Mack has been one of my friends for some years.
He’s a pretty rational guy and is well skilled in
the martial arts, communications skills, has a
strong spiritual background and has traveled
extensively for years. He is living in Asia and
makes a good living doing international business
with China and Europe.
We met at a conference some years ago and after we
spent some time together we became Dharma brothers
and been in touch ever since. I received a call
from him the other day. It seems that he finally
met a girl that was his equal who he couldn’t stop
talking about.
He said, she is an artist, spiritual, a musician,
a healer, a dancer, a writer, mystical and a business lady.
Mack couldn’t stop talking about her, he sounded like a
teenager in love.
He said, “She is as delicate as a flower and
strong as a bull and as smart as a whip. She has
become my best friend in just a few months and
makes every cell in my body come alive.”
I congratulated him and wished him all the best
and asked; where did you meet her?
That’s when he told me she came into his life from
nowhere and like the fog that comes in from
everywhere all at once and she left just as
quickly.
Mack said his heart was broken.
“I’m a mess right now! I can’t eat, can’t sleep,
bills are piling high, I haven’t been able to work
in three weeks, ain’t bathed, can’t shave, cause
my heart is so tender like living in a blender.
I’m shaken and I’m stirred”
– Anthony Hamilton
This happens to all of us now and then. One of my
teachers told me long ago that if you want to have
your heart open, it has to break first.
Broken hearts are what give us strength,
understanding, and compassion. A heart never
broken, is pristine and sterile, and will never
know the joy of being imperfect.
As the saying goes “Tis better to have loved and
lost than never to have loved at all”
Many years ago when I first started to study with
the “Lama on the Mountain” I asked him if he would
open my heart chakra. He sort of blew me off; I
asked him a few times and got the same response
over and over.
One-day the Lama’s youngest daughter became very
sick she was just a baby and her fever spiked to
over 104. They had to take her to the hospital for
an emergency treatment. There wasn’t anybody to
watch their 5 year old, I immediately offered to
watch her and the parents were off to the hospital
with the baby.
They were gone for hours but I had no problem. I
love kids and for the most part they love me. We
went to town for an ice cream, took a long walk,
and played in the park, on the swings, played with
her stuffed animals and what ever else I could
think of to entertain a 5 year old. Finally they
came back home. The baby was much better. The Lama
on the Mountain said, “we are so grateful to you,
we didn’t know what we would have done if you
didn’t offer to watch our child. If there is
anything I can do for you please let me know.”
That’s when I laid it on him. Yes! There is, will
you open my heart?
The Lama chuckled and agreed to grant my request.
The next day we met in the meditation hall to
begin the ceremony.
He worked with me for the entire day and into the
late evening. The Lama did many different rituals,
prayers, and mantras. Touching different points
on my body with ritual objects, then it started to
happen. 
and then I
started to see the decaying of everything, death,
hunger, pain and suffering, starving so much
suffering it was very sad. I started to cry and
even after I came out of the meditation I cried
and sobbed for the entire week.
I now know why the Lama didn’t want to open me up
so quickly.
When one opens their heart it not only opens up to
all the beauty it opens up to everything and
that’s hard to swallow. I told Mack this story and
he understood. Opening your heart is a good thing
but very painful indeed.
I wish you the best in your Health, Wealth and
Happiness
