Man is not born to suffer. The human being is born to enjoy. It is our inherent right, for joy is within us. We are children of light. We are the manifestation of that eternal essence which can only be called love. As we go deeper through our meditational and spiritual practices, the movements of […]
LOVE
You love because you can't help it. And when you can't just help it then it comes to your consciousness that you are in love. And the consciousness then would not question the why and the wherefore. Because where is love? Wherefore, where is love and what is it for? Wherefore? It is just there. It exists and the more you try to love the less you get out of love. So love needs no trying. Love needs just being. You can never question why you love another. Because the very moment you would ask the question 'Why I love her?' - because she's got beautiful hair or a lovely nose, lovely ears and all the blah, blahs, - then love ceases and the cessation through questioning, loses the value of love.
Love thy neighbor as thyself
Know that if you are happy (or unhappy) today, you will be unhappy (or happy) tomorrow, or the next day, or the day after. Love is beyond all happiness and all sorrow, because happiness and sorrow are transitory. If you want to become lovable, become loving first. For if you are loving, automatically you become […]

Love is the welling of the heart. The heart feels the closeness and oneness where your heartbeat spontaneously feels the heartbeat of your […]
The root of worship lies in the subject, not in the object.
There are various levels of love, ranging from the very grossest to the highest spiritual level. One can love in a very limited way by physical means only. One can love in a higher form where body and mind are involved. The highest level comes when mind, body and spirit are involved. That forms the […]
The secret of happiness is not in belongings, but in belonging.
When someone says, “I don’t love such-and-such a person,” the fault is not in the object. The fault lies in the subject, because the subject has failed to recognize what love is. Understanding does not require analysis. Analysis can only bring you acquired knowledge which is far different from inner knowledge. Inner knowledge is wisdom. […]
There is some truth in the saying that love is blind
As we do our best to live a good life, many things develop. Bhakti and love develop as we perform right action. In right action there is so much love that our very action becomes a dedication, and that dedication becomes an offering. That very offering is none else but devotion and love. There is […]
