do and can't bear to see the suffering.
Armoring the heart is the opposite of opening the heart. You know the feeling of loving another person; you know how love feeds you. It is also with love that we feed each other. But when you experience overwhelming suffering, most of us veil our hearts. Your heart feels protected and less vulnerable but it is also deadened in the process.
Armoring the heart cuts off the living spiritual interchange of energy that exists in the universe..."
