Viveca Monahan
The literature around
spiritual psychology and the human heart consistently discusses two kinds of
knowing. There is scientific knowing, which is linear, analytical, rational,
verbal and mechanical. And there is poetic knowing or poesis, which is
holistic, intuitive and has depth. The heart "perceives" while the
brain "knows." Language creates images. What we name a thing, becomes
that which we named. The heart has its own language that rises to the surface
just when we need it most. This access requires only that we silently ask. And
then patiently wait.
