THÉOPHILE L’ANCIEN shares some practical wisdom about heart to heart communication, to help us deepen our connection with each other.
Theophile the younger
Today I would like you to talk about communication. In today’s world of the Internet and mobile phones, it seems out of step, but I know that you have mastered a completely different way of communication, as you practice it so often with me. Would you mind telling me more about it?
Theophile the elder
Please, know that communication occurs even more at the nonverbal level than it does through conversation. At the deepest level, it is a connection between two hearts, two beings. Usually, this communication is unconscious and left to chance.
My proposal to you is to consciously connect with others at the deepest level. When two hearts are linked together by light, this immediately creates the phenomenon of empathy.
There is neither distance nor separation anymore with your partner. She or he feels listened to, understood and accepted by you.
Would you like to try?
Gently close your eyes, as it will be easier.
Choose a friend whom you like very much.
Dive into the depths of your heart.
Get in touch with the light until you are in intimate union with it.
Let all this light imbue your inner space.
Then only, let your heart set up a link of light with the heart of your friend.
What happens? Would you mind describing it to me?
Theophile the younger
I notice a ray of light between our two hearts. It is very sweet. The hearts are in touch, harmoniously blending. It is peaceful and thoughtless. I am here and elsewhere at the same time.

Theophile the elder
You may open your eyes again. The link of the heart with your friend is set up now. You just need to invoke it and you will be in touch with him, whether you are physically together or not, to rekindle your heart bond.
Start again and go deep into the silence of your heart. Without willing, just evoke your friend.
What happens?
Theophile the younger
The link is there. It is sweet and warm, enveloping. Love is present, filling all the space. It seems that a communication takes place between us. I slightly lose the notion of my person whilst staying myself. We are in harmony.
Theophile the elder
Imagine now your two hearts speaking wordlessly.
Theophile the younger
I know this already, as that is what we often do together when I am speechless or when words are not necessary anymore. I like those moments, like when we are sitting by the fireplace, silently looking at the flames. When this inner dialogue stops by itself, I have the feeling that my being is content.
Theophile the elder keeps silent, settled in his resting heart. The inner fire crackles.
Theophile the younger
I would like to go further. Currently, this friend of mine has a problem and has asked for my help. What should I do?
Theophile the elder
Above all, do not rush. Since the link between your hearts is there, invoke it. Let light do its work when your friend faces difficulties. Listen through your heart.

Listen through your heart.
Theophile the younger
A stream of thoughts arises. Should I tell my friend all the ideas that come?
Theophile the elder
Your ideas are often right, but words are first vibrations. They rather go first through the filter and the silence of your heart, which will be in resonance and touch your friend’s heart before the ideas could even been said through words. These ideas are the essence itself of the non-verbal communication we discussed a while before.
Would you mind closing your eyes again?
Think of your friend in the inner space of your heart. When your friend speaks to you, listen to your heart. Listen to your feelings at the same time as he is speaking to you. He will feel a relief, with the certainty that he has found the solution within himself.
After a silence:
The solution is within each one of us. People need neither our solution, nor even the solution of their own mind and reason. Those answers may be wrong, while those coming from the light of their soul are the appropriate truth. Mind and reason have their purpose: they come afterwards to implement what the heart has dictated.

Close your eyes again. What do you feel?
Theophile the younger
The two fields are only one. The two souls of ours are in communion. My friend was agitated and he is now at peace, everything is okay.
A simple thought emerges in my mind: I can possibly share the solution that has come to me if my friend does not find it.
Theophile the Elder interrupts
Be careful! It is important to listen to your interlocutor with your heart. Give him time to express himself, even if you have already received the answer. Give him time to listen to his heart and to learn how to speak with it.
Theophile the younger
Is this mind reading? Is that called telepathy?
Theophile the Elder
Not exactly. This is because of empathy: you immediately receive the thoughts, emotions, and pleasant or unpleasant feelings of your counterpart. With this empathy, you are connected to the totality of the being sitting in front of you. One of my spiritual Guides said that thoughts are quicker than sunlight. Sunlight takes nine minutes to reach the earth, while thoughts can do it instantaneously.
A Guide can receive you totally
because he is nothing by himself,
his personality being merged in the Divine.
It is not always easy to feel this wholeness. You should forget yourself as much as possible. Your receptivity will depend on your sensitivity, the level of your purity and your elevation. A Guide can receive you totally because he is nothing by himself, his personality being merged in the Divine. Should his answer be verbal or not, it is always connected to the Source and supported by universal love. You have nothing else to do but live it.
