The Amazing Secret in your Heart: Your Connection to another Dimension Kindle Edition

Your heart is more than just a Pump !
It came as quite a shock to discover that my heart is much, much
more than just a pump. Your heart and mine is also a generator
sending out electro-magnetic vibrations.
The electro-magnetic output of your heart is 5000 times more
powerful than your brain. Actually your heart is like an autopilot,
programmed to guide you to a place of rest and peace and your
Ultimate Home.
For many years we have accepted war, violence and
aggression as the only way. I have discovered that a new kind
of civilization is rising from the gloom and misery of our lost
and hopeless world. Our hearts are moving us towards a
civilization where Love, Compassion and Forgiveness are the
norm. A civilization where the wisdom of the heart, not the head,
guides and controls our future. We are searching for a new world,
a better place where the heart rules.
This is the story of how we are getting there.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

This is a story about a heart attack !
It's a story about my thoughts, feelings and response to a life shattering experience . . . . . . . . . except that I was not shattered.
I am sharing my story because a heart attack or a disaster even more dire does not have to be a catastrophe.

My experience has helped me to discover a few remarkable things:
Life has Purpose, the Universe is Infinite and there is Intelligence behind all that we see around us.
It came as quite a shock to discover that my heart is much, much more than just a pump. Your heart and mine is also a generator sending out electro-magnetic vibrations. The electro-magnetic output of your heart is 5000 times more powerful than your brain.

Vince DaCosta (1930 - ) was born in Kingston, Jamaica and spent the first 30 years of his life in that beautiful Caribbean island of the West Indies. He was educated at Calabar College and was outstanding in the sporting events of Football (Soccer), Cricket and especially Track and Field athletics. He followed closely in the footsteps of Herb McKenley (Jamaica's Helsinki Olympics winner - 1952) and was often referred to as the young McKenley. He represented his college in the annual Athletic Championships where the best of the island's athletes competed.

Vince immigrated to Canada in 1961 and quickly became involved with the Toastmasters International organization. He moved quickly through the various Leadership levels and became an International Director in 1986. During this phase of his activities he excelled in Public Speaking and filled his home and office with trophies, plaques, citations and certificates achieved through his speaking skills. This was excellent preparation for his life's ambition to become a Public Speaker and Leader in the field of Personal Development. Finally he blended his experience, communication skills and energy and authored three books.

His first book "Influence Persuade and Win" became the text for an annual course at Humber Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning, one of the leading Corporate Education Centers in Ontario Canada. Subsequently he authored "Life One-0-One - Find your Purpose", a discourse on some of the fundamental techniques for meeting the everyday challenges of life.

His third book "The Amazing Secret in your Heart - Your connection to another Dimension" deals with the emotional power hidden in our hearts. He envisions a dramatic transformation if we learn to live heart centered lives. He foresees a Shift in Consciousness and a New World rising from the confusion and hopelessness of our present world.

5.0 out of 5 stars I sincerely beg everyone to read this book, Self-Improvement at its finest!! A better world will result!!
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2015

The message of this book is one of the most important messages that someone can ever receive. It addresses what is needed for self-improvement as well as world-improvement (which by the way results from self-improvement as explained in the book). It is very easy to conclude early in the book that the author Vince DaCosta is one of the kindest men that you will find walking this Earth. I really enjoyed his writing style as the book was very easy to read and I enjoyed even more the wisdom and advice, the sharing of some of the author's life experiences, but most of all the important message.

The important message is, that we need to stop and think deeply and make some changes, that not only improve our own quality of life, but the quality of life for the world in general. The author teaches how to do this in the book, he provides many different topics to think about. It is often times hard to find a book that will really teach you something and make you grow spiritually and this book does just that. It is by far one of the best books that I have ever picked up. I am certainly looking forward to reading the other books by this author.

No matter how much of an open-mind you believe that you have, this book will open it further and improve your perspective. I wish everyone on this planet would read this book because it would surely cause a transformation in this world that would be beyond our best expectations. If you want to be a better person and help make the world a better place, then this book is a "Must-Read"

5.0 out of 5 stars Fill your heart with love
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2016

My life is always a work in progress. One can only hope the same is true for others. The work I do is to create in my life as much positive as it is possible for me to influence, to see everything through the prism of love, including my own growth and changing. My time is coming to an end. Maybe not tomorrow or the day after but sooner than I would wish. I think all of us when we approach the end of our lives begin to think more about how love impacts life than about how as and individual we can create impact. Love, it seems to me is a universal which people turn away from in the acquisitive years of their youth or the necessity to deal with raising a family, those kinds of things. This book is about how one can create a love in the heart and the mind that over shadows the needs of life, that leads to peace and quietude in respect to the acceptance of all that is around us, including all things. So, I enjoyed the book a great deal even though my bent is not to get involved in self help books or projects so much as it is to work on my attitudes myself. The book has great merit and is grounded in very sound thought. It roundly deserves the five stars I give it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Come Shift with Me
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2016
VinceDaCosta has created a user's handbook for those just now awakening to what has come to be known as the Global Consciousness Shift. In The Amazing Secret in your Heart: Your Connection to another Dimension, DaCosta uses a personal life-changing experience--a life-threatening heart attack--to develop an account of ever-deepening insights into life as a richer, more multi-dimensional reality.

The Global Consciousness Shift is by now pretty well-known, especially by the New Age crowd that promoted it. Still, there are less woo-woo sources that have, over the last several decades, fed supporting evidence into that idea in the form of consciousness research and the general popularization of quantum mechanics theory. Classical Newtonian physics has taken a serious blow from the revelations such research has produced, and with it the blind assumption of a purely material reality. Chatter about other dimensions and parallel universes has become common on social media and within the scope of YouTube. DaCosta is adding his own personal confirmation to this phenomenon.

It is evident that DaCosta has done his homework. He has familiarized himself with many aspects of the alternate reality playbook. He has investigated, among other esoteric subjects, the evidence for out-of-body experiences, the near-death experience, the power of conscious intention, the placebo effect, the dynamics of consciousness and electro-magnetic fields, meditation, and miraculous healing, much of which he presents accompanied by anecdotes and first-person accounts. He can talk the talk.

Interspersed with these highly-fascinating passages are departures into more mundane disquisitions on the anatomy and function of the physical heart, his heart surgery, and dietary and behavioral recommendations for heart-healthy living. In other words, DaCosta switches back and forth between subjective and objective points of view, between feeling-oriented and strictly factual levels of reality. To me, this is occasionally jarring. It's like being dragged out of a benign universe of infinite possibilities into a confrontation with a hard-nosed Newtonian sort of backlash. Anything-is-possible moments are juxtaposed with watch-your-salt-intake warnings. Consensus reality may be an illusion, but that doesn't mean that you should let yourself get blindsided by arterial plaque.

Early on in DaCosta's book, supporting quotations from biblical scripture begin to appear as validation from an authoritative source of major points in his presentation. These quotations become more frequent as the book progresses. At first, I found them innocuous, wondering if DaCosta was using scientific research to validate scripture or vice-versa. Later, as the quotations multiplied, I became certain that DaCosta was promoting a Christian agenda. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, but it does tend to define a more specific audience for what he has to say. The more secular-minded of his readers may find their patience tested a wee bit as the book progresses.

Ultimately, DaCosta argues for a kind of Christian utopian collectivism as the answer to both the world's and life's problems. Nothing wrong with that either, and followers of the Man from Galilee will cheer DaCosta's vision, but it is not evident to me that his deft use of cutting-edge scientific research will bolster conversion to his traditional religious persuasion. That is probably not even his primary intent. It's just the way he sees things.

It is clear that Vince DaCosta is an intelligent, sincere, and kind man who experienced a traumatic event in his life that caused him to explore its greater meaning and its larger implications. This is his book's universal appeal. He carries forth that appeal skillfully in terms of his rhetorical presentation (he is a professional toastmaster), and in the quality of his writing. It is to DaCosta's credit that he is open to the new physics and to what is loosely called the paranormal. What he has created is a niche book, eminently saleable to a specific audience, but somewhat limited in appeal by the context in which it is framed.

5.0 out of 5 stars The world could use more books like this one.
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2016
I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an unbiased review.

I found this book to have added value to my life. I have read a number of books on similar topics and found this to confirm much of what I had read elsewhere. If books like The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, or books from authors like David Deida or Gregg Braden interest you then this book would be right up your alley.

The emphasis on the heart is something I had heard very little of before. I have heard some vague reports of findings that the heart, stomach and other organs can perform functions previously thought to only be possible with the brain, but this elaborated on that much more than anything else I have read.

Books like these are important. The point that individual spiritual development is the key to a better world is a point that needs to pressed farther towards the center of public focus, and this book contributes well to that cause.

Not everyone's mind will be open to topics like these, but I found this book to be well-written and to communicate a compassionate and genuine message of love.
