Feeling Hearts
Be Love, Live Love, Share Love!
One day I told my Gurudev, "Thakur, you are so kind, you love so much." He replied, "No, I don’t love." I was taken back. I was young, fresh to the ashram as a renunciate monk. I asked, "If you do not love, then what do you do?" With a smile, Thakur taught me the greatest lesson of my life, one that would change the entire course of my thoughts and philosophy of life in later years. He simply said, "Love cannot be done; love happens." - Bodhi
Be Love
Pure Love is the essential state of unified being; it is our true, innermost nature. When our false identification with the physical drops away, our spirit naturally manifests love that is transcendental, eternal, and abiding.
Experiencing love that is rooted in attachment, we gradually realize its limitations. Our search for love turns inward. Through continual contemplation and meditation, the mind is purified. Love, the innermost state of soul consciousness, spontaneously and effortlessly rises, like fragrance from a flower.
Live Love
Love is the language of nature, of the universe, of the divine. It unifies and sustains the creative process. It is the heart of every atom, every cell in the universe, uniting all apparent fragmentation. All human effort finds its ultimate fulfillment in love.
Everything in the universe responds with a higher vibration when exposed to even the sound or written form of the word ‘love’. In the absence of love’s energy, everything falls into disharmony and is ultimately destroyed if love is not restored.
It is love that dispels darkness, fear, death, and destruction. The great saints and sages rise above the need for love and self-preservation at a physical level. They transcend all limitations to enter that boundless space of love that pervades and preserves individual and universal existence.
Choosing the unifying power of love in every circumstance, we live love and come home to the ultimate symphony of love divine.
Share Love
We are born to nurture the seed of Love that permeates every cell of our body. Attuning our body-mind with the soul, we establish ourselves in Love, in Compassion, Prayer, and Meditation. Without expecting anything in the external world, we share love, transcending all barriers within and around us. There is no other way to heal negativity, greed, and violence.
Just watch your breath with all your heart. Witness the Universe flowing through you, blessing you from within and without, healing the world all around you. You and I cannot fight global negativity, greed, or violence directly. We begin to stop it in our own mind by practicing active love and compassion for ourselves and all those around us. Your love will ripple over to the other, and flow out to the world.
