In various places in holy writings, hardness of heart is mentioned (e.g., the Pharaoh not wanting to let the Children of Israel leave Egypt). There are those who assume that this means that a person has a heart wall (a concept introduced in the Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson). I have found that hardness of heart is something different than a heart wall in several main aspects.
1) A heart wall is outside of the heart; hardness of heart is incorporated into the structure of the heart.
2) A heart wall is primarily constructed of unresolved trapped emotions; hardness of heart is constructed of mental energy that is not of light and which is used to reinforce the heart.
3) Heart wall components are used to cover up damaged, severed or missing connections between the spirit and body. These connection problems keep true light from flowing as it should; hardness of heart is an attempt to strengthen weaknesses in a person’s ability to be properly connected and allow true light to flow as it should.
***Please notice the difference here: the former refers to problems in a system; the latter to a problematic system. You can have a system that is healthy and all it needs is clearing and balancing, or you can have a system that is simply weak even when it is cleared and balanced.
Non-light mental energy can be from self, inherited, forced on, absorbed from others, preconceptual. In this respect, the mechanics of how non-light mental energy comes into the body are not much different than with negative emotional energy such as trapped emotions. However, non-light mental energy is not comparable to negative emotional energy which can simply be cleared when it is fully unattached. Non-light mental energy is more like the structural aspects of computer programming while trapped emotional energy is like the content the programming generates and moves around. Without programming and the definitions it specifies, content information is useless and meaningless. You would never be able to know “love” or what people meant by it if you did not have the programming to let yourself understand and relate – you would have no relation to it. People can send you “love” energy but if you do not have the programming to accept and allow it into your heart and existence, not only do you not feel this “love”, it doesn’t get in you. If it doesn’t get in you, it cannot become part of your essence and help you heal and connect. The goal of this existence is to connect in all healthy ways possible but we need the programming made of light to do it.
The next question is how do you resolve a system weakness? The answer is: _you_ don’t. A system weakness needs to be resolved by the system designer then only the system designer knows what is necessary to resolve a weakness in the system. The designer I am referring to is the Divine/Source/the Creator/God/Pure White Perfect Light. Those that are designed by definition do not have the complete awareness and skill necessary to fix a running system, so to speak. But the Designer does. Why would the Designer design something with weaknesses? To allow resources to go to another part of the system first so that part can learn (true intelligence is all about learning and accumulating light). Once the system has learned what it needs to learn from the experience, the weakness can be resolved or reconfigured as the case may be in this metaphor.
Obviously we are the designed and we have weaknesses, at times inherit in our design. Humans are designed with weaknesses for a purpose – to learn and grow and serve ourselves and the Designer. This implies the need for trust. When we discover we have a weakness in any part of our system, we need to let our Designer take care of it rather than trying to take care of it ourselves – we simply cannot do a good job at this – this is why we can develop ‘hardness of heart’ – our imperfect attempt to strengthen our weakness. The only true way of resolving a weakness is by asking our Creator to show us our weakness (one at a time is probably better) so that we can become humble about this weakness. Here ‘humble’ means completely open to all the information necessary to know (including subconsciously) about this weakness so we can let it go fully. When we let it go fully, our Creator can reconfigure us so that the light that was not able to flow previously due to the weakness can now flow properly. This means the weakness is no longer and there is a strength there instead. When we acknowledge this new strength before our Creator and ask that it be sufficient for our life and existence (which includes all of the good influence we have in the world – for example, as practitioners), our new strength becomes stronger and we are fortified. Letting this new light into our essences is how we learn and grow and expand in understanding and ability to take action.
