In prior sessions, Q'uo described the idea that there is a path of wisdom and a path of the open heart. Buddhism tends to appeal more to those on the path of wisdom, and Christianity tends to appeal more for those on the open heart. Also, I believe that Q'uo once said that the path of the open heart tends to produce results more quickly.
In the United States, most spiritual seekers who are awakening are on the path of the open heart.
However, some of us are unequivocally on the path of wisdom. It is easy for us to get stuck in a rut due to a rather academic approach to spirituality, and it is also easy to become emotionally stubborn because the knowledge of human behavior makes it more difficult to take social situations and interactions seriously.
Beyond daily meditation and stillness, how can we find balance and perhaps gain more of what is commonly found by those who cannot approach spirituality through an intellectual lens?
