"The person concentrating and meditating on Anahata Chakra may easily have out of body experiences, he or she may easily "fly" to another realms, into paradise-like universes or into another person's body, experiencing the other person's states. Such a person becomes the instrument of the divine cosmic love and obtains all the other divine qualities."

From a mundane perspective, a person with awakened Anahata Chakra will have a well-developed artistic sense, mastering art, poetry, or prose.

In a human being the awakening of Anahata Chakra allows the experience of sublime states of love as well as the intimate, mysterious communion with the Son of God, Jesus Christ.

Let us remember the wonderful vision of Sundar Singh: "And I began to pray: "O, Lord, You who are everywhere,You who are the water of my life, have mercy on me and fill me up with your Holy Spirit and with your love, so that nothing else could get inside of me ever again.

I want only You inside my heart, for ever and ever. I do not want blessings, I want You, only You. I do not want the world, I do not want the vanities, I do not want its glory, I do not want the sky. I want You.

Because for me you are the sky. In you I found my peace and tranquility of my heart. My heart is for you, not for any other beings. Therefore, my heart can find its peace only in you, Father, the one who seeded in me this thirst for peace and You.

Tear from my heart all that is against you will, come and dwell inside of me and lead my heart to wherever you desire.

When I got up, what did my eyes see? A being made of rays of light, of a beauty beyond all words was standing in front of me.

Although that being of light did not say a word, although I was not able to look properly at it because the tears filling my eyes were hindering my sight, a wave of love was coming from that being and a divine light was filling my soul.

I recognized immediately the Lord. I came from the rock and I fell before Him. He had the key to open the gate of my heart and to fill it up with His love. I could see nothing in me, nor around me. I could see only Him.

Obviously, the heart of man is the temple and throne of God. When the Lord picks up a heart to come into, the heavenly sky and kingdom get to life inside that man's heart."
