“Emotions are very powerful, and our brain is nothing when compared to the heart. The heart has an intelligence of its own. But it is indeed connected to the rest of us, including our mind. So what this means is that our emotions are far more powerful than our reasoning. You know, like when a praying mantis gets his head chopped off by a female after sex; he knows he is going to die, but he still can't help himself and stop it. A large majority of us are like that. We think we are superior to animals, but that only applies to the amount of complexity of our problems. For a large portion of society, self-destruction is inevitable in the process of spiritual self-discovery guided by emotional impulses.”
