When an open heart implies chaos

[Sacred Fool]

There is a premature danger of doing work in the higher centers. But is there a premature danger of doing work in the heart? My question is specifically addressing adepts.

Skimming through this thread of thoughts, I didn't notice anyone mention that, yes, some chaos can be introduced in this sense.  Blockage of the heart might indicate that you defend yourself from catalyst in ways that you will no longer be able to use once you allow your heart to participate in the way you accept life circumstances.  In other words, you may be thrown off by having to soften your approach to people.  The more constricted your blockage, the more it will throw you off-balance to alleviate it, I would guess.  You may feel awkward being less self-directed and going more with the flow, as another example.  Perhaps you could be disturbed by coming to understand what a louse you've been to others?  Taking it a bit further, you could--potentially--discover that all your life you have been unloved and that this fact has severely warped your personality. That could be somewhat disturbing, no?

The process may cost you something in some way, but on the other hand, what price would you not pay for greater wholeness?
