A medium. So we \u2018re actually reacting to the presentation rather than through reality of the events.&quot; The solution he offers lies within the techniques of heart-rhythm meditation and specifically in a practice called &quot;Contemplation&quot;, where you learn to connect with the hearts of others in a way that the intellect can't reach.&amp;nbsp; The hidden potential in others and in ourselves does not need a medium. You experience that person or situation direction.&amp;nbsp; By opening our heart, connecting to the hearts of others, we reconnect to something much more universal.&amp;nbsp; Something is revealed that wasn't evident before.
