Love is Divine


"I LOVE U" is one of the most common proclamations used today.But do I realize its profound implications?It is so natural, yet so complex.It brought joy sometimes and sorrow at other times.But sooner i realised love is most understanding yet it is the most misunderstood by the world today.I believe it the great unifying force.It is mistaken to bring happiness always while it actually teaches us to drive joy even in the trouble that we face.Love is so simple yet it is hard and difficult to describe.Today love is often wrongly associated with the fulfillment of ones expectation.But what Swami said about it as - "true love is unchanging.It is Divine.Love is God,Live in love"Love is eternal.

Love is a silken cord and with love in our pure hearts we can conquer anything tackle any problem because love as He explains is one's natural quality and is present as Divine energy in each one of us.The more we love the more it grows.Love gives and forgives.He explained that Duty without love is deplorable and love without duty is divine.

A more significant truth of His glory is to understand Him as a world teacher.The centre of His teachings is Love,He says - ' Service to mankind has to be inspired by love, duty is to be performed with love." Worship has to be followed with love. Love what Baba says is God.Therefore we need to live in love and this love radiates in the soul of man as the spark of Divinity.We have to experience this love to rise the spiritual heights and that alone can lead us to ultimate goal i.e. self realization.

The only wealth we can carry after death is the love of Lord.We should strive to earn that wealth during life.This can be done by selfless devotion and love.To earn Gods love we  have to dedicate our time, body and actions to the service of the Lord.On an occassion a devotee said to Swami- 'Let this bond of love be forever and I want to be born again in your next Avatar to love you and serve you'He also said -'Let this relationship of love be permanent and never changing.' Swami said - "Why should you have such a doubt?I am powerful magnet and always attract a pure needle and metal.If metal is not attracted, it is because of the rust and dust covering the metal. So keep yourself pure and your relationship will be the same forever.This is true in case of every relation if we are pure the relationship is eternal.

Swamis love has no limits.It has transformed thousand of hearts,its like a circle which has no beginning and no end.It is all embracing and ever expanding,reaching out to one and all.The amount of love and concern Swami has for His devotees is much more than the words 'love' and 'concern' can convey.

 Swami says My life is my message and my message is love.It is His love that He has blessed all of us with love , compassion and kindness.He has shown the path and the goal.He has illumined the seekers path and filled the heart with confidence and courage so that he could undertake his spirirual journey from whatever point he is in.He is with us guiding and guarding in our journey to our goal.

May we develop this Divine Love.
Let me be the channel, Lord,through which your love can flow where I find darkness, let me bring a warm, hopeful glow.
