Your Infinite Heart

ByMatthew

When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you begin to discover that it’s bottomless, that it doesn’t have any resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much space. – Pema Chodron

Do you have any thoughts or beliefs that contradict the above?

How do you do that?

How do you keep thinking that your heart, and you, are anything but that?
