Viola Rose, a transformational sound artist and spiritual healer, introduces the idea of 'coming home' as a daily practice of breathing and orienting one's awareness within the sacred heart space. She explains that this simple practice creates a sense of home regardless of external circumstances.
Viola shares her personal journey, spurred by the Fukushima event in 2011, which led her to realize that true preparation for life's challenges lay in connecting with the heart. This quest led her to Drunvalo Melchizedek's book 'Living in the Heart' and eventually to facilitating his 'Awakening the Illuminated Heart' workshops.
Viola explains that the mind, operating on data and duality, generates fear and stress, preventing relaxation. The heart, however, fosters inherent relaxation and presence, allowing for fluid and calm responses to life's events, free from drama and fear.
The discussion delves into the fundamental difference: the mind functions within duality (good/bad, positive/negative), while the heart is a portal to non-duality and unity consciousness, a space of pure love and peace. When we primarily inhabit our minds, we create a reality based on duality; anchoring in the heart shifts our reality to unity consciousness, leading to a life of grace instead of a roller coaster of ups and downs.
Viola suggests that the mind is a useful tool for navigating the 3D world but should serve the heart, not lead it. To begin living from the heart, one must consciously shift their spirit's orientation from the head to the sacred heart space. This involves imagining a 'physical' journey into the heart, a sacred temple-like space that often feels familiar and peaceful.
Viola clarifies that traumas are not within the sacred heart space itself but are stored around it, sometimes blocking access. Clearing these traumas, even carving a small pathway, allows entry into the heart. Once within the heart's unity consciousness, the vibration helps dissolve remaining traumas through self-love and acceptance.
The heart acts as a portal to a deeper truth, the 'great mystery' of existence, which is beyond this dualistic realm. While the mind often distracts with external realities, the heart provides direct access to this knowable yet undefinable truth, offering a profound sense of 'home.'
Viola notes that societal programming often pulls us away from the subtle nature of the heart towards the bold distractions of the external world. While commitment is key, consistent daily practice, even just 5 minutes, is more beneficial than infrequent long sessions. It's about remembering to relax into the heart and return to this 'home base' throughout the day.
Viola discusses Drunvalo Melchizedek's new book, 'The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life Volume Three: Awakening the Illuminated Heart,' which serves as a study companion to the workshops. She also explains the Merkaba—a light body or spiritual chariot that allows for interdimensional travel and connection to higher frequencies, enabling progression beyond the reincarnation cycle upon death.
Viola addresses skepticism about Drunvalo's teachings, suggesting that one doesn't need to believe literally but rather receive the transmission from the heart. She emphasizes that the heart provides access to all knowledge and wisdom, empowering individuals to tap into their own deeper knowing without external validation, fostering personal sovereignty and a new reality based on love.
Viola's 'Awakening the Illuminated Heart' workshops are available online, in-person in Sedona, and via self-study. She offers an introductory class as a free gift. Her final advice is to 'learn to relax for no reason' and stay home in the heart, responding to external events without reacting, creating a new path from a place of peace.
