Interactive Learning

When an idea or a picture comes in through the eyes or ears, most of us open the path to the brain, to the intellect, not to the heart center.
It then provokes thoughts and an intellectual game begins. This game is confined to the box called known. The inquiry that ensues is rational logical which is always within the box.
To open the path way to the heart we need to allow emotions a free sway. Then the process can be evocative (not provocative) and we would be able to go out of the box of logic and rationality. New ideas will come to mind that will cry for attention and will induce trying out.
Satatya, regularity and honesty of purpose, is an essential element of any sadhana. Most of us approach it casually. Then the returns are short lived.
Why do you write? You seem to intuitively know that learning is an interactive process. While helping your learning you want to assist me too.
Thanks for writing.
